Electronic Arts , iTunes and A&M Records today announced a partnership that marries one of the year's biggest videogames The Urbz: Sims in the City- with one of the year's hottest bands ? The Black Eyed Peas.

will the band be characters in the game and provide nine tracks re-recorded completely in Simlish the game's quirky language ? but a special edition version of the game will include exclusive, never-released tracks from The Black Eyed Peas available via an iTunes download card.

B.E.P's seem to be promoting an awful lot these days - weren't they on the front of Microsoft's or Sony's download music page as well as promoting iLife recently? Anyway I guess it's good for iTunes that they'll be getting the tracks, is it exclusive?

black eyed peas have been around forever and have only been "recognized" since adding the white girl who shows her ass non stop (singing/lyrics are soooo 5 mins ago...) everywhere they go (I can't complain, she does have a nice ass). They aren't really even very good, and have only gotten worse with her in the group and their new clubby sound...though I guess some people enjoy chanting the words "get stupid."
