Producer, singer and judge on The Voice, is there anything Will.i.am can't do? 2013 seems like it is definitely going to be his year, as he is set to release his new album #WillPower, with some epic collaborations with Chris Brown, Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears and Nicole Scherzinger. With thumping beats, club anthems and pop hits, this collection of songs are going to be massive. Thumbs up to Will.i.am!

Tracklist:
1. Good Morning
A subtle and calming beginning to the album, violins and trumpets make up the background to the introduction as Will.i.am tells 'don't forget to dream'.
2. Hello
Hello is repetitive with a bodacious tune, the sound of children chanting consumes sections of the tune. A feel-good song that denotes partying with friends and will be an unmistakeable summer anthem.
3. This is Love
Previously released single featuring Eva Simons.
4. Scream and Shout
This is the epic track that brought him to number one and features pop princess Britney Spears, , Hit Boy, Waka Flocka Flame, Lil Wayne & Diddy in an extra special remix.
5. Let's Go ft Chris Brown
The soft sound of Chris Brown's voice intertwined with synth sirens, unbelievable build ups and thumping beats, this is guaranteed to be a hit. I love the conclusion to the song too- Will speaks in an extra-terresterial-esque voice about the meaning of the words 'Lets Go'- brilliant!
6. Gettin' Dumb ft 2NE1
This song has everything you need. Pounding bass, a decent rap and an enthralling rhythmn. I can't get enough of this one.
7. Geekin'
Will.i.am gets his geek on in this song, as he takes centre stage with an addictive rap that includes some of his catchiest phrases and a random Intel slogan mid-way through.
8. Freshy ft Juicy J
This song is like a fresh injection of swag, I love the synth combination and as Will.i.am says, it certainly possesses 'fresh' and 'clean' lyrics.
9. #thatPOWER
Will.i.am definitely knows how to market himself well, and this single recently released features pop prince Justin Bieber. If you haven't heard it already, you will be hooked instantly!
10. Great Times are Coming
Slowing down the tempo significantly, this tune is more of a ballad to begin with, but as is the producer and singer, he surprises us with his infectious beats and makes us want to party into the night!
11. The World is Crazy
An extremely relevant song to today's world, the producer and judge of The Voice talks about society, politics and the downfalls of the world in general.
12. Fall Down feat Miley Cyrus
Heavy on the feel-good, and extra heavy on the pop beat, this is infectious and will be released as a single on 19th of April, I can't wait!
13. Love Bullets ft. Skylar Grey
Reminiscent of This is Love, this song is still dominated by bass, but slower in tempo.
14. Far Away From Home ft. Nicole Scherzinger
Yet another top class collaboration for his album, this song is slightly easy on your now throbbing ears. The soft voice of Scherzinger and the pop beat make a perfect combination for a chart hit.
15. Ghetto Ghetto ft. Baby Kaely
Like The World Is Crazy, this song covers appropriate issues, primarly those to do with influences of the media on children.
16. Reach for The Stars
This one had its first play on Mars.. enough said.
17. Smile Mona Lisa
Stripped down,the guitars transport the listener to the mediterranean. Melodic genius, but who is Mona Lisa??
18. Bang Bang
Going in a completely different direction, Will.i.am combines banjos with a speak-easy and jazzy feel, then surprises our ears by encorporating a thumbing bass. Genius! The best end, to the best album.
