Super. Duper.

Boom Boom Pow- The Black Eyed Peas.

” “William, you’ve been up for three weeks! You need to get some rest!” Taboo urged. Taboo had always been a good friend to William, but at this point that hardly seemed to matter. He leveled his custom-made taser at his bandmate, arm shaking violently.

“Stop talking… and get in the booth,” he said chillingly. William was a man no longer of emotions but of autotune. He cared only for making those mere mortals dance. “We’re going to record this song and it’s going to be a hit. That’s how it’s going to happen.”

Fergie’s silence over the situation finally broke. It was of course, a silence caused by William gagging her but she somehow had chewed her way out of the bandana he had tied round her. “Billy,” she began, “…It doesn’t even sound like a song. It’s just a beat and some nonsense! You used to write songs! Don’t you even see the difference anymore!?”

William turned to look at his records lining the walls, in the glass he saw the reflection of the man he had become. “No, Fergie-Ferg. I see the difference. But you know who doesn’t? …Them.” His bandmates looked puzzled. “Pop has reached its end. It’s a wasteland now, a different beast entirely! …AND I WILL BE ITS KING!” He fired his taser above his head for emphasis. “YOU ARE EITHER WITH ME OR AGAINST ME! WHAT SAY YOU, APL.DE.AP!?”

Apl.De.Ap stood silently, trying to recall the last time someone called him Allan.”
