La historia de The Black Eyed Peas se remonta a mediados de la década de 1990, cuando los talentosos músicos will.i.am (William Adams) y apl.de.ap (Allan Pineda Lindo) se conocieron en Los Ángeles. Ambos compartían una pasión por la música hip-hop y rápidamente comenzaron a colaborar. La primera alineación se completó con Taboo (Jaime Luis Gómez) y Kim Hill como corista.
Inicialmente, el grupo fue conocido como Atban Klann y firmaron un contrato con Ruthless Records, una discográfica fundada por el legendario Eazy-E. Sin embargo, después de la prematura muerte de Eazy-E en 1995, el álbum que habían grabado fue archivado y el grupo cambió su nombre a The Black Eyed Peas.
En 1998, The Black Eyed Peas lanzó su álbum debut titulado Behind the Front, con la colaboración de la cantante Macy Gray. El álbum fue bien recibido por la crítica y ayudó a establecer una base de fans leal. Su segundo álbum, Bridging the Gap, lanzado en 2000, continuó en la misma línea y aumentó su reconocimiento en la industria.
A pesar de su creciente popularidad, Kim Hill decidió dejar el grupo, lo que llevó a la incorporación de Fergie (Stacy Ann Ferguson) en 2002. Esta incorporación marcó un hito en la carrera de la banda, elevándolos a nuevas alturas.
Con Fergie en la formación, The Black Eyed Peas lanzó su tercer álbum, Elephunk, en 2003. Este álbum fue un éxito internacional,

I got a secret formula
It's got a little bit'a ha and a little bit'a ho
I got a secret formula
It's a little bit'a ha and a little bit'a ho
I got a secret formula
It's just a little bit'a ha and a little bit'a ho
I got a secret, so keep it on the low
Never tell ya make sure nobody know because
In my lab I got fist
In my lab I got rhymes
In my lab I got funk in my lab
You can smell it when before you stepped in my lab
So loud make a brotha go deafed in my lab
The mad scientist I'm straight mad in my lab
Blowin up *** like Baghdad in my lab
Spies try to spy try to see up in my lab
Now private eyes hound while I be up in my lab cause
I know something that I can't tell
Won't find out cause I keep it so well
You can bang on my head till my head swell
I got a new formula I can't tell
Where I got a secret formula
It's got a little bit'a ha and a little bit'a ho

Never tell ya make sure nobody know because
In my lab I got beats
In my lab I got feet
In my lab they try to creep in my lab
Conspiricists try to find out secrets to the lab
But information won't leak cause I keeps it in the lab
Top security so thieves can't nab
No way to obtain, no way to have
You can't grab on to what's not possible
Why risk your life going through these obstacles
Don't even try to get it
Don't even try to get it
A lotta people attempt it, but they gotta get it
And when they gotta get it, yo the secret's hidden
That's just the way the song's written, bro
