Nardwuar vs. Black Eyed Peas (2010)

[@jonvia]

There was a time for about ten years that every hit song was a BlackEyedPeas song. What an amazing group, both performance wise and writing wise.

[@IkigaiJin]

WOW, the first interview I have seen where Nardwuar comes out of STATUE, talks and goes back into STATUE!

[@XTheJenovaProjectX]

BlaqFrost Ikigai I think he does it in the Charlie Murphy interview also

True that but now we have the uzi interview as well

[@patrickfreitag1970]

Rare moment in History

[@standardsuccess3100]

He’s so great at attempting to include everybody and it’s epic like everybody talked,even when they expected to stay quiet and you can almost feel the energy boost

[@rythaguy1893]

“Fergie what does Beyoncé taste like??” That was outta pocket and Nardwuar’s ass knew it lmaooo

The art of confusion

[@lkmjin]

She was like: "what do you meaaaaan i for sure dont know that" wink

[@chrisrubright3522]

It wasn’t at a pocket stop being so sensitive. It was just like a trick question or wordplay.

[@rythaguy1893]

@@chrisrubright3522 look at you, responding to 3yr old comments talking about stop being sensitive

[@fishbonesinc]

He broke him outta statue mode, just gotta ask him about records and he can't resist answering.

[@iamhereblossom1588]

I feel he just didn't want to be rude. What a sweet dude.

[@andregomez350]

did yall not read the executive producer for their 1st record was Eazy-E

[@madimakes]

i know right they glossed over that one

[@riderzinc]

I wanted to hear any stories Will had about Eazy E

[@ill619__]

I saw that too.. No love for Eazy damn shame

[@sewerslvtkitten]

I had to go back i thought i was reading it wrong. Sad they didn't speak about E.

This is one of the best interviews I have ever seen. I am just getting into Nardwuar now and am appreciating your years of work! Amazing!! Your passion is incredible and so energizing. Rock on Nardwuar!!

[@flipmode6345]

This man is a national treasure, thank you narduar

[@jackfordmac]

I remember those scarves Will.I.am has on, totally captured a moment in time

[@Jbayz]

Oh dear Lord I died when he turned around and said "we'll talk about that later"

[@nicholascesparza]

Yeah, Eazy E was the first dude that put BEP on. Ruthless Records was their first label, when they were called Atbann Klan.

[@wilbs1999]

Nardwuar your the best! I love seeing how excited people get when you interview them. Your a good man!

[@joshuagoboom]

fergie surprised me at how many things she actually knew. props to her

[@jdcritchfield]

Nardwuar is a balm in these troubling times. This is my decompression space. GO NARD!

[@Ninja4771]

Fergie made Nardwuar say "wow" now that is rare

[@littleslean]

I love how every video makes me laugh and I always end up learning a few things and seeing how much out there is to know. Keep popping tabs open to mentioned artists KZbin page or Wikipedia.

[@adrianadreaaamer6456]

apples smile is the most magical thing ever

[@garys.1415]

You can tell that Fergie doesn't like not being the main focus. lol GOOD! :P

[@JSB-2Z-2K]

greatest interviewer ever hands down

[@AlexOnFyre]

I'm starting to think that nardwuar's entire interviewing career is just a way for him to hawk his collection of vinyls to awe-struck millionaires.

[@williamholloway2564]

it's still a fresh interview, 8 years later.

[@DJEvillincoln]

This is the best interview ever..!

[@abark]

Fergie is around 34 years old in this interview and looks like shes 60.

When he asked Fergie, “what does beyonce taste like?” 😏

[@udhdsi]

I'm really happy to hear that the guys from Blood of Abraham are doing well. They're a really good group.

[@SheenylHassan]

Take a shot every time Will says, "Check this out."

[@loganburnette7984]

Nard was all over fergie with the mic. I wish he would have let Will finish some of his stories.

[@renaissancemen1]

Logan Burnette she hot.

[@romeopanelli2639]

This is my 16th Nardwuare video in a row.

[@kingdomcitizenship5613]

The more I watch Nardwaur interviews the more I think he tries to lowkey expose the amount they sample other artist

[@booberlink]

An interview with Axl rose would be great!

[@ubtri]

always educational. thx nardwuar!

[@cliffyisguapo31]

eazy-e produced that album? wtf

[@andersonkai1094]

Nah, executive producers just pay finances

[@gregdahlen4375]

idk if politicians would wanna be interviewed by nard cuz he'd bring up every questionable thing from their past that everyone else forgot about

[@MrPhukface]

clearly atban klan, blowfly, mannie fresh, and incredible bongo band are the thread/fiber that holds the hip hop game together.

[@cameron_fairchild]

miami 305 bass more than mannie.

[@JvMatt]

I think after the album Elephunk and the controversial song "Where is the love?", things took a weird turn for them. On the Monkey Business they did a song "My Humps"...enough said. They lost some focus.

[@zeroxgi]

ive never seen him break the freeze at the end ahahha awesome

[@j_freed]

Like she doesn't know what Beyoncé tastes like!! 🍕

[@sasha5566]

wow, great interview.

[@cheezus9625]

Not only could it be, it definitely is. My point though, is that even though these groups have influenced a lot of artists, it's bad television to re-use so many of them. Part of the fun of Nardwuar is the surprise of which obscure reference he's going to pull out of an artists past and let them explain the connection to the audience. When he uses the same references over and over again though, I think the novelty wears off.

[@J.5.M.]

he broke his pose! haha, fucking love nardwaur

[@BTuna1]

Did I get that straight, Brian Austin Green once accused Apl. of stealin' his weed, lol.

[@TheEots]

Nardwuar is King of the music intervew

[@staphinfection]

The ending is soooo awesome!

[@mcnowski]

If I ever made a time machine it wouldn't be a Delorean, it would be a dropped Honda Civic, and Id go back to the 90s and pick up all the chicks....

[@SamanthaBrown2010]

This was good !

[@rocaw]

Every time he passes the mic to App is like he switch fast to other memeber, not letting him finish his sentences lol

[@phug0id]

That's because those are essential to a lot of people in the black community that are around the age of the rappers he interviews. It's not about the questions... it's about the answers and reactions!

[@THECLARENCES]

Nard rules. Period. xoxo The Clarences

[@Shack504]

This Needs to Have more Views !!!

[@OrphanSeasun]

I remember hearing a lot of good things about this new hiphop group The Black Eyed Peas on my favorite college radio station. I caught up with them 4 or 5 years later and I was amazing at how shit they were. I assume they had a good first album.

[@ggthewhale]

@@DJizdawikidzt 😳

[@yourkidkabaap]

How does Nardwuar mention their first record without asking them about first being signed by Easy E?????

[@jojosavage]

Im giddy! Thats the closest ive ever seen him hold the mic to their mouths

I love this interview! Fergie's so cute :) And the end is so funny!

[@The45DIZZYARTS]

Eazy E Was So AHead Of His Time RIP

[@Steve_643]

Eazy also signed JJ Fad to Ruthless Records and had Dre produce their album between Eazy Does It and NWA debut Straight outta Compton.

[@runexpectedly]

no, i think it means that lots of people watched this video, and then watched that video

[@Bryan-iy9nk]

Teresa Giudice looks so good here

[@MarsHottentot]

I like the HUGE difference between the way the hip hop community and the indie rock / punk community react to Nardwuar. The hip hop people are generally thrilled and really respect the work that Nard puts into his interviews. The indie punkers, however, generally see him as a threat - for the same reason. Mostly because they are full of shit and Nardwuar exposes that element. Hip Hop guys generally admit to their shit and move on. The indie guys whole careers stem on their mythologies.

[@Monscent]

Could also be that some of those classics are appreciated by lotsa rappers!

[@moozycla6]

Nard: So, tell me Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas, what does Beyoncé tastes like? 2:57 Fergie: WHAT!.. What a sudden plot twist..

[@stefan_4508]

Moozy Mathers bruh she was getting big nervous Nardwuar was boutta expose her

[@MotleyStew]

"Dropped Civics and Flip Chicks." Oh.. the memories! PMSL

[@hardychurchill8644]

He keeps pulling the mic away from apl de ap mid sentence

[@Monscent]

I get what youre saying, but if those actually are the significant influences it would also be a bit weird and inaccurate of him to leave those "gems" out just because he has showed em before to other artists... In either case I indeed know what youre saying about him re-using references, but I dont think its THAT bad as he always finds unique stuff as well!

[@richyrich909]

i wish he would have busted out a wild orchid album lol

[@max2082]

HOLY CRAP Nardwuar is like a lexicon pop music of knowledge.

[@sauceboogie174]

That album said executive producer Eric "easy e" write!! Damn man

[@moay02]

You gotta get the original Black Eyed Peas. The original group had a black girl.

[@iurimachado1195]

Now they have another black girl doing shows with them

[@sperrotta91]

9:45 BRILLIANT!

[@Garblegox]

+sperrotta91 Only time I've EVER seen him break from that pose.

[@gamesrock9160]

keep up the spirits. free world

[@shomala]

fergie looks so bored, I use to talk to other Dj's at parties back then and when the topic of BEP would come up it always started with "you mean BEP before or after Fergie?" Keep on rockin in the free world

[@bananerdigg]

if diffrent people were influenced by the same music, why would he not bring the same record? nardwuar ftw

[@PREPPY850]

I think your coin idea was a great idea I think you should try to do it again 😊

[@SJHamler]

Did Nardwuar actually break at the end??

[@DocSkribblez]

To answer Fergie's question at 4:41, yes he did! And the group was called Balistyx

[@videowarrior5143]

Nardwuar should've asked them about Libby Curiel .

[@Kienthuacuanhanloai]

this is wholesome

[@WickedMo13]

1st time nardwuar ever broke his freeze poze, lol

[@MultiOdom]

Thats the first and probably last time that i saw Nardwuar move after he paused lol

[@gregdahlen4375]

it's cuz they kept talking at him, he didn't unfreeze at first

[@DeconvertedMan]

oh wow! I know of that group! XD :D

[@NausicaaLeGuin]

lol amazing. love the end :)

[@yourkidkabaap]

Apl is like waiting for his cue when he can stop that 32 tooth smile

[@animallova97]

LOL Out Of My Head. "Whoa whoa whoa! How'd the bridge go? i think i drank to much. Oh wait, I think i know. Ok, ok, HERE WE GO!" lol that IS a fun song. lol BEP rocks

[@GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

Yeah they used to do real gritty hip hop and then it became pop slowly but surely

[@LardossenCruiser-X]

Nardwuar broke the freeze!

[@GBlunted]

lol @ "Yma Sumac - Bo mambo" being the 'FEATURED VIDEO" at the top of the videos on the right. That's a little creepy I think because that name is not in the Title, Description, or Tags for this video!! Meaning that KZbin is confident enough to actually listen to the video and hear keywords (likely repeated more than once?) and include them (words it thought it heard mentioned in the video) as part of their formula that determines video relationships...

[@eyeroll5060]

I think its obvious that black eyed peas side hustle should be canned veggies. No gimmick needed
