After watching their 2019 hit ‘Ritmo‘ zoom to 2x Platinum status at the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales equivalence of 2 million in the United States, hitmakers Will.i.am and J. Balvin are undoubtedly looking to repeat the feat with their new song ‘Let’s Go.’
Delivered as part of a special collaboration with Formula 1 for the racing giant’s 2023 season, ‘Let’s Go’ follows the similarly themed, Lil Wayne-assisted ‘The Formula’ released in May.
“Comin’ through like trouble, rappin’ with the verbo / Break through the barricade, deep up in a hurdle / Gotta get over before I get on the number one / Número uno, universal, ayy, ayy, ayy,” Will relays in the new Johnny Goldstein-produced cut.
Speaking on the brand partnership, the Black Eyed Peas frontman shared his elation.
“It’s a thrill to merge my passions – high-performance auto racing and music – in this pioneering alliance. Our goal is to shatter traditional boundaries by fusing music and racing, creating unforgettable experiences that introduce new fans to the excitement of F1 and showcasing the world’s finest artists and performers,” Will.i.am shares.
‘Formula’ and ‘Let’s Go’ serve as preludes to the 48-year-old’s forthcoming fifth solo album, his first since 2013’s #willpower.

Anything is better than that crackhead spears
I think the Black Eyed Peas era is over. He would have to get Fergie back in order for people to pay attention.
