Tomorrow sees the releases of the new Fergie single ‘L.A.LOVE (la la)’ featuring rapper YG (Young Gangsta). It has been six years since the former Black Eyed Peas singer has released her own solo single, bar a contribution to The Great Gatsby soundtrack with the track ‘A Little Party Never Killed Nobody (All We Got)’. The new single sees Fergie sticking to her hip-hop/pop territory but with a  fresher style, giving fans a taste of her upcoming second studio album, which was confirmed to be in progress at the beginning of last year. Watch the single’s video below.
