History
editStarting in 1995, Fratantuno, Yoshiaki, and Lapin collaborated as founding members of the music group The Black Eyed Peas (BEP). The trio contributed to songwriting as well as touring, including the Grammy-winning "Let's Get It Started", the band's first single "Joints & Jam", "Request + Line", and the #1 hit "Where Is the Love?".
