Will.i.am is not one to rush perfection. After nearly 4 years, the singer is putting the finishing touches on his new solo album #willpower, which features superstars like Justin Bieber, LMFAO, Ne-Yo, and Nicole Scherzinger.
“There’s classical s***, like just me and a guitar and an orchestra or me with just an orchestra and a kid’s choir,” he told Billboard. “There’s some ghetto, ugly, dirty stuff. And then there’s dance stuff, global world stuff and, like, avant garde, left-of-center, for-art’s-sake music that has nothing to do with getting played on the radio. I’m just art-ing out. It’s pretty diverse.”
Though the Black Eyed Peas are currently on hiatus, will.i.am says the group will put out another album, he just doesn’t know when yet. For now though, the singer is trying to figure out what a solo tour will be like without the other three.
“I can’t just go out with a bunch of background dancers to make up for the fact Fergie, Ap and Taboo aren’t there,” he says, “So I have to come up with a different idea and invent something to make people say, ‘Dang, that was better than what you were doing with the Peas!’ That won’t be easy, but if I can’t do that, I’m staying home.”
For a taste of what will.i.am’s new record might sound like, watch his video for his latest single, “This Is Love” featuring Eva Simons below: SOURCE
I assume Britney's not on it then after all....?.....because I would find it shocking that they would mention Nicole and Ne-Yo as superstars before her.

Wasn't it originally just Big Fat Bass? I think they changed the tracklist when they pushed it back.

He might as well put himself under house arrest now.
How many singles is he going to release before this album actually comes out? lol
So far he's released T.H.E, Great Times and This is Love. I think the album is being released in like September or something, so there's time for 1 more official single. So we should get 4 songs before the album, unless he does extra promo singles, or pushes the album back again.
Cannot wait for the song with Nicole Scherzinger, hopefully he also has a song with Cheryl on this
