LONDON BRIDGE (OH SHH) - FERGIE
Stacy Ferguson, a.k.a. Fergie, steps out from the Black Eyed Peas to deliver an annoying “My Humps” sound-alike. The track from her debut album, “The Duchess,” follows the current trend of overproduction, but what worked for Gwen Stefani in “Hollaback Girl” and Nelly Furtado in “Promiscuous” fails here. Funky horns, sirens and other distractions cannot save what amounts to a flaccid performance of inane lyrics. Having debuted at No. 40 at mainstream top 40, “London Bridge” will surely be a hit; we’re not as sure it’s any good. Billboard
