Last year's Clash-sampling, terror-ific "Paper Planes" found a second life this summer, thanks to Pineapple Express and a bunch of hot rappers.

In July Common released the two-track Announcement EP, which was really just that: an announcement that there was a new record on the way, of which Pharrell Williams figured to be a big part.

When we first brought up the selling power trio of Santogold, Julian Casablancas, and Pharrell we played you their fast food-redolent jingle "My Drive Thru" and mentioned that there would eventually be a video ... or, well, Chuck Taylor commercial...

It's an unlikely trio of artist that are helping get Converse's centennial celebration underway.

What do you get when you combine the selling power of Bud Light's Santogold with the laconic New York charm of the Stroke's Casablancas and the non-laconic L.A. sizzle of N.E.R.D.-y Pharrell Williams (not featuring Lindsay Lohan)? Basically, a well-produced... CONTINUE READING SANTOGOLD, JULIAN CASABLANCAS AND PHARRELL ARE CONVERSE ALL STARS»

Pharrell and N.E.R.D. have been on our minds a lot lately, the In Search Of...-era coming up by way of comparison when describing to friends the production ticks and sleazy beats of "Golden Prize," the first single from Apes & Androids' awesome debut LP. So, news of new N.E.R.D. is welcome, particularly because, as expected, they're flashing some new looks. And we dig at least one of them: The sax 'n' double-bass verses kill, but the hooks are soporifically smoothed out and the "all the girls standing in the line..." line is just another slice of "B.O.O.T.A.Y." Don't think Apes & Androids will sound like this anytime soon. N.3.R.D. is out sometime this spring.
