Biography of The Black Eyed Peas
In 2011, The Black Eyed Peas did us the honour of performing on three consecutive nights, on 22, 24 and 25 June at the Stade de France. This was part of their tour, *The Beginning Massive Stadium Tour*. Two French-speaking artists had the honour of being invited on stage by the group during these three dates: David Guetta and Stromae.
With Fergie’s arrival, the Black Eyed Peas broadened their musical horizons by blending hip-hop, pop, dance and electronic sounds. The album *Elephunk*, released in 2003, marked a real turning point in the group’s career, driven in particular by ‘Where Is the Love?’, but also by tracks such as ‘Shut Up’, ‘Hey Mama’ and ‘Let’s Get It Started’.
Their success continued with *Monkey Business* in 2005, which featured tracks such as “Don’t Phunk with My Heart”, “My Humps” and “Pump It”. In 2009, the album *The E.N.D.* cemented their international status thanks to tracks that have become iconic, such as “Boom Boom Pow” and “I Gotta Feeling”. Both tracks simultaneously occupied the top two spots on the Billboard Hot 100 and helped the group remain at the top of the chart for 26 consecutive weeks.
Throughout their career, the Black Eyed Peas have established themselves as one of the most popular groups of their generation. The group notably won three Grammy Awards at the 52nd Grammy Awards ceremony, whilst their discography has, over the years, blended influences from hip-hop, pop, dance and electronic music.
Following a hiatus, will.i.am, apl.de.ap and Taboo returned to the group’s hip-hop roots and released *Masters of the Sun Vol. 1* in 2018, without Fergie. The singer J. Rey Soul (Jessica Reynoso) has been collaborating with the Black Eyed Peas ever since.
From their early days in the Los Angeles underground hip-hop scene to their rise to fame on the biggest international stages, the Black Eyed Peas have built their identity around a consistent ability to evolve their music and blend genres, ranging from hip-hop to pop and dance.
