Black Eyed Peas

Black Eyed Peas are an American hip-hop (musical styles Alternative Rap/Hip-Hop and Jazz Rap/Hip-Hop) crew from Los Angeles, who have lately enjoyed massive international pop success. As Atban Klann, they signed to Ruthless Records (run by Eazy-E), but their album was never released because the positive and peaceful lyrics were too unusual for Ruthless. The group is composed of will.i.am, Apl.de.ap, Taboo, and Fergie.
