Another autobiography no one's interested in

A new autobiography is about to hit the shelves, but if you were told it was by someone called Taboo, would that mean anything to you? Here are a few clues. It starts with a quote from Thoreau about dreams, moves on to a preface about the author hitting "rock bottom" in jail and then treats us to a series of badly told stories about the author's life, including an episode where our hero wakes up from a drug-induced stupor to hear people laughing at him. "What are they saying about me?" he asks himself. Perhaps it was something like: "Who the hell are you?" Because despite "record-breaking success – including six Grammy Awards and 30 million albums sold", you'd be hard-pressed to recognise this artist from a line-up.More help? It's one of Black Eyed Peas . The one with long hair. "Of course!" none of you are saying. It's strange that Taboo has got his own book. He is the equivalent of Jason Orange/the two guys from East 17 at the back singing "Ooh", ie not someone anyone is interested in. His tome is bound to join the non-bestselling likes of Bill Oddie's One Flew Into The Cuckoo's Egg (4,811 copies sold) and Trisha Goddard's Trisha, As I Am (3,538 copies sold). We can't wait for the other anonymous BEP member – apl.de.ap's (inevitable) tell-all.
