In 2003, The Black Eyed Peas released “Where Is the Love?” — a socially conscious anthem that marked a turning point in their career. Written in response to global unrest and inspired by the aftermath of 9/11, the song blends hip-hop, pop, and soul to deliver a message of love, tolerance, and hope.
Featuring uncredited vocals by Justin Timberlake, “Where Is the Love?” became the group’s first major hit, reaching No. 1 in over a dozen countries and earning Grammy nominations. Its lyrics still resonate today, asking a question the world continues to face: Where is the love?
