Question: In what state did the band who produced the album Censored Colors get their start?
Context: "Don't Phunk with My Heart" (censored as "Don't Mess with My Heart") is a song recorded by American recording group The Black Eyed Peas, taken from the fourth studio album "Monkey Business" (2005).  It was written by band members will.i.am, Fergie, George Pajon, Jr. and Printz Board; will.i.am also produced and engineered the song.  The song features compositional samples of songs derived from two Hindi films of the 1970s, "Apradh" (1972) and "Don" (1978), as well as interpolations of Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam's 1985 single "I Wonder If I Take You Home" and Gucci Crew II's 1988 single "Sally (That Girl)".  The song was released as the first single from "Monkey Business"; it was first serviced to mainstream radios on April 12, 2005 in the United States.

"Happy Hero" is a single by the experimental band Negativland, appearing on their 1997 album, "Dispepsi".  The song talks about how a man would get publicity by putting himself in danger so he would promote Pepsi on the stage.  The song is sung to a crowd of people, who start booing at him at how he would do such things, like rape with teenage boys and get into a gang fight so he can get into a wheelchair and sing songs to dying children.  The song criticizes Michael Jackson's Pepsi promotion, even though he was accused of raping a 14-year-old boy ten years later.  It's also a foreshadow on "The Greatest Taste Around" as it talks about "dying children", with the lyric in "The Greatest..." saying "children dying of disease/Pepsi".
