Throwback Thursday: The Black Eyed Peas – “Request Line” (featuring Macy Gray)

First post of the year! I had a short vacation because my body and soul needed it, but now I’m back and better than ever.

The Black Eyed Peas’ “Request Line” (featuring Macy Gray) was the third single from their sophomore album, Bridging the Gap. More significantly, it was the group’s first song to crack the Billboard Hot 100, which blows my mind and serves as evidence that popularity is not always an indication of quality.

The music video is also a reminder that the Black Eyed Peas’ have always been a fun and imaginative group with pop sensibilities (i.e. they didn’t become that way after Fergie). Watch the video below.
