Top 10 of 21st Century : Honorable Mention #1


PHARRELL "SKATEBOARD P" WILLIAMS 

Pharrell Williams has already made history for being one of the most successful and prolific producers to emerge during the last decade. As part of the beat-making duo The Neptunes, Pharrell and his partner Chad Hugo have helped A-List pop stars sell millions of albums and even earn Grammy Awards for the likes of Justin Timberlake, Nelly, and Usher.

While producers are typically faceless, behind-the-scenes types, Pharrell has managed to become a star in his own right.It is usually his voice behind the infectious choruses for his hits using his infectious flow to set trends when he name drops clothing brands and expensive trinkets in his verses.. He is a member of the alternative rock trio N.E.R.D., a teaming with Chad and childhood friend Shae Thornton, which has released two critically acclaimed, platinum albums. Plus, he has already had his own hit, His song "Frontin'," from the 2003 compilation The Neptunes Presents: The Clones!

From Production, to Rapping and even as far as clothing design /modelling, Pharrell Williams is one artist that will always be very well honored in the hip-hop culture !

**Favourite Verses By Pharrell!**


"Snoop Dogg’s “Drop It Like It’s Hot ”
“See these ice cubes, see these Ice Creams/Eligible bachelor, million-dollar boat that whiter than what’s spilling down your throat/The Phantom, exterior like fish eggs/The interior like suicide-wrist red.

"You can do it too"
"Life's a bitch but not too extreme
Life's got a fat ass, Trust me I'ma fuck full steam
I make the world cream and scream, while I'm gettin my cream
I'm coming to america call me Prince Akeem, yessir
"
