will.i.am was touring in middle school and he was a signed recording artist years before he and others formed the black eyed peas. Where the are you coming up this lie that he created the group from nothing?
- vaxman 7y agoThat label famously (and tragically) tanked (due to the death of its founder) and he created the Peas from its ashes using nothing but his own skills. The Peas went on to be signed by a new label and the rest is history. What you are implying is that somehow what was left of that original label bankrolled and promoted and released The Peas, which is just pure bullslit.
- lowtolerance 7y agoI didn’t imply anything about Ruthless Records bankrolling the black eyed peas, but good job calling me on my non-existent bullshit. Ruthless Records didn’t “famously tank”, they simply changed hands, and the new ownership dropped Atban Klann from their label cause they didn’t share Eazy-E’s enthusiasm for their work. Ruthless Records is still around. And will.i.am couldn’t have created the Black Eyed Peas from the ashes of Atban Klann, because Atban Klann never dissolved, they (as in a group comprised of more than just will.i.am) merely changed their name and continued to recruit new members and put on shows until they were picked up by Interscope a year later.
