As the front man of Hootie & The Blowfish, Darius Rucker reinvented mainstream pop/rock in the mid-1990s. Now, Rucker is bringing his unique vocal talent to the country stage. This GRAMMY-winning singer/songwriter saw Learn to Live — his first country album — debut at number one on the Billboard charts, and watched the first single, "Don’t Think I Don’t Think About It," hold steady at the top of the chart for weeks.

The Charleston, S.C., native has been a fan of Buck Owens, Dwight Yoakam and Radney Foster since his early years. Fans of Hootie & The Blowfish — many of whom had already made the natural migration from pop to country radio — realize that the band’s catchy songs were rooted in the same elements that make great country music. His first country album earned him the 2009 Country Music Association Horizon Award.

Growing from a trio to a quartet, the Black Eyed Peas have transcended their hip-hop roots and have become a global phenomenon. The goal of the group is to connect with its audience through the most fundamental ways: making people have a good time.

In 1998, the original three members of the group, will.i.am, apl.de.ap and Taboo, released their debut album Behind the Front. The album garnered critical acclaim for the trio and its live band. The group's sophomore album, Bridging the Gap, was released in 2000, and the third album, 2003’s Elephunk, featured a new member, Fergie. Elephunk stormed the Top 40 with three singles.

Two years later, the quartet returned with its fourth album, Monkey Business, the first album co-written by all the members. The album featured the hit singles "Don’t Phunk with My Heart" and "My Humps." Two years later, the hit single "Boom Boom Pow" announced the group’s return for The E.N.D. (Energy Never Dies), its fifth album.
