Will.I.Am has quickly become one of the music industry’s most sought after producers in a very short time. As the front-runner of the popular Hip Hop sensation The Black Eye Peas, it was only a matter of time before the noted rapper, producer and songwriter would take the lead on and off the stage.

Will.I.Am, born William James Adams, Jr. on March 15, 1975, recently took us back to how it all began with an intimate feature on Oprah Winfrey’s new “Visionaries” show, an insider’s view of the humble beginnings and magical journeys of today’s biggest stars.

In the deleted clip below, Will.I.Am discusses his upbringing, his teenage years and how he actually came up with rap names before finally nailing it down to his current stage name.
