A hipster backlash is definitely overdue.

d k (d k), Monday, 23 June 2003 00:46 (twenty-two years ago)

I do.

adam west (adamwest), Monday, 23 June 2003 00:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I forgot to add "and why?"

Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 23 June 2003 00:50 (twenty-two years ago)

I like Pharrell, he looks like he's having a good time in the video.

adam west (adamwest), Monday, 23 June 2003 00:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Plus he's cute.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Monday, 23 June 2003 02:17 (twenty-two years ago)

And he isn't wearing his ugly hat, that's a little exciting!

Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Monday, 23 June 2003 02:20 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm a little bit in love with the guy.

adam west (adamwest), Monday, 23 June 2003 02:26 (twenty-two years ago)

pharrell looks like an ugly usher

Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Monday, 23 June 2003 06:52 (twenty-two years ago)

It would be fine if it not for the 'HEY - look! It's Pharrell, he's so HHOOTT right now!' vibe.

He's usually doing something really lame too - like that mouth organ shit in Grindin'... whatever.

Michael Dieter, Monday, 23 June 2003 07:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Will someone please create a bootleg mixing Big Black's cover of "He's a Whore" with Pharrell? Thanks.

daria g (daria g), Monday, 23 June 2003 08:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Emma does. WEhy? Cos she luuuurves him.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 23 June 2003 08:34 (twenty-two years ago)

who here gets excited when pharell makes a new song? (well, i do, but only about every 10th of them or so)

Jay K (Jay K), Monday, 23 June 2003 08:38 (twenty-two years ago)

I do! I squeak. And then I point at the telly and laugh. It's become a bit of a pavlovian reaction.

cis (cis), Monday, 23 June 2003 09:36 (twenty-two years ago)

find me a woman who doesnt think Pharrell is super hot....so's i can tease them for being apparently such a freak.

his video appearances are far less annoying then Diddy's or Dre's so i'm OK with them

stevem (blueski), Monday, 23 June 2003 10:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Is it just me, or is his head slightly out of shape at the top?

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 23 June 2003 10:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm pretty amazed Trife isn't here yet

Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Monday, 23 June 2003 10:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Pharrell roXXor, esp. when doing that "I'm brushing dandruff off myself" move, which he does a little too much, implying that he actually does have the D real bad.

I'd recommend Head and Shoulders, except that that would sound like a great sexx jamm to him and he'd spend the next 35 minutes in a studio cookin' it up and he'd offer it to B2K, and they bore me.

Neudonym, Monday, 23 June 2003 11:38 (twenty-two years ago)

when doing that "I'm brushing dandruff off myself" move,

I'll never understand that.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 23 June 2003 13:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Puffy at least had the benefit of cartoonish hedonism. Pharrel just stands there. Me and a friend were watching MTV and imagining where Pharrell would pop up in each video. One would involve him rising out the ocean.

Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 23 June 2003 19:58 (twenty-two years ago)

plus Puffy had messianicsm. and AMBITION.

Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 23 June 2003 19:59 (twenty-two years ago)

two weeks pass...
Pharrell popping up in any and all videos makes each one better thanks. Not only is he super hot, super sexy , he's the reason whatever song (since he does all the hot ish) is hot in the first place he can plant his fine self in any damn video he very well pleases. K thanks. I see that man in my dreams. Just luv him.

Cush, Saturday, 12 July 2003 03:53 (twenty-two years ago)

he looks like a dolphin

Ronan (Ronan), Sunday, 13 July 2003 14:16 (twenty-two years ago)

a nice dolphin though, flipper or that kind

Ronan (Ronan), Sunday, 13 July 2003 14:16 (twenty-two years ago)

He actually looks kinda tough etc on the Dazed and Confused cover

Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Sunday, 13 July 2003 14:25 (twenty-two years ago)

he looks like a dolphin

This is the most true thing I have ever heard, ever.

cis (cis), Sunday, 13 July 2003 14:40 (twenty-two years ago)

two weeks pass...
He is soooooooooooooo HOT, a pretty damn fine dolphin!!The frontin' video is heaven!!

Fjbo, Monday, 28 July 2003 19:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Notice how he picks up the empty paper cups from the floor at the end of the party in the Frontin' video. That's one humble superstar right there let me tell you that.

JoB (JoB), Monday, 28 July 2003 22:15 (twenty-two years ago)

I watch MTV with the sound off *cos it sucks*, but whenever I see Pharrell in a video I turn it up cos you can be sure it'll be good.... 'Frontin' being the case in point.... humming it after 1 play....

Moreover, he's not afraid to smile dopily and look a bit lost, and he's pretty un-bling campared to Diddy or Jay-Z. He's an unStar.

In short, I get excited.

lee ward (lee ward), Monday, 28 July 2003 22:47 (twenty-two years ago)

The "Frontin'" video has a unique indie/hip hop (but NOT "indie hip hop") crossover vibe, and it shoehorns Jay-Z and a bunch of lovelies into that aesthetic nicely. I like how Pharrell is far too gentle and self-mocking a figure to fit into the typical hip hop video aesthetic, so directors are forced to come up with something new.

The song is OK, his vocals strain a bit too much for my comfort, but I haven't heard it enough times. The Jay-Z part is nice though. He's doing a better job at cameos than his own albums these days.

amateurist (amateurist), Monday, 28 July 2003 23:04 (twenty-two years ago)

And I should add, he doesn't fit into the "nu soul" format, videowise or otherwise, either--he doesn't have the earthiness or ponderousness associated with that genre. He's too goofy.

I'm really not tired of him, although maybe if I watched MTV more...

amateurist (amateurist), Monday, 28 July 2003 23:05 (twenty-two years ago)

you Pharrell fans are trippin'. But not nearly as much as he is.

Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 28 July 2003 23:06 (twenty-two years ago)

God, I'm basically un-controlable wen i c Pharrell, he such a hottie he jst makes me hyper-ventilate, like, really, he gets me that excited! mmmmm.... ne1 tell me where i can get stills from Frontin vid?? pleeeeez, cz he just sooo fine

Jennifer Anderson, Friday, 8 August 2003 13:50 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm gettin' a bit tired of that fuckin' falsetto, honestly.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:01 (twenty-two years ago)

It's kinda funny, like he just figured out that women find him attractive and he's only starting to play it up now (like with the tux and Usher mannerisms in the "Excuse Me Miss" video. But he looks fucking COOL in the "Pass the Courvosier" video, especially the part in the alley where everyone is dressed like 30's gangsters. Everyone else in the video looks like such a clown, but he's just slithering.

When is Chad gonna get jealous? Can he just not sing falsetto? Is that it?

Tom Breihan (Tom Breihan), Friday, 8 August 2003 18:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm surprised that so
many people on this thread
listen with their eyes

Haikunym (Haikunym), Friday, 8 August 2003 18:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Whatever, dude. You watch videos too. Don't front.

Tom Breihan (Tom Breihan), Friday, 8 August 2003 19:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Tom discovering that people sometimes DON'T watch videos shockah! But maybe Haikunym secretly does, etc.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 8 August 2003 19:11 (twenty-two years ago)

(actually my post
was an homage to a point
made another time.)

I think that pharrell
is a natural on film--
um, or video--

and I like when he
shows up all doing his thing.
I am voting YES

Haikunym (Haikunym), Friday, 8 August 2003 19:15 (twenty-two years ago)

OK then.

Tom Breihan (Tom Breihan), Friday, 8 August 2003 19:17 (twenty-two years ago)

let the man march

stevem (blueski), Friday, 8 August 2003 21:30 (twenty-two years ago)

three months pass...

Donna Sheehy, Tuesday, 11 November 2003 16:36 (twenty-one years ago)

all of those videos are corny EXCEPT the GRINDIN" with my peoples but Pharell is always wearing that yellow hat with that damn billabong shirt and dirty jeans when he's on tv or when he is home. yeah ladies he is hot a HOT DAMN mess

monica (monica), Wednesday, 12 November 2003 00:08 (twenty-one years ago)

aimee anderson, Thursday, 18 March 2004 17:35 (twenty-one years ago)

I think he looks more like a turtle.

Sym (shmuel), Thursday, 18 March 2004 18:48 (twenty-one years ago)

I think Chad is way cuter.

Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 18 March 2004 19:41 (twenty-one years ago)

though I didn't realize it until I saw pictures of him rocking the keytar.

Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 18 March 2004 19:42 (twenty-one years ago)
