Fergies Boom Dynamite Ripoff

When the Black Eyed Peas re-emerged on the music scene last year after a long absence they brought a new fresh sound, it’s hard not to dance to their blockbuster hit Boom Boom Pow right? So yes they managed to successfully spring right back onto the worldwide entertainment scene, but the only problem is… Get this, it turns out they totally ripped off the track!

I didn’t believe it at first either; after all we hear about these accusations all the time right? The story of an unknown artist who is trying to make a name for themselves, suddenly filing suit against a big star, who supposedly ripped off their tunes; however folks in this instance it seems to be completely true.

Musician Phoenix Phenom and her co-writer claim that the track Boom Boom Pow is actually a re-worked version of a song they had previously submitted to Interscope records titled Boom Dynamite. They are adamant that the group stole their song, switched it up a little bit and relabeled it Boom Boom Pow all without paying a dime or even giving them their due credit.

While we can’t prove that the Peas ever heard the original track or even the date that it was submitted to the record company one thing is for sure. This is the same song! Obviously there have been lyric changes etc. But in all my years listening and reviewing thousands of tracks I have never been so sure that I was listening to a bigger rip off than Boom Boom Pow.

Don’t take my word for it though, check out the Stolen Song below, I think you will quickly see that there is no way this isn’t the inspiration for the hit track that put the Black Eyed Peas back on the music map. It’s actually pretty sad considering the writing abilities of Will.I.Am, Fergie and the other guys, why would you rip off somebody and look like fools when your group is easily talented enough to write your own tunes.


Now I usually think these cases are baseless, but mark my words, Interscope and the Black Eyed Peas are going to lose this case and take a knockout hit to the wallet when all is said and done.

Perez Hilton Puched Out

Polo Molina the manager of recording artists The Black Eyed Peas was scheduled to appear in a Toronto court today to face an assault charge stemming from an altercation with celeb blogger Perez Hilton “Mario Lavandeira” following the 2009 Much Music Video Awards.

Molina is accused of striking Hilton outside a Toronto nightclub on June 22 following an argument between the blogger and band member Will.I.Am. But these are not the only legalities resulting from the assault however, as days after the alleged incident Hilton filed the paperwork and launched his own civil lawsuit against Molina.

Hilton’s lawsuit states he was attacked as a result of a bad review of the bands latest album, therefore the assault infringed on his right of free speech and he is seeking $25,000 for alleged battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Molina the groups manager didn’t appear in court Wednesday as his lawyer, Mark J. Sandler, received disclosure from the Crown and the case was adjourned until Aug. 26, although apparently the manager is not to worried about the charges as Sandler informed the Canadian Judge that Molina would not be appearing on August 26th either.
