will.i.am Beefs With Media Over Fergie Leaving Black Eyed Peas

by HHL Editors

There have been multiple reports that Fergie has quit the Black Eyed Peas.

Group leader will.i.am seemed to confirm the vocalist had left the group with this statement.

“Since the beginning of Black Eyed Peas, we’ve always had amazing vocalists that appeared on the mic with us,” he explained. “People like Macy Gray, Esthero, Debi Nova, Fergie. On Elephunk, there were several females that appeared on that album. Obviously, Fergie was the featured female, but on songs like ‘Let’s Get it Started,’ it’s Noelle [Scaggs], and then Fergie, songs like ‘Latin Girls,’ it’s Debi Nova, and ‘Request Line,’ it’s Macy Gray. We’ll always work with good females. We worked on a bunch of songs on her solo record, we’re proud that she has her label, he continued. "But Black Eyed Peas are pushing it forward in terms of content, technology and experiences on our new [graphic novel] project, Masters of the Sun.”

However, now will.i.am is pushing back against the reports that Fergie is leaving the group.

Lies...@Fergie is focusing on #DoubleDutchess & @BEP is doing #MastersOfTheSun...That doesn't mean @fergie is out of the group #BEP4ever https://t.co/JinoWNp4Jg
