Black Eyed Peas New Album Coming Soon


Black Eyed Peas release new album The Beginning later this month and now will.i.am has revealed the influence behind the record.

Discussing the follow-up to last year’s The E.N.D., the rapper and producer said the new album is inspired by the 1980s.

"The 80s was unique. It launched humanity into hyper mode. From then to now we’ve transcended to a totally different culture," will told the Daily Star. "Now we have high definition, 3D animation, whereas the beginning was Tetris and Space Invaders. That’s what we’re doing - we’re connecting the pixels."

Will.i.am also revealed how he had to improvise making some parts of the album, because it was recorded on the road during the band’s world tour. "We had no speakers so I had to hijack the hotel television set and plug my computer into it. Some songs are 120 beats per minute and others are, like, 320."

The Beginning is released November 26.
