  hello everyone and welcome to movie goodness where we examine life through cinema here on the kb radio network i am your host kevin reeds and welcome to the month of june of 2025 everybody we are what is this officially the middle part of the year we've reached the halfway point or is it at the end of the month I don't know how it goes, but we have reached June of 2025, and it feels like, it feels like we have had 12 months of action in 2025 already, at least here in New Orleans. New Orleans has been popping literally since the first day of the year. It all started with the terror attack that took place on bourbon or in the French Quarter on New Year's Day we had snow day we had a blizzard here in New Orleans we've had escaped convicts down here in New Orleans we've had slave plantations burned to the ground it's just been wow for the first five months of this year and it feels like we are at the end of the year I'm like my god we just got to June But it is what it is. And I'm just talking about New Orleans. I can go on. I can do an entire show about worldwide implications, you know, with this buffoon that's in the White House and all of that foolishness. It's just been wild for the first five months of this year. But things are starting to pick up. There are brighter days ahead. and Since we're in the month of June, why not do something celebratory? Why not talk about something that's exciting and uplifting? And today's episode is just that. In case you don't know, June is Black Music Month. It's been celebrated here in the United States since 1979, believe it or not. For 46 years, June has been Black Music Month. Unfortunately, I didn't know this until, what, about five, six years ago, and when I realized that June is designated as Black Music Month. That just goes to show you how much respect and love that it gets worldwide, but I'm going to do my part and celebrate it. And since the month of June is set aside to appreciate the contributions of black artists, African-American artists, composers, singers, and songwriters throughout American history. Today, we're gonna showcase one in particular and this is an artist who I am a giant fan of and millions of others are. You probably heard music that he has performed, produced, wrote, whatever the case may be and you may not even know that he was a part of it this year's black history or not black history but black music month episode we are going to showcase the one the only pharrell yes pharrell williams this is his episode today and in accordance to black music month we're gonna talk about his history and how he became who he is in the industry and since we're talking about pharrell And to go with the motif of this show, we're going to review a film that is focused on Pharrell, and that is Piece by Piece, the animated Lego slash documentary that focused on Pharrell Williams. Pharrell Williams, he was born on April the 5th, 1973, and he is professionally known as simply Pharrell. and he is a musician, a singer, a songwriter, a rapper, a record producer, and a fashion designer, believe it or not. He became the first known as one half of the music production duo The Neptunes, who he partnered with Chad Hugo. They formed this group in 1992, I believe, and 15 of their productions have peaked within the top 10. of the Billboard Hot 100, which... includes four songs that peaked at the very top of the charts. The two also formed the rock and hip-hop band N.E.R.D. or N.E.R.D. back in 1999 and Pharrell served as the lead vocalist of that group. He has been regarded as one of the most influential producers in modern popular music. Pharrell co-founded the label Star Trek Entertainment with Chad Hugo in 2001 and in case you was wondering why he didn't get a copyright strike or anything like that it was Trek with an A not an E and so he avoided that but he's a huge Star Trek fan which a lot of people are so in dedication to that he named his record label Star Trek. Pharrell back in 2003 He had a debut single which dropped and it featured Jay-Z and the song was called Frontin' and that peaked at number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. He then signed with Virgin Records and Interscope Records to release his debut solo album In My Mind in 2006 which peaked at number three and the billboard 200 despite mixed critical reception And I'm in that mixed. I liked a couple of songs on that album. I wasn't a big fan of In My Mind, but he had some bangers on there. It wasn't like it was trash. It wasn't trash, but it was kind of, it was eh. But Pharrell produced and guest performed alongside T.I. on Star Trek signee Robin Thicke's 2013 song Blurred Lines. And that's the song. that took the world by storm in 2013 and for many years after that and that song peaked at the very top of the billboard hot 100 and it received diamond certification by the recording industry association of america that same year his guest appearance alongside neil rogers on daft punk's song Get Lucky peaked at number two on the chart. and won record of the year and best pop dual group performance at the 56th annual Grammy Awards. Pharrell's 2013 single Happy, released for the soundtrack to the animated film Despicable Me 2, became the second song to peak atop the charts that same year. It also served as lead single on his second album, Girl, in 2014, which peaked at number two on the billboard 200 and saw positive critical acclaim. Pharrell received numerous accolades and nominations. He has won 13 Grammy Awards including three for producer of the year non-classical one of one as member of the Neptunes. He is also a two-time Academy Award nominee. uh in 2014 no surprise he was nominated for best original song for happy and in 2017 for best picture as a producer on the film hidden figures i know a lot of people didn't know that he actually produced that film um he didn't win neither one of those awards but hey it was an honor to be nominated as sole proprietor he founded the multi-disciplinary media company I am other in 2012 which acts as both a record label and creative umbrella for the other endeavors such as uh his fashion label and retail billion dollar boys club he has served as men's creative director for Louis Vuitton since 2023 uh going back to his upbringing as I said before he was born on August the 5th 1973 in Virginia Beach Virginia he is the oldest of three sons of Carol Carolyn who is a school teacher and Farrell Williams who was a handyman in Virginia Beach his family history goes back many generations in in Virginia and North Carolina. One of his ancestors journeyed to West Africa in 1831, prompting other relatives to migrate from the U.S. to Liberia in 1832. Williams met his producing partner, Chad Hugo, in the seventh grade summer band group where Williams played the drums and Hugo played tenor saxophone. They attended Princess Anne High School where they were in the school's band, the fabulous marching Cavaliers. Pharrell graduated from high school in 1991 and he attended Northwestern University for two years before he dropped out to pursue his musical career. It was at that point that Pharrell formed a hip-hop group named Surrounded by Idiots. That was the name of the group. Surrounded by Idiots with Chad Hugo along with his cousin. Yes, a lot of people don't know this. his cousin Timbaland and Magoo RIP. Magoo passed away a couple of years ago I believe. They disbanded before making any records though. They didn't. So if you go trying to search Surrounded by Idiots and find some unreleased tracks you're not gonna find it. They didn't make anything. He then formed a four-piece R&B type group the Neptunes with Hugo and his friends Mike and Shay. They entered a high school talent show where they were discovered by producer Teddy Riley. Yes, Teddy Riley from the group Guy, Backstreet, and so many more. He's a super producer in his own right when it comes to R&B in the 80s and 90s. He worked with Michael Jackson. He worked with, I mean, numerous. He's a big-time producer. But he was discovered. He discovered Pharrell Williams and his group, the Neptunes, whose studio was next to the school. That's how he got to hear him. After graduating, the group signed with Riley. Pharrell wrote Riley's verse on Rex in Effect's 1992 song, Rump Shaker. Yeah, that was written by Pharrell. As the Neptunes, Pharrell and Hugo produced... Noriega's 1998 single Super Thug. The Neptunes began working with rap duo Clips in the late 1990s and worked on Clips album exclusive audio footage which was not released.

Williams and Hugo signed clips. to the record label through Williams Star Trek Entertainment. The Neptunes produced songs for singers such as Babyface, who they produced songs on the 2001 album he put out face-to-face, including the lead single, There She Goes. And the Neptunes produced the Britney Spears song, I'm a Slave for You and Boys, on her third album, Britney. in 2001. In 2002, Clipse released their debut album, Lord Willing, with the Neptunes producing the entire album. That year, the Neptunes produced numerous songs for Justin Timberlake's debut album Justified, including the singles, uh, Señorita, Like I Love You, and Rock Your Body. In 2003, the Neptunes released a composition album clone. Now, get this. According, now, depends on the source. According to the unnamed, I think this was late 2003, something like that, there was a survey conducted. And according to this survey, it was found that the Neptunes produced almost 20% of the songs played on British radio at that particular time. Another survey in the United States found that They produced 43% of the songs played on the radio around that time. The Neptunes produced Snoop Dogg's single, Drop It Like It's Hot, in 2004, which also features the vocals of Pharrell. The Neptunes produced Gwen Stefani's single, Holla Bad Girl, which entered the Billboard Top 100 at number 82. in August of 2005 and topped the chart within six weeks of his release.

You gotta understand, a lot of kids were singing Let It Go. A few adults, but it was more kids. Everybody was singing Happy. Kids, adults, elderly people. I don't care if you was a Christian, an atheist, a Muslim. I don't care what it was, black, white. Everybody was singing Happy. Happy was just the song, man. Still, still, if it come on right now, it does nothing but... bring joy to your to your heart that is like the greatest song ever but that's just my my little rant on that but anyways uh afterwards when gq magazine asked pharrell how badly did he want to win that academy award he responded when they read the results my face was frozen wink wink but then i then i thought about it and i just decided to let it go anyways uh and you gotta love pharrell man at the uh awards that same year he wore a controversial outfit that a lot of people were tripping on which was kind of I don't know. It wasn't like he was butt naked. He wore a tuxedo with shorts. Like, who cares? You know, but people, they had an actual issue with that. In May of 2014, Pharrell received an Innovator Award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.

Google it. uh google it man i mean come on you shouldn't forget stuff like this uh i know it's seared into my brain unfortunately in 2015 a unanimous jury determined that blood line uh blood lines uh blurred lines which pharrell co-wrote and produced was an infringement on the 1977 marvin gaye song got to give it to you and this was a big thing around it i remember uh because i was like where are they getting this from and then when you listen to both of those songs yes you can hear the same kind of i guess you could say notes or beats or whatever it's not i don't think it was plagiarism per se or uh done on purpose but i mean all songs are recycled but yeah it was done It was determined that that song was infringing on the great Marvin Gaye song. And look, man, the song never, Blurred Lines never recovered from that lawsuit because it was sweeping the world by storm up to that point. And then that lawsuit happened and it just went kaput. The jury awarded the Marvin Gaye family $7.4 million in damages for the copyright infringement. infringement based on the profits generated by the song.

The Pharrell and Friends set that closed the festival's second day featured Pharrell in a lineup of guests such as Jay-Z, Diddy, Busta Rhymes, Usher, Snoop Dogg, Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Charlie Wilson, Tyler the Creator. yeah it was a it was a heck of a final day the festival's final day featured trey songs chris brown little duvall swv blackstreet yeah it was a that was a fest man pharrell produced five songs for the disney film the lion king the remake the quote-unquote live-action remake that came out in 2019 making his third contribution as composer wit on Zimmer In October of 2019, Pharrell stated that he regretted the 2013 song Blurred Lines, which received intense backlash for its appeal to apparent sexualizing that went on in the song, which that's all the song is. I don't know what the song is, but sexualized. But he has shown regret for that song. the pharrell life and career is the subject of the film that we're going to discuss in a couple of minutes piece by piece an animated documentary film which was released in 2024 and there was a film uh or at least there is a film was a film whatever the case may be a film loosely based on his life which is entitled golden and was filmed it actually was filmed and it was set to be released this year it was supposed to come out last month may the 9th of 2025 however the film was canceled by universal in february of 2025 prior to the film's end of entering post-production due to a disagreement with pharrell and other producers the film is permanently shelved and will not be offered to other studios which means that was just a waste of money that movie that movie will never see the light of day uh uh that feel um it's crazy it's kind of crazy because it had a cast bro it had a cast that movie was going uh uh calvin harris jr uh haley bailey uh divine joy rudolph uh michael tyree henry was in it janae mornay was in it missy elliott andre 3000 it was a stacked stack cast but they couldn't get along the studio in pharrell could not get along which is kind of weird because you know they did they did the uh piece by piece film so i don't understand what happened here but either way uh that is the little rundown history of uh pharrell's musical career his contribution to the genre I mean it ain't the genre because it spanned every genre every corner of the music industry whether it was hip-hop whether it was R&B whether it was pop whether is rock music whether it was I mean he went through all genres of music and has been successful in all genres of music the The dude is phenomenal. And I. am a huge super fan of pharrell and the neptunes you know i even go around i used to go around and aggravate my family with that neptune sound i used to just do it you know that was my thing yeah driving them crazy with it but i love pharrell's style you know i still love i'm talking like past tense like this is a uh uh in memoriam episode no the dude is still doing awesome work I'm just saying that, man, when he was really at the time, when he was just putting out bangers after bangers after bangers, it was like, my God. Almost every other song, I just read out the statistics a while ago, how... Like every third song on the radio was either a Pharrell song or a song that he wrote and or produced. He was that inferential in the industry and he still is. And some of those songs that he wrote and produced and performed are still celebrated. Rather, he put them out in early 2000s or just put them out a couple of years ago. They still are songs you can go back and listen to today. they don't seem dated and out of place or nothing like that is is just multi-generational man i love his music and his cousin it must be in the blood his cousin uh uh timbaland who i'm also a big fan of but pharrell he he did it just i mean globally bro i don't even know how to describe that young man and so with that being said since we ended on his doc documentary about his life let's review that film it is the 2024 biographical documentary comedy animated i should say piece by piece and it is a film that is co-written produced and directed by morgan neville and it was his debut and the film follows the life and career of american musician Pharrell Williams who stars in the film through the lens of Lego animation or brick film however you want to describe it and this is a unique way to tell this story and I think it was the right way to tell it and I only felt that way after I watched it because when they uh showed the trailers or they talked about the production how they were gonna release this film i'm like why are we getting a lego film about pharrell you know it just didn't make sense to me i was i was like man if you're gonna do a film just do the film you know a little documentary that's fine because i'm a documentary guy so i i love documentaries and just a standard documentary would have been suffice for me but okay you want to add this element to it all right but when you watch the movie and put it all in context yeah it makes sense because the way this guy sees music he sees music you know and you can only display that through some form of animation or special effects and so they they settled on this animation style this lego style and it fit the tone of the movie and it fits the tone of the storytelling that we get from pharrell I really enjoyed the movie. If you're a Pharrell fan, if you love his music, you love him as a person, this is a great way to kind of celebrate him. The film features the voice talents of, and I say voice talents, but they're just playing themselves. And that is Gwen Stefani, Kendrick Lamar, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg. They're all in this film. uh voicing their selves as these lego characters and honestly i had to watch this movie twice because when i went into it i just thought it was going to be a movie i didn't know this was a documentary you know because i'm expecting a lego movie to be honest with you i wasn't expecting a you know true storytelling documentary style lego film man so my first approach to it my first viewing of it. I didn't really get into it. You know, I was kind of confused by it because I thought it was something else. And so when I rewatched it about a week ago in preparation for this show, I really enjoyed it more because I knew what it was. And I'm saying all this because I don't think this was marketed right. I don't think it was told to the audiences that, what type of movie this is you know it was kind of sold as a lego movie and not sold as a documentary at least that's the that's what i got from it there are some of you out there who probably did see it as that or saw it promoted like that but i didn't and so when i when i went into it i was so confused there for it you know i was so confused but i i'm glad that cooler hairs prevailed that's why I never reviewed it if you go back to past episodes you can't find a piece by piece review because i i i was confused by it i didn't it wasn't that i hated it And it wasn't because I liked it. I was so like, okay. And that was that. And so I never reviewed it. And when I decided to talk about Pharrell for this episode and dedication to Black Music Month, I said, okay, I'm going to go back and watch piece by piece and view it through better eyes or wiser eyes, you should say. And I enjoyed it even more. uh the animation style is what it is is is lego style if you watch the lego movie the the lego batman movie and all of those lego movies i mean pick one there's a hundred of them um it's the same style same animation um is entertaining in that sense uh the vibrant colors are just beautiful i love the colors i love the color palette of this uh film you know it It's appealing to youngsters and oldsters alike. You know, it's not just a kiddie film. It's a really fun film to watch. My only drawback to the movie is the fact that if you're not a fan of Pharrell, if you're not a fan of this music genre that he is embedded in, the movie's not going to appeal to you. It's not going to touch you. You know, the hopes is that you... watch it and want to be a part of that you know what i'm saying want to watch you know start listening to that music and uh uh start looking into his life and looking into all the stuff that he's a part of but to be honest you you know a lot of people not because people are stuck in their ways and they're stubborn and they're not gonna uh uh jump on board the pharrell train but if you are a fan of Pharrell if you're a fan of this this genre of music whether it's hip-hop whether it's R&B or pop music or whatever the case may be this is a really fun exciting entertaining movie because you get some behind the scenes of how Pharrell came to produce this or write this and how his upbringing brought him to this point in his life and kind of shaped his music how uh stevie wonders uh listening to stevie wonder when he was younger influenced him so much to the point to where is he you know where he is right now and you got you know you look at somebody like a like a stevie wonder who who sees music yeah stevie Wonder is of course blind but you know the way he is musically inclined. It's like he sees music visually. And it's the same thing with Pharrell. And this was a great showcase to show that. You really couldn't do it in a live action form without using visual effects and all that good stuff. So doing it in an animated Lego style form was kind of genius in a way. My only... my pushback a little bit uh aside from if you're not a fan of uh pharrell is the fact that it is a documentary and i know a lot of people aren't documentary people um so if you're not a documentary type person this is not going to be the film for you but if you like to learn more about a person's motivations and what what makes them tick and you know uh what what's their process of coming up with this music or whatever form of art that they're associated with um yeah you you won't be appealed by it but this is truly a film designed for fans of pharrell williams piece by piece which came out in 2024 gets a letter grade of a b minus yes it's a very well-made film and i thought it was entertaining uh adding some comedy elements to it and you know some fantastical elements to it aside from it being a straightforward documentary type film it still have some entertaining elements as well but yes everybody it is black music month june of 2025 and today of course this month of course uh the kb radio network has chosen pharrell williams as their showcase artist for this month in celebration of the occasion.
