What is the f***ing infatuation advertisers have with the Black-Eyed Peas?

Their music is pre-packaged, homogenized garbage, but every damn where I look and listen, some tv or radio commercial is using their music in it. Especially that god-awful 'My Humps' shit. Stop it!!!

What better to help sell pre-packaged, homogenized products than pre-packaged homogenized music?

Also, who gives a fuck? Why spend any waking second worrying or fretting about whether or not the Black-Eyed Peas are overused in advertising?

I dunno, get Tivo or something.

You, uh, answered your own question.

I assume it is incredibly cheap to use.

They play them on the gym speakers all the time...thankfully, I have an iPod.

The sad part is they used to have a decent underground sound.

Now they are all you say and more. Or less... Whichever is worse.

That "My Humps" commercial drives me nuts.

I'm guessing because they're a popular act with very catchy if cheesy music.
