Black Eyed Peas likes Rain and the Wonder Girls

Famous American hip hop group, The Black Eyed Peas consisting of members will.i.am, apl.de.ap, Taboo, and Fergie were recently interviewed by a Korean News Station. When asked who their favorite Korean Star was, one of the members stated that they liked Rain and The Wonder Girls.

This isn't the first time they recognized a Korean artist, as will.i.am gave Kero One a personalized video message. It seems like a lot of American artists are interested in Korean acts these days. Hopefully, this time period will be looked back upon as the start of big things for Asian Artists in America. Thanks to Sarah West and wana for the tip.

Hopefully other Americans will like the Wonder Girls too! I’ve never really been interested in Rain though. The first song of his I heard was ‘Rainism’, I found it hilarious!

YAY!!!! RAIN AND WG DAEBAK!!!!!!

 
LEV's avatar

That’s cool, but hopefully that’s not all they know considering they came over to the U.S. for a larger and not to mention, American audience. They’ve been in magazines and television shows, Rain in a movie, so it’s hard NOT knowing about them.

 
UGoGirl's avatar

Yay Will.i.am!!!

 
GaEulNr1's avatar

Just some PR stuff, manager told him to say that.

 
UGoGirl's avatar

Oh, and someone said something about a collaboration, Fergie collaborated with Koda Kumi awhile back. Not Korean, but definitely a popular Asian artist.
