Multi-platinum producer and songwriter will.i.am will release a new solo album, #willpower, in 2012 via Interscope Records. The set is lead by the first single "T.H.E (The Hardest Ever)," featuring Mick Jagger and Jennifer Lopez, which he premiered on Sunday's American Music Awards. A video for the song, directed by Rich Lee and shot in Los Angeles and London, will be released later this month.
