Description
Extracted from Sistic website:
Superproducer duo Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo a.k.a. The Neptunes has been one of the most revolutionary production teamups in modern music since Quincy Jones and Rod Tempterton put down shuffle-beats and doo-wops behind a young singer named Michael Jackson. With their digital musical palette and vivid imaginations, they've taken their hip-hop foundation and loosened the boundaries of pop as music-makers and producers, generating hit records in almost machine-gun-like succession – whether in rap (Jay-Z, Busta Rhymes), R&B (Usher, Babyface), pop (Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake) or rock (No Doubt).
But N.E.R.D is not the Neptunes.
N.E.R.D is the offspring of the Neptunes id, the Neptunes’ rock-and-roll side project, a fly-or-die, thrash-around, do-as-you-will, set-your-soul-on-fire alter-ego that subscribes to no rules, adheres to no agenda.
N.E.R.D. is Pharrell, Shay and Chad*, a trio whose chemistry allows the uninhibited exploration of the sounds, emotions and impulses of self and society, of identity and belonging, of life. Accompanied by live backing band.
*Chad Hugo is not always part of N.E.R.D.’s touring band and may not be part of this Singaporean concert.
