Black Eyed Peas Come Back with a Strong Remake

"I remember when the attack in Paris happened, and then Belgium happened, and then Turkey, and then Orlando, and then Philando, and Alton, and then Dallas." Will.I.Am speaking about the recent tragedies.

Back in September, The Black Eyed Peas released a remake of their classic 2003 hit "Where is the Love?" This time, they came back strong with a heart pounding song that features the world. Justin Timberlake, Snoop Dog, A$AP Rocky, Usher, DJ Khaled, Wiz Khalifa, Jaden Smith, Mary J. Blige, Andra Day, Ty Dolla $ign, French Montana, Diddy, Kris Jenner, and many more are all featured in the video. It also highlights photos taken from events that have scared the world and a children's chorus at the end.

With all of the negativity in the world, we needed this song to come back. We are a world that is allowing tragedies to take over and our reactions are not correct. Instead of coming together to stop this horrible epidemic, we are spreading apart and fighting against each other. This must come to an end and we need to reunite as one country, one world.

All lives matter. Enough of one life matters more than the other. EVERYONE matters! How is putting one life before the other matter more? We deserve to live our life until it is our proper time to go. As said in the video, love is powerful. If you show one person love, it can change their life forever.

Many people have reacted to the video by saying that they like the original better or that it has ruined the original. In my eyes, this is just what we need. While watching the video, it reminded me of the 2010 remake of "We Are The World" with various singers singing about coming together to help Haiti. Where is that unity now? We need to create that unity again and come together as one to fill the gap that we have made to separate ourselves.

America, it is time to end the hatred, violence, racism, terrorism, everything. It is time to put an end to what has caused the world to go into an endless cycle of pain and hurt. This is OUR world. Our world should be filled with love, unity, care, and kindness. But this can not be done without people making a movement. Until that movement happens, I will be asking the same question as everyone else; Where is the Love?

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
