Not to mention they jumped straight into white pop music and made stars outta timberlake, spears etc. Like their music or not, but every 5 songs on the radio is a npetunes song. period. its been like this for 4 years now. Now we hear cloning of their style coming up (wait - ying yang twins, play - david banner, shut up - lil kim), people think its the neptunes and like but its not. Its reach the point that theyve influenced the industry nothing short of what nirvana did to rock in the 90's, maybe surpassinng. give it 5 more years and we'l see how rediculous this group really was. not to mention they are doing the score for the next voltron movie ( they play like 12 instruments almost classically trained in piano not suprised). 259424@blogcritics.org Sat, 22 Oct 2005 11:50:10 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/07/123710.php#comment-232208 I'm pretty sure Pharell is a brotha.

Thank you! 232199@blogcritics.org Tue, 13 Sep 2005 02:21:42 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/07/123710.php#comment-232195 Huge fan of Pharell Williams and was interested in knowing his nationality. Thanks a lot. 232195@blogcritics.org Tue, 13 Sep 2005 02:09:07 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/07/123710.php#comment-229054 In terms of number of hits and catchy, instantly recognizable beats written for other artists, Pharrell is right up there with Dre these days as 1A to Dre's #1. Kanye's huge and popular as an artist in his own right these days. I don't really feel his beats and melodies, but he's probably #3 biggest as a producer. After that, you can talk about someone like Lil Jon as #4 for the crunk sound. That is all. 229054@blogcritics.org Fri, 9 Sep 2005 09:37:28 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/07/123710.php#comment-229045 please Pharell write me, i love u..... soooooooo mutch!!! 229045@blogcritics.org Fri, 9 Sep 2005 09:19:36 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/07/123710.php#comment-218115 I'm french and y don't skeak english very well but I all neptune production and specialy chad hugo and pharell williams, I think they are the best producer of u.s and I like pharell voice 218115@blogcritics.org Mon, 29 Aug 2005 11:29:43 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/07/123710.php#comment-200695 I am the biggest admirer of pharrel.

Time is a big factor also and they have not been doing it long enough (counting the underground years) where as Pharell more than qualifies because his impact has been widespread. Dr. Dre is an absolute on this list but the Alchemist is rather iffey. It seems you are judging on maybe your favorite records over all but I think to make a greatest Producer like this you have to take into fact so much more. Where is Missy and Timbo or DJ Premier, what about Pete Rock who I ma not as fond of but I recognize he deserves his place here. What about Rick Reuben and Russell Simmons they were pioneer producers to Hip Hop not just moguls? 77781@blogcritics.org Mon, 2 Aug 2004 18:58:06 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/09/07/123710.php#comment-77632 Top 5 Hip Hop Producers - 1)Dr.Dre 2)Lil Jon 3)The Alchemist 4)Kanye West 5)Pharell Williams 77632@blogcritics.org Mon, 2 Aug 2004 06:31:13 EDT
