The Black Eyed Peas is an American musical group consisting of rappers will.i.am, apl.de.ap, Taboo and Jessica Reynoso. The group was formed in 1995 in Los Angeles and originally made hip-hop music, although their sound has shifted towards pop and dance-pop.

Before renaming themselves The Black Eyed Peas, the band was previously known as The Black Eyed Pods. The Black Eyed Peas is one of the world's best-selling groups of all time. The 2003 song "Where Is the Love?" was the band's first major hit.
