Will.i.am compares music making to Italian cooking

Will.i.am has compared the way he makes music to a chef cooking.

The Black Eyed Peas star said that Italian cooking often uses the same ingredients for different dishes - such as pizza and calzone.

Will.i.am, who releases his new album '#willpower' in September, added that he feels music making is similar, with the same ingredients being used in different ways to create new songs. He said:

"I'm like a chef – you have to have the ability to mess up a pizza and turn it into a calzone. It's hard to bake a pizza, use the same ingredients and make spaghetti and do lasagne."

He added: "Think about those dishes. They all have the same ingredients, except for the flour."
