Two albums were released in 1998 and 2000, to critical acclaim and modest sales.
In 2002, they were joined by a fourth member, Music/{{Fergie}},[[note]]Not to be confused with the wife of Prince Andrew[[/note]] formerly of the girl group Wild Orchid. By the time ''Elephunk'' and ''[[NewSoundAlbum Monkey Business]]'' were released in 2003 and 2005, the group had changed entirely, moving towards a pop sound with Fergie placed front and center, and much simpler lyrical content, intended to appeal to the LowestCommonDenominator. Their new style earned them numerous #1 hit singles and multi-platinum sales, to the point where some people didn't know they did anything pre-''Elephunk''.
The group took a hiatus from 2012-2014, before resuming work in 2015. In 2018, Fergie departed the group. In the same year, ''Series/TheVoice Philippines'' finalist Jessica Reynoso started touring with the group, adopting the stage name J Rey Soul.
Fergie, will.i.am, and Taboo have branched out into acting careers, and Taboo has also written comics. Meanwhile, apl.de.ap works to alleviate poverty in the Philippines through a foundation made in his name. will.i.am and apl.de.ap are also both coaches on different national versions of ''The Voice''.
