I was talking about production the other night with my roommate. We were both telling stories of how we had to stand up in defense of The Neptunes when talking to other people about music. Which should be mind boggling to you. I mean I still hear N.O.R.E. “Superthug” when I’m out that should say enough right there. I bet you forgot they made that.
Sooooooo. I was telling another friend of mine about the discussion I had the night prior and she sent me the youtube links to this Neptunes track I had never heard before.
It’s definitely at the top of the Neptunes beat heap. How this was never released is beyond me. Pharrell needs to go back in the studio and make this a single.
This is Pharrell in the studio with Natasha Ramos while he makes the beat and comes up with the melody. She looks completely uncomfortable, like she’s never been in a writing session before. Gold. That’s just the Producer of The Decade in his prime right there don’t get scared now…
