will.i.am - This Is Love
Artist: will.i.am
Producer: Steve Angello
Album: #willPOWER
Label: Interscope
Can you feel it—that warm glow emanating from will.i.am‘s latest record? Following the tepid reader response to his last couple features, T.H.E. remix/reimagining Go Home and Great Times, the Black Eyed Peas frontman has channeled all the positive vibes at his disposal into This Is Love, a fresh single that he hopes will cause his critics’ hearts to instantly grow three sizes a la the Grinch—or, at the very least, leave them grooving so hard they forget to write those negative reviews. Currently starring as a judge on the U.K. edition of televised talent competition The Voice, will recruits a few of his European connects to help him spread his message of good cheer on both sides of the Atlantic; Swedish House Mafia‘s Steve Angello mans the mixing boards, providing a club-ready beat that builds from a spare piano loop to a blistering, four-on-the-floor chorus, and Dutch singer Eva Simons lends her soaring vocals to the record’s hook. And the headliner? He keeps it simple and pop-appealing as usual, expressing his undying affection for bass, treble, electronic beats and even cellos in shout-along verses. Feeling it? More dancefloor-scorchers await on #WILLPOWER, which as yet lacks a solid drop date.

"Joints and Jams" this is not. And yes, it hasn't been for many many years - I know. But, this is probably will's catchiest and most easily enjoyable solo effort to date. I would be very surprised if this didn't hit for him.

It was ok, better after a few listens, but would I cop it? NO.

I thought the sound was a bit tame for a Will.i.am production, but that's because Steve Angello did his thing on this one. This will do well in the clubs...Not so much in my headphones. But that's most Pop records now-a-days.

The autotune at the end wasn't needed. That beat is pure fire BUT the verses sucked, the chorus sucked, it all sucked besides the production.
