Will.i.am goes solo

[Pittsey]

Black Eyed Peas member will.i.am is busy working on his first solo album for a tentative December release. He’s also produced tracks for The Game’s new album Doctor’s Advocate, due Nov. 14 via Interscope.

Will says of the Compton rapper: "He rolls with a different type of people. I was nervous; I didn't know what to expect. But I got to know him in the studio, and he had fun just like everyone else. He loves music just like I love music. That was the bond and respect that we took from that studio session."

Will has also worked on new LPs from Nas and Snoop Dogg.

That makes him any better? A lot garbage artist are signed and a lot of good are still unsigned. Here, his audience is more outside Hip-Hop fans.

If you knew will.i.am before BEP and what he does away from BEP you'd feel the same. Yeah he is a little eccentric. But he's hip-hop through and through. Why do you think so many big names and hardcore rappers fuck with him?

Because he's successful. That's why.

But she can't mix with Shaolin style.

Because... He's good behind the boards. And he knows real hip-hop even if he doesn't show it with BEP's. I think his album will be pretty good. There be some good guests and hopefully not much BEP's. It will be eclectic though. More tracks like that sergio mendes 1. I think he's very underated though. The man is clever.

OK. You conviced me that he's skilled. But, it's not what he knows, it's what he shows.
