Black Eyed Peas front man will.i.am got political again this week, weighing in on why he and his group will be performing in China despite recent [unofficial] requests for artists to boycott the nation based on its relations with Tibet and an alleged link to the genocide in Darfur, Sudan. According to the BBC, will.i.am said it’s not appropriate to “punish a whole country.” “They have all this Chinese boycott stuff – they want to boycott the [2008 Olympic] games but do the people get punished when they have nothing to do with what's going on? …If you boycott China, when do they boycott America for what we're doing in Iraq?”
