ADV: The Black Eyed Peas Interview

The following conversation took place few weeks ago between my agent and I.

 

*ring ring* *ring ring*

Kenny: Hello?
Agent: Eh, Kenny ah. You free on the 25th September or not ah?
Kenny: 25th September ah? Can lah. What’s going on?
Agent: Something big, Kenny. It’s so freaking huge it’s not even funny. 25th September is Guinness’s 250th Anniversary and they are having a worldwide celebration on that day. Out of five cities in the world, only KL was selected as the sole Asian destination to host the Arthur’s Day. We want you to come to KL.
Kenny: Oh. Ok. What do I have to do?
Agent: Guinness is bringing The Black Eyed Peas to perform at Sunway Lagoon on that day. We want you to interview them. You interested or not?
Kenny: Oh. Can loh.
Agent: Ok sweet then I talk to you later kthxbai.
Kenny: Bye.

And so, I went home from a busy day at work just like any other day, curled up in my bed and prepared for a night’s sleep.

As I was lying on my bed, a small teeny weeny little voice crept into my head and went, “omg omg omg…”

“OMG OMG OMG OMFG OMFG.”

“KENNY!!!”

“Do you even understand the magnitude of what you’ve just been told?”

“The Black Eyed Peas!”

 

“THE BLACK EYED PEAS!!!”

“THE BLACK EYED PEAS!!!”

“YOU ARE GOING TO BE INTERVIEWING THE BLACK EYED PEAS!!!!!”

Drenched in dripping cold sweat, I sprung out of my bed immediately and screamed, “AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!”

Is this really happening?! Am I really gonna be interviewing the Black Eyed Peas?! Seriously, if this one goes through, it is going to be one golden opportunity of a lifetime!

I couldn’t sleep that night. I was as excited as a teenager discovering porn on the Internet. All I did was staying up the whole entire night thinking how to act when I meet Fergie and the rest of the band. For sure I am gonna be nervous like hell. I think I might even cry. And Big Girls Don’t Cry.

How am I even gonna start the interview? I don’t even know what questions to ask!

“Hello Fergie can I have your number wtf?”

I don’t know. I really really don’t know. Which is why I wanna put this out to all kennysia.com readers.

Help me interview The Black Eyed Peas!

Please, please, please. If you can help me come up with some fun, creative and interesting interview questions to ask The Black Eyed Peas, leave me a comment in the box below. Surely, there must be stuff you’re always curious about the BEP?

When the band arrives here for Arthur’s Day, I will talk to them face-to-face. And I will ask those questions on your behalf. So you win, I win!

As a token of my appreciation, 5 of you who asked the best interview questions will be rewarded with two tickets to attend Arthur’s Day and watch The Black Eyed Peas perform live in concert.

So here’s your chance to ask will.i.am, Fergie, Taboo and Apl.d everything that you ever wanted to know about them, The Black Eyed Peas or their music in general. Ask them anything you want.

Like, how did they come up with the name Black Eyed Peas?

What is the meaning of the lyrics to the song My Humps? (When they order char kueh teow, they don’t put clams)

So many questions, so little time.

Let’s all do this on Arthur’s Day

AD: Arthur Guinness had been spotted wandering around KL nightspots! What the heck is the 250 year old fella doing there!

  2. this question is for you kenny, where the hell did u manage to get that pic??? that’s must be pretty embarrasing though for her, i love fergie…
    and to BEP: who’s the source of creativity for your song?? is it a group thingy or just someone who’s talented within the group?? and how many hours do you practice to rap everyday? (ok, the last question is crap, omit that)

  3. Can you hold this “kennysia.com” sign for a minute and say a few words to my readers so they know I am not faking this up? (while you shooting the video from one of your SLRs)

  4. Hi, will any of you ever snatch the mic over from the award winner @ an award show and say that he/she doesn’t deserves it?

  5. Question to Fergie:
    Your first role was voice over work for the animated cartoon “Peanuts” and now you are in the group of “Beans” which Black Eyed Peas.. what you think about this relation?

  6. This obviously isn’t your first time in Malaysia, apart from being on the job performing worldwide, are there anything else that attracted you to this country of malaysia?

  7. Whenever people talk about the black eye peas these days, they will have these energetic, fun having and mind blowing image on their mind. I understand that the music on the fourth album Monkey Business are more to party type music. Is there by chance, we will see something different in the next coming album ? Something which reflects life or maybe yourself?

  8. There is no doubt on the success of your latest album The E.N.D. Looking forward down the line, do you guys have any plans to venture out and broaden your career prospects in other areas of the entertainment industry such as taking up a main acting role, theatrical performances or even dancing with the stars? (for each of them).
    With your outstanding career achievements currently, have any thoughts cross your mind that, this is enough and shifting your priorities to families and having babies lol? (For Fergie)

  9. How much on average, do you guys earn when doing a concert like this?
    I’m sure that during your shows, there will be rowdy/crazy fans. Share with us some of your most unforgettable experiences during your concerts.
    Your hit song, “Where is the Love” promotes peace and has a really deep, meaningful message in it, like peace.
    In your opinion, what song(s) is/are the most inspiring to you, and what is the message in it?

  10. How is the relationship within the B.E.P.? Over the years, when we see members of a particular group/band start coming out with solo albums, they tend to drift apart. It will be such a heartbreak to all B.E.P. fans if this were to ever happen.
    If result of above question is positive, how are the solo experiences contributing to the group?

  11. Hey Fergie, A lot of dudes have been comparing the hotness between you and Megan Fox. Personally, who do you think is hotter?
    Black eyed peas, why black eyed peas?
    Why and how and what inspired you the name where is the love?

  12. Whenever people talk about the black eye peas these days, they will have these energetic, fun having and mind blowing image on their mind. I understand that the music on the fourth album The E.N.D are more to party type music. Is there by chance, we will see something different in the next time? Maybe some music with slower tempo, music which reflects life or yourself.

  13. Ask them to comment on Kanye West who recently interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech in MTV Video Music Awards 2009? Mind that it was her first time winning the VMA. So, what would the Black Eyed Pea would have done if they were in TS’s position? Will they wallop K.West right there and then? Or be cool about it?
    And to Will.I.Am, what actually happened between him and Perezhilton, who accused him of assault at an afterparty in Toronto months ago? Can I just add that, Perezhilton is not worth the skin on his knuckles, or anyone for that matter.

  14. Would B.E.P compose a theme song for kennysia.com? The song could be like “My Hairs” or “Don’t Phunk with Kenny Sia”
    will B.E.P ever going to do a collaboration with the local hip hop artist such as Danny, Point Blanc, joe Flizzow bla bla bla
    Hope I can win this haha XD

  15. Question for BEP:
    Did any one of you knew that one day you are going to be this famous?
    Was this ( fame & fortune )something you guys have worked hard for or opportunity just came knocking on your door one day?
    To Fergie: What is that one thing you wish you could do but can’t due to who you are in the music industry?
    To will.i.am : If you could be a superhero, who would you be and why?

  16. Hey Kenny..firstly congrats! Not everyone can get the opportunity to interview them. You are so lucky.
    I would like to ask the BEP what is their (BEP) dreams? Have they accomplished or achieved their dream? Do they have the same vision for as a group or as successful individuals?
    I know you can do it Kenny. All the best and good luck πŸ™‚

  17. With individual members going out to pursue their solo careers like Will.I.Am and Fergie, was it difficult for everyone to come back together after all the success (both as individuals and as a group) to produce successful albums 1 after another?

  18. Most of their singles has different distinctive sounds (My humps and I gotta feeling, loved tht song btw)and yet all of them still emerge in the billboard top charts. What is the inspiration behind the songs? What is the secret of creating that balance in their futuristic sounds that allows people all over the world to start going crazy when they hear “monday, tuesday, wednesday & thursday..”?
    Congrats Kenny. Have been an avid fan for years

  19. Hey Kenny, I would like a question like this.
    To BEP: Do you guys drink Guinness before, got drunk and wake up somewhere you don’t remember you went to?

  20. Did members of BEP see themselves as what they are today when they form the group in 1995?(apart from Fergie who joined in 2003)
    What was the initial motive/idea/inspiration/dream to form this group in 1995 and have u guys achieve it today? Is the initial dream still the same as today’s?
    BTW, please tell will.i.am that he is damn freaking cool please.TY =)

  21. Will.I.Am from Jamaican descent, Apl from a Filipino mother, Taboo from a Mexican blood and Fergie with a lil bit of Irish blood…
    You guys are so diverse…
    When Kim Hill left the group, you guys searched for any particular characteristic to ensure the diversity or it’s just pure coincidence?
    (before Fergie joined the bandwagon)

  22. Question to BEP:
    Black Eyed Peas made huge impact on our world today.
    But is Black Eyed Peas just another band out there that broke sales record?
    If not,What is the orientation of Black Eyed Peas now; is it just to increase band’s fame & publicity, or do you all have something else to achieve besides that?

  23. The new album ‘The E.N.D’ Energy never die. What kind of energy is that? and what makes you keep the energy(BEP’s music) flowing and growing strong.

  24. To Fergie: Nicole Scherzinger was previously supposed to replace a former BEP female singer. How do you think your life would’ve turned out to be like today had Nicole taken your place at BEP instead?

  25. I know I’m greedy but I’ve got 2 possible questions.
    1) Every album Black Eyed Peas comes out with becomes a huge success! What would you say are the 3 essential items for this winning formula everytime round?
    2) Are you aware that black eyed peas in hot curry is a staple dish for most indians around the world? It’s called dhal and usually eaten with chapati. Your popularity worldwide can be seen as an ironic similarity. What do you think?
    Either way, all the best Kenny! Do us lay(wo/)man Asians proud! =D

  26. Question for BEP
    I understand that you write your own songs and all of you are very creative people. Do you think you can give us a few liners on 1Malaysia? Maybe hum a tune for us too?

  27. To Fergie: You are the only married member of the B.E.P. How do you balance your marriage and work, especially since all the other three members of your band have no such commitment? Do you plan to balance your work and marriage indefinitely or do you see yourself ending up in a situation where you have to put one over the other?

  28. Hey Kenny,
    Here is a tip I picked up from a friend who is in publishing:
    Don’t ask questions they’ve answered a 1000 times before.
    Meaning, the origins of the band name, their working relationship etc. which can be easily obtained with a quick google. It shows unprofessionalism.
    You feeling nervous after the last footballer interview?
    Don’t worry!

  29. How was it happen that make four of you form BEP? And, why there is only a gal, Fergie in BEP? Why don’t make it balance, two guys and two gals?

  30. Ask them about durians!
    Have you ever eaten durians before? Do you like it? Would you eat it again? Would you eat a whole durian to get a free supply of Guinness for the rest of your life?
    πŸ˜€

  31. one of the most memorable early B.E.P. song for me is Bebop, which I understand went crazy in the Phillipines due to the country name mentioned in the song.Is there any plans to include new elements in B.E.P.’s future songs such as a different language or a type of slang that B.E.P. would be comfortable with?

  32. how do you come up with quirky song names that people will remember..just like *snaps fingers* that?!
    (remember to ask like what i instructed. you gotta snap your finger)

  33. We know you guys are really creative so try to answer this question as creatively as possible …
    Imagine you can have any super powers in this world..what would that power be and what would you do with it?

  34. Hie Kenny. (:
    Dear BEP, who is behind the mixing and creativity of your songs?
    BEP, how have your huge success made an impact in your own personal lives and how do you guys deal with all the fame and popularity?
    BEP, what makes you different from other people who are in the industry at this moment?
    BEP, what do you think of the Malaysia crowd?
    Was it difficult to come back together as a team after both Fergie and Will.i.am made their own solo debut?

    fyi,as this song keeps me strong in facing the obstacle of my life which the mistake can never be corrected.

  53. BEP, recently we’ve noticed the change in style of music. It used to be those upbeat hip hop, not its more of club hits material. Where do you get the inspiration for that?

  54. Welcome to Malaysia. I am very much of a patriotic person so I’ll have to say that our country is an amazing country.

    You guys are joining U2’s tour in the fall as the opening act, are you looking forward to that ?

    The “Yes We Can” Obama video was watched by 22 million people. How do you feel about helping the U.S. elections ?

  92. Personally, if you were to ask me to interview the Black Eyed Peas, I will definitely ask this question:
    “How much weed do you smoke whilst coming up with the song lyrics?”
    You’ve got to be pretty high to come up with some of the lyrics they have now.

  93. 1) How Arthur’s Day or Guinness symbolizes B.E.P?
    2) If B.E.P weren’t here in Malaysia during Arthur’s Day, where and what will u guys be doing??

  100. Oits Kenny.(haha cheh, like so close like that actually I do not know you personally but took a picture with you before. wth)
    Anyway, my question is: I understand you guys tour a whole lot especially when releasing new albums and stuff or even to promote certain big events like this, so, I’m sure you guys are on the mission of watching your bank accounts grow. Therefore, what do you guys indulge in with your hard earned mullah? Probably branded goods, luxurious cars, jeweleries or even real estate property?
    Secondly, what normally irks the other party up when working together as a group? Anything in particular like Fergie has bad mood swings or something during certain periods of the month or Taboo does not tolerate certain stuffs like err, people calling him an elephant? wth! This are just noob examples.
    Aiyo, aku nak menang. *fingers crossed

  103. where do you see the future of BEP in the next 10yrs, as a few of you have ventured to produce your own solo album? do you think BEP will still be as strong-willed, hype, energetic & creative as when they produced “where is the love?”

  104. What does it take for Black Eyed Peas to stand out in the music industry? For having able to achieve so much record and bring pop-rock to an entirely new level?

  105. Kenny, I have always been an avid reader of your blog since 2006. However, I’m surprised that you removed the picture of Fergie with her wet pants at the pelvic area.
    Is there something wrong with your editorial integrity?

  106. Fergie:
    I respect the attitude you have as a professional performer. How did you feel when you had to perform on the stage with your wet pants?

  107. how do you come up with the ideas of your new songs ? do you drink guiness to get inspiration ?
    nice pair of boots you have there fergie, what do you think of the shopping experience in Malaysia ?
    have you tried eating satay while driving ?

  108. for ferg.
    if you could choose (you have to actually) to turn into one of the boys in BEP, who would it be?
    and what would be the first thing you’d do as him (or to him :P)?

  109. 1.) Have you tried char kuey tiao MY HUMP???
    2.) Fergie, why do you sometimes look like a man with the constant surprise frown on your face?? (I STILL LOVE YOU, IM JUST CURIOUS!)

  110. 3 questions… errr additional questions for APL πŸ˜€
    1. For BEP – being the successful famous band you are now, are there still goals/dreams/wishes as a band you still hopes to do/get/ achieved?
    2. For Fergie – Was there anyone from your band members who tried to hit off with you? as u surely as hell one sexy gorgeous lady that will be hard to resist by the opposite sex? πŸ™‚
    3. For Apl- Recently, we’ve heard that you’re coming out with your solo album and one of the songs in the album is a song entitled “mama filipina” can you tell us more about this album and does this mean that you’re soon leaving the group?
    Another question for Apl, you are a half-filipino, half african-american.. right? and you were adopted by a kind american man who brought u to the US when you were 14 years old, can you tell us your experience of your growing years in America and how you discover your passion and talents in music?
    What do you miss most about Philippines?
    If you’re going to choose where you would want to stay between America/Philippines, what would you chose and why ?

  111. Qns to Fergie:
    1)How did you feel when you peed on stage during your concert? Did the rest of the BEP crew teased you about it ever since?
    Qns to the band
    2)How did you feel about the whole Kanye West/Taylor Swift drama during the 2009 VMAs, and Obama’s comment of him being a jackass.

  112. q1
    : Do you guys want to know how do malaysian cheers?
    ans:…………………..
    cont from q1
    : instead of just “cheers!!”
    or “For Arthur” for this occsasions. we would just…
    “yammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…SENG!!!!”

  113. I love the BEP since young. You are so lucky! You can ask them, are peas their fav food and i like to know whats their most embarrassing moments ever and how do they get over it? πŸ™‚

  114. Question to BEP:
    So you guys have Pump-ed It with Miserlou by Dick Dale and showed us some Pinoy action with Bebot highlighting apl.de.ap’s roots. My question is with such a diverse range of influences that have been incorporated into your music, will there ever be a chance of a Malaysian traditional song such as Rasa Sayang be used as a sample for your future masterpieces?
    Peace out!

  115. How did the four of you came together? I mean it’s like the four of you are quite from different backgrounds and stuffs I’m sure.
    How did you guys first started and became well known?
    How did the names Fergie, Taboo, Will.I.Am, & Apl.De.Ap came up? Why not use your real names?
    Who’s usually the mother of the group or let’s say, usually bosses around people do stuffs? & also the one who usually slacks around & stuffs like that.
    What do you guys do during your free time? That’s if you have any.. Haha.
    – Just joining for fun, it’ll be good too if I won hahaha! –

  116. Hi, Fergie I know you’re hot, but do you think I’m(Kenny Sia) hot too?
    Puji her at the same time ask a question, one stone kill two humps… I mean birds.

  117. Question for BEP is this;
    Since Arthur’s day celebrates the 250th anniversary that marked the beginning of the guinness drink that is enjoyed by everyone all over the world for over 2 centuries, similarly, does BEP see themselves leaving a legacy or something outstanding and memorable that their fans will also celebrate in years to come?

  118. ask them to sign a few kennysia.com tshirts and give to ur loyal readers who wont be so lucky meeting or attending their concerts.. maybe u can even make bidding to those tshirts for charity causes..
    of course the question to BEP will they allow u to that or not?

  119. ~~~
    Question: What prompted you to shift your genre from hip-hop with an emphasis on wordy lyrics (like in Where is the Love, Don’t Phunk With my Heart, Don’t Lie, etc.);
    to electro-hop, which takes away most of the focus on words, and more on the sounds and emotion of the song?
    ~~~

  120. To BEP: can all of u picture urself in 10 years to come..
    To Apl: if one day u decide to retire from ur career as a musician..where r u goin to spend d rest of ur life..wil it be in the Philippine or US instead?

  121. so my question is, I know u use Roland 808 drum machine for your boom boom pow as the beats. May I know who is the one incharge of programming it among the group and what other equipments you prefer that you will consider putting the name of the machine on the lyrics in your next coming production like how you did on the 808? πŸ˜›

  122. Start a Question and Answer session, especially ‘controversial’, and the BORED BLANK LOOK will appear. It’s all about “ENTERTAINMENT” baby.
    Just Congratulate on Enduring Success, Welcome them to Malaysia, CHAT and let Opinions Flow.
    It was really ‘down to earth and generous’ of Fergie to publicly thank Lady Sawh (not so well known reggae artist)for giving her some pointers on performing, in her acceptance for a Grammy when they were on the rise.

  123. Can msia have choreographed dance lead by BEP? just like wat was happening in Chicago’s Michigan Avenue that host by Oprah Winfrey’s .

  124. BEP had always been producing phenomenal music/beats that everytime it hits the top chart just like peanuts. What was the best sign/signal that hit you like eureka where you know the WORLD will love it, and which song was that?
    Kenny: Make us proud, dun ‘prey prey’ with our great Musician. Cheers.

  125. You’re very creative group and brings lots of energy and fun in music. What’s your next project line up and how different is it going to be?

    2. Wiiliam , will you countinue singing or do more in producing music
    3.What is going to happen to BEP in next 5 year
    4. WE asian , love your music , cause u remix or mash up with asian song , is there any more latest remix with asian song

  127. Obviously there is a lot going in thier latest album, END. A lot of great songs, great music… just great.
    What intrigues me is what inspires them? And how do they keep on being inspired. Creativity is a really limited juice.

  128. BEP, will you continue to make an impact in the music industry, producing music that are just not music but with values and meanings in it like most of your songs are now?

  129. Ask BEP..
    1. What’s your favourite drink?
    2. What do BEP & Guinness have in common?
    3. Fergie.. do you know that you’re really really hot?
    Kenny… hope to see you & BEP on Arthur’s Day!! πŸ™‚

  130. do u guys think before of trying to sing in different language? perhaps like chinese? korean? japanese?
    i guess it would be interesting.. =)

  131. The Black Eyed Peas have been very vocal about very important issues; from voting to make a change, finding love within ourselves and for others and etc. The BEP is on a worldwide platform and rightly uses it to spread awareness, what do they hope that people can take away from their current album and what personally would they like people to start thinking and taking action upon further?
