Fergie is back with new music. After quite the wait, the Trap inspired Hip Hop tune “M.I.L.F. $” (pronounced “Milf Money,” abbreviation for Mother I’d Like to Follow, according to Fergie) has finally arrived! Apparently it’s not the M.I.L.F you’d find on adult sites like https://www.nu-bay.com/ – it’s much more innocent. It’s quite the departure for Fergie, even following 2014’s DJ Mustard flavored “L.A. LOVE (La La).”

One thing remains with Fergie. She’s still teaching her fans spelling lessons, just like back in 2006 on “Fergalicious” and “Glamorous.” Some things never change. This time Fergie Ferg instructs listeners on common words such as independent, broke, and paid.

The song is so much more than a nod to the otherworldly stars of adult entertainment sites such as sexmature.xxx though.

Fergie wants people to remember she’s still ill and capable of versatility.

Throughout the track, the Black Eyed Peas front woman raps about “working so hard” and just wanting to chill with “all [of her] girls on fleek” and have drinks. Alongside reminding people she can hold a note herself, by singing a bit on the mostly rapped track.

With the new lead single “M.I.L.F. $” marking the most Hip Hop version of Fergie released to radio, how will it perform after such a long break from the scene? If fans were not feeling the vibe of “L.A. LOVE” (#27 peak, 2014) as much as “London Bridge” (#1 peak, 2006) it’s hard to see them liking the transition even deeper, though stranger things have happened. Additionally, with high profile music video cameos expected from Kim Kardashian and Ciara, perhaps the video views can assist the song with streaming points and help it chart well. The song may not be in reference to the original meaning of the acronym MILF, but there is no doubt the video will be full of them. It will be like a celebrity version of a maturesexmovies.xxx video!

Fergie’s sophomore album, Double Dutchess, does not currently have a release date.
