will.i.am: "2NE1 will make it big!"

26 May – On a recent visit to South Korea to see 2NE1, Black Eyed Peas rapper will.i.am has tipped girl group 2NE1's for international superstardom.

will.i.am stated: "I think 2NE1 will be big everywhere. Not just in Korea but in Brazil, America, the UK, Europe, Canada, Australia... We just have to make the right type of music to make people want to enjoy life."

He also believes that 2NE1 will be successful outside of Korea and takes it as a personal challenge for him to do so.

"I want to be known for that. Now that I found 2NE1, I really want to introduce them outside Korea."

The short snippet, which was aired through Baek Ji-Yeon's "People Inside" was recently uploaded to their Youtube channel for fans to watch.

The multi instrumentalist rapper has been working with the girls since 2010 on their US debut album. Earlier this month, he tweeted: "I came to Korea to 1. Meet my friends at CJ Entertainment. 2. Talk technology... and 3. Of course, meet with 2NE1."
