"Where
Is the Love?" is a single recorded by American band The Black Eyed Peas. Music
was released in June 2003 as the best song from their 3-rd album, Elephunk. It
is the group's first music to
feature Fergie. The single features vocals from
Justin Timberlake, although he is not officially credited on the song release.
It peaked
at 8-th on the Billboard Hot 100, and topped the charts in Australia and the
United Kingdom. Music became the biggest-selling song of 2003 in the latter
country. The group and Timberlake received 2 nominations, Record of the Year
and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, for "Where Is the Love?" at the 46th
Grammy Awards.
"Where
Is the Love?" debuted at 9-th on the Hot 100 in early July 2003 and spent
12 weeks inside the top 10, though the single only peaked at 8-th. This at the
time was the longest time a track had ever spent in the top 10 without peaking
above 5-th. The reason for this was fluctuating airplay and singles sales. It
ended up only spending 26 weeks on the chart, quickly declining on the Hot 100
after it left the top 10 in December 2003.
