According to will.i.am,
founding member and frontman
of Black Eyed Peas, the 'Yes
We Can Song' was inspired by
Senator Barack Obama's 2008
presidential campaign and
especially the speech Obama
gave following the New
Hampshire primary. He states,
'It made me reflect on the
freedoms I have, going to
school where I went to school,
and the people that came
before Obama like Martin
Luther King, presidents like
Abraham Lincoln that paved the
way for me. . . .' Dylan says,
'The speech was inspiring
about making change in America
and I believe what it says and
I hope everybody votes.'

The music video includes
excerpts from Obama's speech
and appearances from several
celebrities: Scarlett
Johansson, John Legend, Herbie
Hancock, Kate Walsh, Kareem
Abdul Jabbar, Adam Rodriquez,
Kelly Hu, Adam Rodriquez,
Amber Valetta, and Nick
Cannon. 'I'm blown away by how
many people wanted to come and
be a part of it in a short
amount of time. It was all out
of love and hope for change
and really representing
America and looking at the
world,' will.i.am said.
