Trivia

Did you know that?!

  • The highly renowned album track "Shut Up" features great interplay between Taboo and their new member that time who is Fergie
  • Will.i.am feature lots of unique ideas and fresh sounds on their digital-step ragga of "Hey Mama"
  • They intentionally created a crazy stupid rhyme with their party track "Lets Get Retarded which was changed to "Let's Get It Started" in order to be played in radio stations and this party track can be danced where you can bop your head like having epilepsy
