UPDATE: Find Out Jennifer Lopez's Upcoming 'Today Show' Announcement Here First!

So as I posted before Jennifer Lopez is set to make an announcement tomorrow on NBC's The Today Show.  Well I am pretty sure the announcement is not in regards to American Idol, or an upcoming tour,  But I am happy to say fans may be excited!  Find out what Miss Lopez will be announcing before her official announcement  below!

What Do The Black Eyed Peas Have In Store For The Future?

Been wondering if the Black Eyed Peas were going to continue on releasing new singles from their current album The Beginning, or release another album later this year? Well it has been announced by will.i.am via [his official] Twitter that the Black Eyed Peas, will definitely be taking a break before their next album. See exactly what Will had to say:

The @Bep will take a break after the beginning...just like we did from monkey business to the e.n.d...but it doesn't mean we stop creating

So Will definitely wants the Black Eyed Peas fans to know that the group is not breaking up, or at least that they will still remain co-collaborators. Although it makes you wonder if the Peas will be able to take a lengthy break as they did between Monkey Business [2005], and The E.N.D. (Energy Never Dies) [2009], and still come back strong. I surely do hope so, but you must also take into consideration they will all be 4 years older (around 40), and the mainstream music scene will once again be completely different. Will they be able to takeover the Pop charts and rule as they did so effortlessly in 2009? What do you think? Leave comments below!

One thing is for sure-a break from the Black Eyed Peas means one of two things for defining member Fergie. She would either take the time to settle down with her husband, actor Josh Duhamel, and maybe have a baby as the media has been speculating over the years. Or she could make a ton of Fergie fans happy by releasing her long awaited followup album to her debut solo CD, 2006's The Dutchess. What do you think or want Fergie to do? Leave comments below!

Black Eyed Peas -The E.N.D. Album Artwork

UPDATE: This artwork above is newly released and is not what was reported on below. I actually feel the above artwork (green computer generated face) is less enticing than the previous thought to be artwork.

Check out the cover for the Black Eyed Peas 5th studio album, The E.N.D. (Energy Never Dies). Seems the concept of the album will be a futuristic sound, as the cover follows roots made from the lead single's ("Boom Boom Pow") music video. I must say the logo is pretty cool! I'm hoping Fergie doesn't milk her green, headphone like braids for too long, cause that will get annoying. Though judging from press, she is running with the dark hair do lately.

Any way I'm am definitely looking forward to this album, It'll be an album I actually purchase this year-unless it gets leaked crazy early! The E.N.D. is in stores June 9th, 2009. What do you think of the cover, leave comments below!

Black Eyed Peas Product Place "Pow"

So, earlier today the anticipated video for the Black Eyed Peas, already and currently Billboard Hot 100 number 1 single, "Boom Boom Pow," was released. Check out the video below.



Overall the video did meet its match by making it seem futuristic ("I'm so 3000 and 8") like the song's sound. It was interesting to see the Peas each with their own solo shots, nice to see the two unknown members get recognized, more so. If you pay attention to the video closely you'll notice it seems to be a direct product placement for an HP touchable screen. Great move BEP, and It's almost so subtle that if you don't think to hard into it, it's easily miss-able.

It won't be a surprise to hear "Boom Boom Pow," featured in an legitimate commercial for this HP product, since they definitely pimped out their video well for HP.

Oh and the tree definitely reminds me of the VH1 Soul logo, am I the only one who does see that? Leave comments below!

Boom Boom NOW!

Finally the Black Eyed Peas (which sometimes sounds like Will.I.Am & Fergie only) received their first Billboard Hot 100 number 1 single, with their lead single to their upcoming album, "Boom Boom Pow."

The Energy Never Dies AKA The E.N.D. has been said to be the Pea's last album, which wouldn't be surprising with Fergie's recent solo success, and hence the title, END! Regardless I personally am really excited to hear their new album, the Black Eyed Peas commercially friendly Hip Hop Pop sound is infectious to say the least.

With that being said it's great that they finally earned their 1st Hot 100 number 1 single, which actually has topped the Hot 100 for it's second week in a row; I do think past singles released by them may have been more deserving of the number 1 spot. "Boom Boom Pow," hasn't fully grown on me, but it is catchy thanks to Fergs, but I like songs like "My Humps," and "Lets Get It Started," better. Any who their album The E.N.D. is slatted for a release on June 9th, 2009.
