The Black Eyed Peas celebrate 20 years in music with the release of their seventh studio album ‘Masters Of The Sun.’
Drawing on their earlier pre-Pop sound, members will.i.am, apl.de.ap and Taboo regroup for the project which skews political (plus socially reflective) and is loosely inspired by their graphic novel of the same name.
Due for release next Friday (October 26th), the set will not feature Fergie – who is currently on a hiatus from the band.
Still, the trio will be joined by a host of notable names including Nas, CL, Slick Rick, and Nicole Scherzinger. The latter of whom had long been rumored to have been lined-up as Fergie’s “replacement.” Speculation BEP have consistently shot down.
In any case, peep the ‘Masters Of The Sun’ tracklist below…

Wow that’s a great song & I’ll be purchasing it for sure!! Sadly America isn’t fighting fairly for all but very very few who actually are already millionaires!!✊?
I’m ready they were always socially conscious rappers before Fergie joined which was cool cause they got mainstream success as such however they water down their style a lot. However their singles were quality songs which was back to their roots and didn’t catch on I’m sure they fans pre-elephunk will enjoy it. I’m ready for the track with Esthero they have good chemistry together and Weekend will always be my jam ?
Can’t wait to hear the “BACK 2 HIPHOP” track with Nas. Hope it’s dope, sensible and thought-provoking- generally a good track.
