#WhereIsTheLove

The Black Eye Peas, an american music group consist of the rappers, Will.i.am, Taboo, Fergie, and Apl.de.ap.  "Where Is The Love", is on the music group 3rd album, Elephunk released in the summer of 2003. This song refers to the fight against racism that took place and is taking place in our country. It talks about kids being involved in gangs at young ages and caught up in things that should have been avoided. People are being killed from these wrong-doing decision that others make. The bible says: "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. If you think about your relationships with others.. is it really love? "Where Is The Love," is also telling us that what this world that we live in is turning into without love, genuine love. The artist do a good job of listing all the awful things that have been happening in society, not to make us feel bad and guilty to open up awareness for those who are blind.

Just a year ago The Black Eyed Peas reunited to release a remake of the music video entitled #WHEREISTHELOVE ft The World, because we are not sure after all the tragedy's that occurred. Some of their celebrity friends were asking to participate. The video features war images, the migrant crisis, and protest across the U.S.

#WHEREISTHELOVE ft. The World

Strong lines:
"But if you only have love for your own rce
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate
yeah"
Racism is being expressed in violent and humiliating methods in today's society.

"As I'm getting older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' our wrong direction"

Materialism is getting even more common! Making money seems to be everyone's most important main goal.

"Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema"

The youth are easily influenced by the media. Leading to more criminal and violent acts in the long run.
