Pharrell seems to be going all pop on this one.

as opposed to the entire output of his music career?

lol. his first album had a lot of pop for sure, but also a lot of hip-hop, he was telling stories about his youth in the hood on some songs, and had guests like Snoop, Jay-Z, Slim Thug, Pusha T, etc. he said he won't be rapping on the new album though, and the features are as poppy as it gets.

he has the clout to pull in the big stars.

I honestly love "Happy." It literally... makes me happy.

In My Mind had some awesome shit like "Show You How To Hustle." Yeah. Y'all heard Out Of My Mind w/ Quest Love?

I love N*E*R*D* though. For real.

Also, The Neptunes Present Clones is incredible and such an underrated album.

"Swimming Pools" is the new "Say It Ain't So."

Thoughts?

great post. CLONES is insane. i love Pharrell.

"We will not be the losers."

finished listening. 7/10

there have been a couple of better West Coast rap albums in the last few years.

by the way, a couple of years ago i told you i didn't like We Are Young Money album.. well, now i love it. :p

you should. It's really good. Haha.

Watch 2 Chainz Peform "Outroduction" With The Roots On 'Fallon'

2 Chainz' last album is actually a pleasant surprise. i was sleeping on it when it came out.

the singles are crazy. on the last couple of tracks tracks, he starts getting all mellow and introspective, like you'd never expect from him. their instrumentals are beautiful as well.

new Denzel Curry single is really psychedelic, it already seems like his new album is gonna be on another level than Nostalgia 64: https://soundcloud.com/denzelcurryph...adium-starship

until some good shit gets dropped this year, I really have no business posting here.

new Vince Staples, SpaceGhostPurrp and Migos projects are dropping this week.

i think that the new Vince Staples album will be right up your alley.

new SpaceGhost what???
