Alicia Keys at the World Cup
Mar 18, 2010 Alicia Keys, Black Eyed Peas, Concert, Shakira
It looks like the boys from the FIFA World Cup Kick-off Celebration have really got themselves quite the concert planned. Not only will Alicia Keys be there, but also Shakira and Black Eyed Peas. The concert will take place on the 10th of June in South Africa. Former soccer player Lucas Radebe said the following about the epic concert: “Music and sports are the lifeblood of African culture, so to combine those in this historic event will be a true celebration of Africa.” Right… nothing more traditional than having Shakira and the Black Eyed Peas singing for the nation… real African spirit right there and they managed to drag Alicia Keys into it too. Is this about football or the ticket sales because at this point it’s a bit hard to tell?

Will.i.am’s formula for success
Mar 10, 2010 Black Eyed Peas, Will.I.Am
The singer from the Black Eyed Peas recently shared his views on success with all of us mere mortals. In will.i.am’s opinion, you can only be successful if you give to charity. This is what he said on the matter: “It’s one thing to make it – and you’ve got your own apartment, or house, or car – and you keep it for you. That’s not making it. Making it is spreading it.” Apparently will.i.am is a big fan of charity and thinks its important to share one’s wealth and success. Strange, no mention about all of those stolen songs for his band, but then again, if he can put a few kids through college just by stealing a bit of music, who’s to question will.i.am’s ways?

will.i.am is loosing it
Jan 21, 2010 Black Eyed Peas, Will.I.Am
The Black Eyed Peas singer is apparently losing touch with his professional nature. It seems will.i.am was really steamed-up in the backstage of the Peoples Choice Awards that when his assistant didn’t have his drink ready immediately he hit the roof. It is a good thing for will.i.am though that he didn’t hit his assistant… after all, nobody can go too far with a broken reputation these days. But it was the assistant’s fault too, though… it can get very dehydrating to perform a show. will.i.am deserves more careful attention than just that… after all, he is a star with special star needs.

Black Eyed Peas Settle Plagiarism Case
Nov 23, 2009 Black Eyed Peas, Will.I.Am
Some musicians just have a habit of ripping off other artists and I have to ask when will they ever learn? Will.I.Am surely needs to learn his lesson regarding the matter. As previously mentioned, the Black Eyed Peas front man has been accused several times of ripping off music from other artists. One of the recent accusations deals with a song by musician Adam Freeland called ‘Mancry’ which had a piece of it ending up in the BEP song ‘Party All the Time’. According to reports, Will.I.Am was at an event last year where Adam performed the song in question. Good news though as they have settled all the trouble. Adam posted a message on his Facebook saying “Just settled w/ Black eyes Peas who ripped off Mancry. If you see me in the next wk say ‘Party all the time’ I’ll buy you a beer. Woo hoop!” I guess he got paid.

will.i.am’s song stealing catches up
Nov 19, 2009 Black Eyed Peas, Will.I.Am
After been accused by several artists that he has stolen their music, will.i.am from Black Eyed Peas has apparently decided to finally pay up for his misconducts. And the first to reap the benefits of having his music stolen by will.i.am is Adam Freeland who wrote the following on his Facebook page: Just settled w/ Black eyes Peas who ripped off Mancry. If you see me in the next wk say ‘Party all the time’ I’ll buy you a beer. Woo hoop!” Well, that’s one way to sell your stuff, especially for a lot more than its worth. It seems that the Black Eyed Peas might want to reconsider having will.i.am as a member since it is doubtful that money came out of his pocket alone.

Leona Lewis at EMAs
Nov 12, 2009 Black Eyed Peas, Leona Lewis, MTV
Leona Lewis looked absolutely stunning when she attended the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards in Berlin last week. The 24-year old singer, who also performed her new single ‘Happy’, also recently returned to the show that made her famous and also to be the said cause for the random unprovoked attack she suffered a couple of weeks back. Leona recently made an appearance on the X Factor’s results show this past weekend. Given the things she’s recently gone through, you can’t even tell that something went wrong in Leona’s life. She’s still as spectacular as ever. She shared the stage with the Black Eyed Peas.

Black Eyed Peas Sets Record
Oct 9, 2009 Black Eyed Peas, Mariah Carey
According to Newsweek, ‘I Gotta Feeling’ from the Black Eyed Peas’ album ‘The END’, has spent 14 weeks at number 1, trying Mariah Carey’s record for the longest running number 1 hit of the decade. Wow! For a song that I can’t that much into and I could describe as mediocre at best, especially for a band like them, that’s a pretty long time. I think it’s great for them though, so congratulations! I just wish they could bust out an even bigger hit that’s much more deserving of the spot and even be able to surpass that record. But that’s just me.

Will.I.Am Gets Sued
Sep 24, 2009 Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, Will.I.Am
Will.I.Am, Fergie and several others involved in the recording of the 2006 song ‘Voodoo Doll’ (off of the former meth addict’s solo album) are being sued by the music group Groundation. The group claims that the song “is substantially and strikingly similar” to their single ‘Each One Teach One’ which was recorded back in 2000. It’s not really surprising for someone who has been plagued by copyright scandals in the past. I just wish that the Black Eyed Peas rapper didn’t have to involve the female singer. The lawsuit is seeking for unspecified damages. They better get ready to pay up.

Michael Jackson had two more albums in pipeline
Jul 3, 2009 Akon, Black Eyed Peas, Jazz, Michael Jackson, Will.I.Am
Michael Jackson had two albums in the works at the time of his death, Billboard magazine has reported.
The singer was collaborating on a pop album with singer-songwriters Claude Kelly and Akon, and another collection of classics.
Kelly said: “He was the King of Pop, the biggest to ever do it, and the one thing you never lose – whether known by the whole world or just 10 people – is your love for music. That never goes away and it never went away for him amidst his troubles.”
Akon (pictured) said: “My fans are still there. They still love me. They’re alive … His kids are like his first priority, and they had never seen him perform live. He was trying to create the most incredible show for his kids.”
Jackson was also working on an instrumental album, collaborating with composer David Michael Frank. “He had two demos of two pieces he’d written, but they weren’t complete,” Frank reportedly told Billboard.
“For one of them, he had a whole section of it done in his head. He had not recorded it. He hummed it to me as I sat at the keyboard in his pool house and we figured out the chords – I guess this recording I made is the only copy that exists of this music.”
Further compositions were also in the pipeline, a jazz track among them. “He mentioned more instrumental music of his he wanted to record, including one jazz piece,” said Frank, who hopes the Jackson family will decide to record the music as a “tribute and show the world the depth of his artistry”.
Meanwhile, Black Eyed Peas frontman Will.i.am earlier this week said Jackson had recordings of new songs the pair had worked on together. “He had all the hard drives because I didn’t want to be responsible for that.”

Black Eyed Peas First #1 Album And Highest Sales Week Ever

Black Eyed Peas ‘The E.N.D.’ Lands At #1 On The Billboard 200 Chart
Black Eyed Peas’ “The E.N.D.” bows at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 304,000 — the hip-pop act’s best sales week ever. It’s also the first No. 1 album for the group, which had previously gone as high as No. 2. Its last set, 2005’s “Monkey Business,” bowed in the runner-up slot with a then-best 291,000. It had the unfortunate luck to come out the same week as Coldplay’s “X&Y,” which kept the Peas’ at bay when it started at No. 1 with 737,000. via Billboard.com

Rihanna at Black Eyed Peas Album Launch
Jun 12, 2009 Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, Rihanna
Rihanna attended the official Black Eyed Peas album release party on Wednesday which was hosted by Target at The Griffin in New York City. The Barbadian singer looked absolutely beautiful in comparison to Fergie. Speaking of BEP, their new album proved to be a disappointment. Their record label was expecting the record to sell upwards of 350,000 copies this week but industry insiders say that the album will only sell between 200,000 to 225,000 copies on its debut week. That sucks for them. They should have come up with better beats and a new sound if they really wanted to be a huge success.

American Idol Finale
May 22, 2009 Adam Lambert, Black Eyed Peas, Carlos Santana, Cyndi Lauper, David Cook, Jason Mraz, KISS, Keith Urban, Kris Allen, Lionel Richie, Queen, Queen Latifah, Rod Stewart
Despite putting on one of the biggest productions compared to previous seasons, American Idol season 8’s finale was down in viewership by 12% compared to last year’s finale show. That’s too bad because whoever chose to not watch missed an amazing set of performances. Performers included Queen Latifah, David Cook, Jason Mraz, Carlos Santana, Black Eyed Peas, Lionel Richie, Rod Stewart, Cyndi Lauper, Keith Urban, Steve Martin, KISS and Queen. Of course, every single one of the Top 13 was also there to perform. It was a great showcase of talent. The past, present and future of music was greatly presented in one amazing show.

On a happier note, BEP member Taboo, real name Jamie Gomez, and his fashion publicist girlfriend are expecting their first child this summer. Taboo also has a teenage son with a former girlfriend.
