Beginning this Hip-Hop stretch are N.E.R.D. with special guest Asher Roth next Wednesday evening at 6pm. N.E.R.D. has dominated the live Hip-Hop/Rock scene since their debut album In Search Of... exploded on the airwaves in late 2001. Featuring the singles “Lapdance” and “Rock Star,” In Search Of... transformed the production duo The Neptunes into Rock Stars as N.E.R.D.
N.E.R.D. consists of Pharrell Williams (lead vocals, piano/keyboards, rhythm guitar and percussion), Chad Hugo (lead guitar, piano/keyboards, saxophone and bass guitar) and Shae Haley (drums, percussion and backing vocals). But N.E.R.D. is grounded by the production ingeniousness that is The Neptunes.
The Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo) is a production duo responsible for many Hip-Hop and Pop hits of the late 90s and 2000s. Some of their famed work includes Justin Timberlake's Justified album, “Beautiful” and “Drop it Like It's Hot” by Snoop Dogg, and “Money Maker” by Ludacris. But producing was not enough for Williams and Hugo; they wanted to perform their music live instead of letting everyone else get all the credit.
N.E.R.D. will surely put on quite an energetic show on September 9th. These guys know and love music. They have been playing/producing since very early ages and have a superb knack for creating party music.
Aside from music, Pharrell Williams is a very passionate artist and has created an online social network where all kinds of artists may meet, share work and collaborate. www.ARTST.com showcases people's passion for art, music, film, dance, clothing, architecture, photography and much more.
As an ambassador to the greatest melting pot on Earth, I applaud Mr. Williams in his effort to create an artistic melting pot via the internet. I just hope to see this collaboration hit the streets of New York City so that I may once again witness the makings of the world's best art.
Peace ya'll,
Lady Liberty
