After watching their Shakira-shared jam ‘Girl Like Me’ rocket to GOLD status at the RIAA, Black Eyed Peas look to cook up a similar feat with their newest number, ‘Hit It.’

Like ‘Girl’ before it, ‘Hit’ sonically contains elements of Hip Hop, EDM, Latin, and Reggaeton while lyrically seeing the BEP frontman, will.i.am, trade verses with a female lead. Unlike ‘Girl,’ ‘Hit’ takes a turn down a raunchier musical avenue – tapping rapstress Saweetie and songstress Lele Pons to assist.

“Bang on the booty like I’m on a drum line / Insane beauty, really love the design / Girl, you really blew my mind, blew my mind / That’s the way I go when I hit it one time,” Will boasts on the hot new track.
