10 Totally Whack Lyrics From Will.i.am

7. Will.i.am Feat Justin Bieber - #thatPOWER

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGIgXP9SvB8 Totally Whack Lyrics: "And I'm loving every second, minute, hour, bigger, badder, stronger, power" (Time 00:52) Forgiving the fact that he put a bloody hash tag in front of its title, this song isn't half bad. You Know why? Because it's a rip off of 'Harder Better Faster Stronger' by Daft Punk. Yes we know it's not uncommon for mainstream artists to sample the work of the popular electronic French musicians. But rather than sampling the track like Kanye West did, Will tiptoes around the copyright laws by sneakily rewording the hook and gets Justin Bieber to sing the riff. To quote the hip-hop theorist "haters be hating on me because I'm doing what they can't". We're afraid to break it to you mate, but my niece can spout better lyrics then "They call me Willy, stay so cool I'm Chilly". Only difference is you have a hearty fan base to purchase your rhymes €“ we just stick hers up on the fridge. We also love that he claims to "stay in fly attire" despite looking like a Hasidic Aladdin in the video.
