- The Black Eyed Peas will release their fifth album late this year. Yay! Will.i.am says it's almost finished, and that it's a "fun record" but it deals with some of the social and politcal issues around at the mo. "We are not complaining," he says. "It's not, 'Oh, everything messed up! Oh my gosh, we're doomed!' It's a thinking record. It brings up what's happening in the world. 'Monkey Business' didn't do that." They've already recorded 12 songs for the album and are said to record another 20-30 songs. Rumours are around that the album will be called "Revolution" or "From the Roots to Fruits." Can't wait!

- Will.i.am is also going to be releasing a solo album, probably this year but not too sure yet. It's supposedly called "Keep the Beeper." Would just like to clear up that will.i.am and Fergie are still with the BEP, they haven't left and probably won't for a while.
