/ 09:59 AM May 31, 2017

Is Fergie leaving The Black Eyed Peas to focus on her solo career?

This is the question on fans’ minds following the pop star’s resignation from Interscope Records, the company handling the American hip-hop group. She has partnered with music company BMG to create her own record label “Dutchess Music,” which will release her sophomore solo album entitled “Double Dutchess” this year, Variety reported.

Apparently, Fergie’s shift to full-fledged solo career didn’t sit well with the group’s remaining members Taboo (Jaime Luis Gomez), apl.de.ap (Allan Pineda Lindo Jr.) and will.i.am (William James Adams).

Netizens also noticed that Taboo had unfollowed Fergie but followed her again on the social networking site. Meanwhile, wil.li.am posted cryptic images of the original Black Eyed Peas trio on Instagram, creating speculation that Fergie might have left the band for good. His captions, such as “All that we are. All that we’re made of,” “Go back. Throwback. Future Cast” and “Hear no evil. See no evil. Speak no evil,” raised eyebrows among their longtime fans.

 Apl.de.ap, wil.i.am and Taboo formed The Black Eyed Peas until Fergie joined the band as its muse in 2003. 

When The Black Eyed Peas went on a hiatus, Fergie released her debut solo album, “The Dutchess,” in 2006, which spawned chart-topping hits such as “Fergalicious,” “Clumsy” and “Big Girls Don’t Cry.”  Gianna Francesca Catolico /ra
