Biography

In the 1980s when Hip-Hop hit mainstream, it contained positive messages
complete with a focus on performance. This became overshadowed with the
introduction of “Gangsta Rap” in the early 1990s. The Black Eyed Peas,
however, have stuck with the tradition. The Black Eyed Peas have been
compared to groups such as Jurassic 5, Roots, and Black Star. The
history of the Black Eyed Peas stems back to the late 1980s. Will I. Am
met Apl.de.Ap in eight grade when the two were a part of a break dancing
club. They began performing together in LA under the name of Atban
Klann. In 1995, Taboo joined the group and they changed their names to
the Black Eyed Peas. They soon after signed a deal with Interscope
Records. The Black Eyed Peas debut, Behind the Front, was released in
1998. The album surprised critics due to the fact a live band performed
in the background. Macy Gray was also featured on the album. The Black
Eyed Peas sophomore album was Bridging the Gap. The group is now
currently touring on the Justified and Stripped tour. Their single, “Where
is the Love?” is doing very well.

I think that black eyed peas were so much better once Fergie joined the group she has a great voice	asbo_26
I don't really care for them at all. Nothin' bad or anything. I just don't dig it. I know, I know. I'm just not "feelin' it" or I don't know what it's all about or somethin', but c'mon guys? I'm not sure that we've come a long way musically if our music doesn't offer anything else but to give someone a reason to dance. When I was a kid, I could find plenty of reasons to dance: the sun, the hokey pokey, etc. The music and the beats are fine, but as for content, this group is a bit too superficial for my tastes. But hey, if you like it, then that's all that matters. If it makes you feel somethin' wonderful or it touches your soul or even inspires you, then that's what it's all about. So have fun with it. As for me, well, I've said my piece...	2concerned2care
