''The Dutchess'' is the debut studio album by American pop singer Fergie, who is a member of the Black Eyed Peas. The album was first released in the U.S. on September 19, 2006. ''The Dutchess'' was available both as an edited, clean version and a Parental Advisory version and was released internationally quickly following the U.S. release. As of 2008, the album has sold more than six million copies worldwide. Due to the success of the album, it was re-released with bonus tracks and new covers in Japan, Australia in 2007 and later the United States in 2008.
The album produced 5 top five singles in the U.S., including three number-one hits on the Billboard Hot 100, "London Bridge", "Big Girls Don't Cry", and "Glamorous", as well as the number two single "Fergalicious" and the number five single "Clumsy". All five of the aforementioned singles have sold over two million digital downloads each in the U.S., thus setting a new record in the digital era for the most multi-platinum singles from one album. The song, "All That I Got (The Make Up Song)" has been remixed slightly and used as one of the two main music themes for Tyra Banks' talk show, ''Tyra''. - Wikipedia
The Black Eyed Peas have a similar career trajectory to No Doubt in that they both wrote a lot of really, really annoying songs, only to have their female voices improbably evolve into arbiters of cool. "London Calling" is a surprisingly sophisticated club jam from BEP's lead hump; hope it's the tip of a new iceberg
