The Black Eyed Peas have yet again made digital music history. According to Nielsen SoundScan, with six million downloads the Black Eyed Peas’ “I Gotta Feeling” is the best-selling song in digital history.
The song, which is featured on the Black Eyed Peas’ most recent album The E.N.D., remained on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for an impressive 14 weeks last year.
Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am spoke briefly to the Associated Press in regards to the groups latest milestone.
“We came out in ’98 and our career, if you would look at it on chart, there’s no dips in it,” will.i.am explained. “For our career to still be healthy and vibrant and doing things like 6 million downloads, it’s pretty significant.”
During a performance last week on Good Morning America the Black Eyed Peas revealed that they’re finishing up their next album. The album will be titled The Beginning and it’s scheduled to be released before the year is up.
“It symbolizes growth, new beginnings and starts, fresh new perspective,” said will.i.am on GMA, referring to the new album.
much respect to them, i dont listen to they music on the regular. every now and then, i hear something that i like. a lot of people have their own opinions one way or another. but sometimes opinions bleed over into hate. im not a fan, but that dont mean im wishing for they downfall. they got millions of fans, yet haters expend all they energy tryna convince folks they doing something wrong(just cause u dont like something, doesnt mean others dont

Former hood nigga caking LARGE off that pop shit. Trip this, he owns the BEP. He owns the publishing, the name, all that shit. Those other dudes are just there for the ride.
Eazy E taught this man the business very well. Oh yeah, y’all didn’t know, he was under Eazy’s wing early on.
Props for blowing up w/o the typical gang bang shit that he grew up doing…
Funny how will.i.am puts out simplistic bullshit and is hailed a genius….while gucci gets killed. Yeah the man can cook up a beat, that’s not lost on me. Yeah supposedly we could freestyle his ass off back in the day…great. You listen to his interviews and he talks like invented music. Makes kanye sound humble. After being somewhat of a fan of their first two albums…It’s ashame to say bep gets me more heated than waka flaka anymore. But yeah I guess they get props for “keeping it in the positive…ha ha
There’s a big difference between BEP’s “simple” sound and Wacka Flocka’s and Gucci Mane’s sounds. BEP make simple sounding music that’s more pop and dance than it is hip-hop. While their music is simple it’s not stupid. Wacka and Gucci on the other hand are absolute trash. I honestly hear those guys and wonder how any person of at least average mental capacity can listen to them.
it is both equally dumb
it is music for the clubheads for the people in the moment who do not look for music as an escape but rather a form of entertainment
BUT to each its own it aint hip hop in my book if u like pop well more power to ya!!
