Posted by Matty U under About Miss Info , Interviews , Videos[9] Comments
In extension to Miss Info’s interview with Pharrell about curating the soundtrack of the Oscar’s, P also discussed how he was bored with music and was once uninspired because of the endless traveling he was doing. However, in the past six to eight months taking on a number of projects, P said he felt like “he missed himself” and felt a sense of inspiration by the talents of Little Dragon, Yuna and A$AP.
“For me, I was bored, i have to say, I was honestly bored by music everything sounded like, you know if you turn it to a pop station everything was like one long ass dance song and if you turn to the urban stations, everything felt like one long ass emo, hip/hop quasi R&B record…it kind of just felt that way. And i wasn’t mad at it. But there was also incredible things you know like Little Dragon, and Yuna, and A$AP.”

Of course he is talking about Drake, and Kanye and all these other happy go lucky soft rappers. But on the low, most of the rappers doing Pharrell impersanations.
Who first was skate boarding? Who first started wearing exclusive, foreign clothes like Bape? Who first started experimenting with these funky electronic sounds? Who was rapping, singing and humming? Pharrell.
These emotional rappers following his lead.
