Black Eyed Peas' next album, Bridging the Gaps , should be out on Interscope in August and includes collaborations with De La Soul, Les Nubians, Mos Def, Chali 2na from Jurassic 5, Wyclef Jean, and DJ Premier. It promises to be more up-tempo than the last one and will hopefully have more than one single. So, instead of another single, they decided for us to do another album because they thought Behind the Front didn't have anything left in it. There are a lot of big hitters behind the new project at Interscope. And sometimes people are a little put off by something that isn't that.
Long Beach has a particularly eclectic mix and different musical stylings.
I like about Long Beach. I'm not really into the Eastside gangster kind of thing. That's not really our angle. Their first EP, Fresh Mode , was a thoroughly enjoyable gander, but their new songs are even better. No, you don't.
