The Black Eyed Peas ngasih lagu cinta? Jangan begitu heran dech. Karena mereka juga kan terkenal dengan berbagai kejutan yang ga ketebak dalam rangkaian musik yang etrkonsep dengan sempurna. Setelah menyisipkan lagu lawas 'I've Had The Time Of My Life' di single mereka sebelumnya, sekarang gebrakan cinta itu yang muncul lewat single 'Just Can't Get Enough' yang merupakan single kedua dari album ke-6 mereka "The Beginning". Dan kalau mau menyederhanakan kata, 'Just Can't Get Enough' is an ultimate surprise. Dimana lagu ini dibagi menjadi 2 bagian, dimana bagian pertama musik elektro khas BEP disajikan tidak heboh dan hingar bingar seperti biasa, supaya klik ke bagian emosi lagunya. Dan bagian kedua baru kita dikasih bahan dengar yang BEP banget.
Untuk menciptakan lagu ini, BEP dibantuin sama Joshua Alvarez, Stephen Shadowen, Rodney Jerkins, LaShawn Daniels, dan Julie Frost, sekalian proses produksinya dibantuin sama DJ Ammo dan Darkchild. Dan dari kesekian lagu slow yang berhasil ditampilkan oleh grup hip hop ini, 'Just Can't Get Enough' lah yang paling kompleks. Dimana kita punya bagian dimana will.i.am dan Fergie bernyanyi, kemudian will.i.am, apl.de.ap, dan Taboo nge-rap, ada moment balada penuh emosi, juga kemeriahan musik yang ngajak bergoyang di bagian akhirnya. Nah, perpindahan musik dari slow ke fast itu ditandai dengan "switched up" mungkin akan berefek pada ketidaknyamanan sound yang tercipta. Tapi ini juga inovatif kreatif BEP dalam berkarya yang enggak bisa ditemukan di single mereka sebelumnya, kayak 'Don't Lie' atau 'Request Line'.
Video klip untuk single ini pasti semua udah pada tau, bahwa mereka melakukan pengambilan gambarnya di Jepang sepekan sebelum musibah gempa dan tsunami melanda. Kesempatan yang baik saat premir videonya untuk menyatakan belasungkawa atas kejadian tersebut. "This video was filmed in Japan one week before the earthquake and tsunami. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the people of Japan. We love you." Dan di bagian akhir video mereka menitip pesan untuk melakukan donasi ke Jepang. Asyiknya menikmati musik sambil beramal a la The Black Eyed Peas!
