Plus he's going to be trying to help launch a Japanese pop group called 2NE1 internationally. And he did that song called Big Fat Bass with Britney Spears, so he needs to be ready to help promote it if it ever gets released as a single (which I doubt tbh).
I hope he does another song for Rihanna's next album. I really liked Photographs from Rated R.”
2NE1 is a Korean pop group and they are absolutely fantastic which is why I am very, very worried about this collaboration with will.i.am who is nowhere near as good of a producer as he thinks he is. It has always been my dream to have the best of the big KPop bands start to cross over to mainstream western audiences but if it's done wrong it will turn into a disaster (Wonder Girls Part 2).
I would really like to see the Peas take a long, long, long break because they haven't released anything good since 2005. And I am so ready for a new Fergie record since I miss her solo work.
