On paper it looked like a disaster. Wolfgang Garter's normally top-rate production would be spoilt by some auto-tuned to death vocals by will.i.am. However, we found out soon after that this was recorded a year and a half ago, and it turns out the vocals are pretty good. The actual lyrics are a bit iffy, for example will.i.am mentions gangbangs. Nice. Apart from that, it's what we like to call a tune. Thumbs up for Joey Youngman aka Wolfgang Gartner, and a semi congratulations to will.i.am for not completely actually ruining a track. You can also get an instrumental if you don't like will.i.am's vocals!
