Entertainment Weekly says: For those without access to the Peas' power smoothie, repeated exhortations to be a ''Ring-a-ling,'' "Party All the Time," and "Rock That Body" (featuring a sizable chunk of Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock's 1988 classic "It Takes Two") can grow exhausting. And yet, the BEPs are - to borrow from those other old-school greats, A Tribe Called Quest - "devoted to the art of moving butts," and even if they do it with a minimum of subtlety and pacing, they still do it pretty well. Group mastermind will.i.am's attempt at social commentary on "Now Generation" comes off more like an "I just got DSL!" laundry list ("MySpace and your space/Facebook is that new place...Google is my professor/Wikipedia checker"). But when the group's glitchy future-funk beats sync up with Fergie's unabashedly feminine melodies, as on the sweetly insidious "Meet Me Halfway," they find pure Top 40 nirvana.
