Bebot
"Bebot" is a song from The Black Eyed Peas' fourth studio album, Monkey Business. The single was released in the Philippines, Asia and Australia on August 4, 2006. The title of the song is derived from a Filipino slang word analogous to "babe", playing the English slang term for "hot chick". Two music videos for the song were broadcast in 2006.
Background
In a similar fashion to "The Apl Song", which appeared on the group's 2003 album Elephunk, the song is rapped solo by apl.de.ap as a tribute to his childhood upbringing in the Philippines. However, in contrast to the first song's somber tone, "Bebot" is an uptempo song designed to be played at parties and clubs. The term "Bebot" is Filipino slang for "pretty woman", "hot chick", "hottie", "baby", babe". The music video for Bebot features primarily Filipinos, and Filipino Americans. In 2006, Patricio Ginelsa (Kid Heroes Productions) and AJ Calomay (Xylophone Films), who also produced and directed the video for "The Apl Song", as well as the Filipino American action comedy movie Lumpia, were enlisted to make a music video for "Bebot". A bonus track on the group's 2009 album, The E.N.D., uses a similar format to "Bebot"; the song "Mare" also features prominent sections of lyrics sung in Tagalog.

Hoy pare, pakinggan n?yo ako
Heto na ang tunay na Pilipino
Galing sa baryo, Sapang Bato
Pumunta ng L.A., nagtrabaho
Para makatulong sa Nanay
Dahil sa hirap ng buhay
Pero masaya pa rin ang kulay
Pag kumain, nagkakamay
?Yung kanin, chicken adobo
?Yung balut, binibenta sa kanto
Tagay mo na nga ang baso
Pare ko, inuman na tayo

Wala kang katulad sa mundo
Pinoy ka, sigaw na, sige
Kung maganda ka, sigaw na, sige
Kung buhay mo?y mahalaga, sige
Salamat sa ?yong suporta
