Black Eyed Peas will.i.am Doesn’t Like Tupac + Notorious B.I.G.’s music!
Tupac and Notorious B.I.G. are two of hip hops best rappers of all time, but not in Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am eyes…
CelebnMusic247.com reports that will.i.am says he doesn’t dig Tupac and Notorious B.I.G.’s music, and he has a good reason for not following the status quo.
According to will.i.am, who was a guest on veteran rapper Skillz’s podcast, “Hip Hop Confessions” says the legends’ music didn’t “speak to his spirit.”
Basically he doesn’t relate to their music!
Could it be the simple fact that the Black Eyed Peas, who started off as hip hop turned to pop music, which was their golden ticket to music fame? Oh yeah, also with the help of Fergie.

He also speculated … had he absorbed Biggie and 2Pac’s raps, he would’ve been stuck in his L.A. hood instead of touring worldwide with his multi-platinum group.
It’s an interesting take, especially since Will has credited late N.W.A co-founder Eazy-E — AKA “The Godfather of Gangsta Rap” — numerous times for jump-starting his career.

Will says acts like A Tribe Called Quest, Eric B. and Rakim and De La Soul were way more influential to BEP than Pac and B.I.G. – That makes sense since their music is totally different from Pac and Biggie.
You can hear it in BEPs music.
Although, for better or worse, none of those acts had a Fergie!!!
FYI: apl.de.ap, and Taboo are two of the coolest people you could meet, but will.i.am is not only weird, but his is supper caddy.
