This is actually a Stax and/or Isaac Hayes imitation/plagiarization/influence/sample/ripoff/etc. Which I guess would make it a secondhand cousin.

Uh, firstly, HUGE slap in the face to Kraftwerk, and secondly, the sample of both James Brown and Kraftwerk are secondhand. That whole Fergie song is simply Afro-Rican's Give it All You Got:

Which is one of the all time greatest Miami Bass songs ever. That Fergie track even sample MD Rock's cuts...
