Editor's note

will.i.am, from Black Eyed Peas to solo hits

A founding member of The Black Eyed Peas who later carved out a solo career with high-profile collaborations.

For a sense of his range, check out 'Where Is the Love?' for the group sound and 'Scream & Shout' for his solo pop side.

He helped shape the sound of The Black Eyed Peas on their 2003 album 'Elephunk', which included the global hit 'Where Is the Love?'. As a solo artist, tracks like 'Don't Phunk With My Heart' and 'Scream & Shout' with Britney Spears kept him in the pop conversation. His work spans from early rap groups to tech ventures like Beats Electronics.

He started in the rap group Atban Klann with apl.de.ap before co-founding The Black Eyed Peas in 1995. After their breakthrough with 'Elephunk', he released his solo debut 'Songs About Girls' in 2007 and kept collaborating on hits into the 2010s.
