SINGAPORE: American hip-hop group Black Eyed Peas will be celebrating their 30th anniversary with a show at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Aug 25.
The news was announced on social media by concert organiser SAH Entertainment.
Tickets range from S$158 to $288, and go on general sale on March 3 from 10am onwards via Sistic. There will also be a pre-sale for members of SAH Entertainment on Feb 28 from 10am.
The group comprise rappers Will.i.am, Apl.de.ap and Taboo. They last performed in Singapore at the Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix 2022.
Formed in 1995, Black Eyed Peas are known for hits like Where Is The Love? (2003), Let’s Get It Started (2004) and I Gotta Feeling (2009). They were at one time a quartet with lead singer Fergie, who joined in 2002, but she has not performed with them live since 2015. Her departure was confirmed in 2018.
Since 2018, singer Jessica Reynoso, who goes by the stage name J. Rey Soul, has been performing with the group. The Season 1 finalist of singing competition The Voice Of The Philippines (2013 to 2015) was mentored by Apl.de.ap on the show.
The poster for the group’s upcoming show here does not feature J. Rey Soul, and it is unclear if she will be part of the gig. She had taken part in the group’s Formula One concert in Singapore in 2022.
