Who do you prefer?

Both have been *the* stars of 2009. GaGa only debuted this year and has scored numerous #1 hits all over the world, has the best selling UK single of the year (Pokerface) plus the 3rd best selling (Just Dance) and is practically a house hold name these days. Everyone has been discussing her.

The BEP's returned in May with 'Boom Boom Pow' and have went on to have massive success worldwide as well. Topping the Billboard charts for, what, 20+ weeks or something? IGF the second best selling single in the UK, BBP the 6th, MMH the 23rd (already). Broken a record for the most weeks in the top 10 with IGF as well.

So who do you prefer? I like the BEP's alot more.

Down with domination of average American pop music!

Neither are 'average'. Both write their own songs and both are extremely talented. American music really has owned British music this year.

I prefer BEPs though.

Lady GaGa, to me she's stuck to her own sound consistantly. Pure Pop & Cabararet (for the acoustics), but BEP are DRAMATICALLY different to the band I used to like. Don't get me wrong I enjoy quite a few songs off the End (Imma Be is class!), but I just think GaGa wins hands down

Both are up there as my favourite acts this year, but the pure joy that is IGAF and the amount of times everyone was singing BBP on holiday wins it for me :P

I prefer BEP simply because Fergie is an excellent vocalist.
But Lady Gaga is amazing aswell

I don't mind the BEPs But GaGa is fantastic!
If the BEPs come to dublin for a concert i wouldn't rush out and buy tickets but for GaGa I did

Cannot wait till she comes in February

Ooooh thats really hard because i love them both, but due to the fact I love every single one songs (including album tracks) so far i'm going to choose Lady GaGa.

However the two are are my two favourite acts of 2009

I'm seeing Lady GaGa in March,and i'll be getting tickets to the BEPs as soon as they are announced too

BEPs
I think Gaga is just going overboard with her videos and all her songs have a very similar sound - not neccessarily a bad thing but I like a bit of variety. BEP songs are a little different to stuff we've heard before so, as much as Gaga tries to be unique, I think in actual fact the BEPs are unique.

GaGa. Their album is good but the only song it truly like from Bep is Halfway. Where as Gaga as produced 5 great singles I am still loving today.

GaGa........I love BEPs but their music this year hasn't been as good as their previous work, imo.
GaGa has it all, talent, unpredictability, a stand out act and creativity.

Lady GaGa for me, I like BEP but have listened to The Fame more than I've listened to any of the Peas' stuff.

The 2nd album is supposed to be a difficult one for artists though so long term Lady GaGa's popularity might fade, but the Black Eyed Peas have been around a while.

I liked Black Eyed Peas with their Elephunk album, didn't like the single of the one after that but think they're better than ever now. Although nearly every song on the Fame is amazing and I get very excited at the prospect of a new video of hers, or big live performance and her re-release I'm holding out till Xmas for. She's so much more of a performer than the Peas
