Will.i.am: 'New Peas album is positive'

Will.i.am has revealed that the new Black Eyed Peas album will be "positive" and "feel-good".

The singer and producer, whose sixth studio LP with the band is called The Beginning, said that the record provides reassurance in a time of "uncertainty".

Discussing the new album, he told The AP: "It symbolises growth, new beginnings and starts, a fresh new perspective.

"It's a positive, feel-good [album] at the time where there's question marks and uncertainty. People want to be reminded that it's going to be all right."

Will.i.am also confirmed that the LP will be out by the end of the year.

It was recently announced that Black Eyed Peas hit 'I Gotta Feeling' has broken a record after passing six million downloads.
