Black Eyed Peas drop ‘Monkey Business (20th Anniversary Edition)’

The group receives RIAA plaques in recognition of staggering sales milestones

Celebrating yet another milestone, six-time Grammy Award-winning multi-platinum Los Angeles-based pop-rap group Black Eyed Peas release the new 20th Anniversary Edition of their classic fourth full-length LP, Monkey Business, in honor of the albumโ€™s 20th anniversary. The 20th Anniversary Edition notably collects all the albumโ€™s remixes including โ€œDon’t Phunk With My Heart (Chicago House Remix Version),โ€ and โ€œDon’t Lie (Beets & Produce, NY Mix Version),โ€ plus unreleased tracks such as โ€œBend Your Back,โ€ โ€œShake Your Monkeyโ€ and โ€œMake Them Hear You.โ€ Monkey Business is also available on Ruby Red vinyl.

Two decades ago, the pioneering collective first unveiled Monkey Business on June 7, 2005. It debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, marking their first Top 10 entry on the respective chart. Out of five Grammy Award nominations, Black Eyed Peas received Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for “Donโ€™t Phunk With My Heart” in 2006 and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for โ€œMy Humpsโ€ in 2007.

UMe celebrated the multi-Platinum success of the world-renowned The Black Eyed Peas, with a special RIAA plaque presentation at FYI Studios in Hollywood. Known for their genre-defying fusion of pop, hip-hop, and electronic music, high-energy performances, and chart-topping global anthems, the group continues to redefine the sound of a generation.

Among these awards, the 2009 epic The E.N.D. (The Energy Never Dies) has notched a six-times platinum certification, also scoring a 15-times platinum certification for โ€œI Gotta Feeling,โ€ a diamond for โ€œBoom Boom Pow,โ€ a six-times platinum certification for โ€œImma Be,โ€ and a five-times platinum certification for โ€œMeet Me Halfway.โ€ Meanwhile, Monkey Business recently garnered a five-time platinum certification with โ€œMy Humpsโ€ going five-time platinum, โ€œPump Itโ€ going four-time platinum and โ€œDonโ€™t Phunk With My Heartโ€ now double platinum. Finally, 2003โ€™s Elephunk has picked up a four-time platinum certification with โ€œWhere Is the Love?โ€ certified five-time platinum, โ€œLetโ€™s Get It Startedโ€ certified four-time platinum, and โ€œHey Mamaโ€ certified platinum.

Black Eyed Peas have now eclipsed global sales of 65 million-plus, making them one of the best-selling acts in history.

Throughout 2025, the group have also commemorated their 30th anniversary with a series of limited-edition physical reissues. The new vinyl versions of Behind The Front, Elephunk, Monkey Business, and The E.N.D. (The Energy Never Dies) are available now.
