The tug of war was about my sexuality and how much of that I was willing to like, literally strip down,” she continues. “I never wanted to be objectified while doing my music. ‘Where’s your voice? Where are you?’”When it came to the Black Eyed Peas’ voice, Hill and the other members had conflicting opinions on how they should evolve. She believed it was the group’s “duty to progress [hip-hop],” she says, adding that its uniqueness was being “happy at a time in hip-hop where it really wasn’t okay to just be happy.”

She resented that outside voices wanted to stamp out their edginess, but at the same time, she understood her bandmates’ didn’t have her privilege to refuse the demands of a burgeoning career.“The pressure started coming to, like, soften it up and make it super-commercial. was like, ‘We’re not really going to do that, are we?’” Hill recalls. “And the guys were like, ‘You don’t have to go back to East L.A. if this doesn’t work out.’”:mjpls:

What's wrong with going back to live in East LA?? They weren't even popping yet but they felt they were to good for el barrio:troll:
