Former RR writer Jayson Young summed up the dilemma well in his 2002 review of their rap debut “In Search Of” when he said of Pharrell “If this boy was a battle MC, he would be eaten alive by absolutely any rapper you can think of.” Harsh, but true. Pharrell and his partner Chad Hugo have laced beats for many of the biggest hip-hop hit songs in the last ten years, but whenever The Neptunes tried to be the stars in the booth instead of on production the results were mixed at best. “All songs produced by: Pharrell Williams for The Neptunes.” One has to admit the self-proclaimed “Skateboard P” is a “live by the sword, die by the sword” kind of guy.
