    The Peas best and most commercial album, Elephunk incorporates enough of the old stuff to keep their loyal fans happy and new stuff to draw in the punters. One new inclusion at the time was Fergie, who was possibly key to the success of this album. A better singer than all the other boys her up front vocals drive the songs through. A slightly strange song name choice of 'Lets GetThe Peas best and most commercial album, Elephunk incorporates enough of the old stuff to keep their loyal fans happy and new stuff to draw in the punters. One new inclusion at the time was Fergie, who was possibly key to the success of this album. A better singer than all the other boys her up front vocals drive the songs through. A slightly strange song name choice of 'Lets Get Retarded?' got the media into a storm but it's not a bad song and goes along with the some what crazy nature of the Peas. This album is good if not quite great but its perfect if you just fancy a dance.… Expand

    Though Elephunk provides some pretty good tunes it falls in and out of meaning for example "Where Is The Love" provides us with a plesant meaning while "My Humps" is about Fergie humps. I find it really hard like something like that.

    I think it had lots of great tracks with a variety of rap, pop/funk and pop/dance with lots of sweet special effects and various singing styles to keep anyone happy.

    The snags occur with the group's efforts at grit and substance.

    The crew's 1982-ish rhyme schemes and vapid lyrics reach new lows. [Oct 2003, p.85]

    Elephunk may not blow up, but it does go pop with enough style and verve to make its lack of substance irrelevant.
