<p>In 2013, <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/pharrell" rel="noopener">Pharrell</a> released the <em>Despicable Me 2 </em>single “Happy” and the song became a worldwide smash. You would expect the song to invoke some impassioned thoughts, but to rising rappers <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/destroy-lonely" rel="noopener">Destroy Lonely</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/ken-carson" rel="noopener">Ken Carson</a>, “Happy” is one of the worst songs of all time.</p>
<p>During their appearance on Complex’s <em><a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/music/destroy-lonely-ken-carson-debate-the-best-and-worst-things-ever-goat-talk" rel="noopener">GOAT Talk</a> </em>this week, Destroy Lonely and Ken Carson—who are both signees to <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/playboi-carti" rel="noopener">Playboi Carti</a>’s Opium label—waxed poetic about their mutual dislike of the inescapable hit.</p>
<p>“The worst song? Pharrell is a great person [but] I hate ‘Happy,’” Carson said.</p>
<p>Lonely agreed, noting that his grandmother was fond of the single.</p>
<p>“I’m happy? Bro, when I was younger when I got up in the morning when I was staying with Grandma, that’s her song to play in the morning,” he said. “I fucking hate that shit. Every time I play it I’m ready to punch somebody in the face.”</p>
<p>Carson agreed with this assessment of the song, despite the fact that his grandmother didn’t play it each and every morning.</p>
<p>“Pharrell, you’re great,” he said. “You got great songs but every artist got a bad song.”</p>
<p>Despite Carson and Lonely’s dislike of the song, “Happy” peaked at No. 1 in 24 countries (including the US) and was the best-selling song of 2014.</p>

<p>Destroy Lonely, whose <em>If Looks Could Kill</em> was launched last Friday, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/music/a/eric-skelton/destroy-lonely-interview-if-looks-could-kill" rel="noopener">recently linked up with </a>Eric Skelton for a must-read interview.

<p>You shouldn’t be surprised to see a sand castle on the beach. But if it’s 30-feet high and made up of 366 reimaginations of Malle-Haute trunks, it may turn some heads. This is what Louis Vuitton erected in Virginia Beach this weekend for Pharrell’s Something in the Water festival.</p>
<p>Pharrell was named men’s artistic director at Louis Vuitton in February, hence the sand castle, and although his first collection doesn’t debut until June, we are already seeing glimpses of the direction he may be taking the brand during his tenure. Louis Vuitton also showed support of its newest men’s creative director by releasing a limited edition collection of Virginia-influenced T-shirts, a hoodie, and a Damier print denim jacket priced between $860 and $3,050. Each featured an LV logo placed in the state’s travel slogan “Virginia is for Lovers.” Although the French fashion house is tied to the creator of this festival, seeing Louis Vuitton with such a notable presence in Virginia Beach was still unexpected. </p>
<p>“It was important to them. They pushed. They wanted to be here,” Pharrell told Complex while sitting outside of his trailer in the artist compound situated a few blocks away from the hubbub of the festival. His outfit consisted of a brown LV monogram leather Perfecto jacket layered with a white T-shirt, black leather pants, and a pair of chunky white LV Trainer Snow Boots. Various gold chains hung from his neck and teardrop-shaped sunglasses from his yet-to-be-released collaboration with Tiffany and Co. covered his eyes. “When I was on that mixtape, the <em>In My Mind: The Prequel</em>, and I said, ‘I just renegotiated my contract with LV.’ That was like ‘05 or ‘06. I had already met Marc [Jacobs] in like ‘03 and I think the sunglasses came out in ‘04. I’ve been working with them for like 20 years, bro. I think they understand that they are a part of my history and I’m a part of theirs.”</p>
<p>Pharrell spent the weekend adding to that history with the aforementioned Perfecto jacket he’s been wearing for the past couple weeks along with a new white and lime green moto jacket covered in crystallized logos, which he wore on stage Saturday night for his headlining set. Both are custom pieces officially designed by Pharrell, but they aren’t part of his debut collection. While Pharrell kept his details on the monogram jacket he was donning during our interview brief, he did give a small explanation to the “Pupil King” phrase spelled out in gold studs across the back of the jacket. </p>
<p>“I will forever be a student. I will always be a pupil. Pupil king,” says Pharrell. </p>
<p>Other highlights from the three-day weekend included an exclusive launch of Pharrell’s new Adidas Samba collab, standout sets from legends like Kid Cudi and Lil Wayne, and even surprise appearances from acts like Diddy and Chris Brown, who joined Pharrell on stage. Unfortunately, harsh weather hindered the three-day festival. Friday’s start time was pushed back from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. to combat heavy rain and they canceled Sunday’s shows entirely. Despite the setbacks, Pharrell celebrated the weekend and remained optimistic about next year’s Something in the Water. </p>
<p>“Even during this tornado watch and lightning storm right now as I type, we are the best. Thank you for giving the folks that travel here that energy and that love that only we can give,” Pharrell wrote on Instagram following Sunday’s cancellation. “Next year, more acts, more merch, more food…just more!”</p>
<p>On Saturday afternoon, we had a chance to sit down with Pharrell amid his busy weekend and ask him about that bespoke Louis Vuitton leather jacket he can’t seem to stop wearing, his new Adidas project, booking Something in the Water’s diverse lineup, and more. </p>

<p>Since first collaborating in 2014, the rapper-and-producer duo has joined forces on a number of tracks, like “La Danse,” “YeYe,” “Not At All,” “Buckwild,” and “Egyptian Luvr” from Rejjie Snow’s 2018 album <em>Dear Annie</em>. As their chemistry grew stronger and stronger over the years, the two have been bombarded with calls for a full-length joint project. And after a nearly decade-long wait, fans finally got their wish.</p>
<p>Aminé and Kaytranada have officially teamed up as KAYTRAMINÉ, a collaborative endeavor that will see the release of a self-titled album next month. The two kick off the new era with the release of the project’s first single, “4Eva,” an infectious dance track featuring <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/pharrell" rel="noopener">Pharrell Williams</a>. They teased the song and its accompanying visual via Instagram this week, giving fans a little taste of what they’ve been cooking.</p>
<p>You can stream the song now via Spotify below. <em>KAYTRAMINÉ</em> is scheduled to drop May 12.</p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="https://complex.com/tag/kim-kardashian" rel="noopener">Kim Kardashian</a>’s watch game is only getting stronger.</p>
<p>The media mogul has spent the past decade building a solid collection of high-end timepieces, which included designs by Audemars Piguet, Cartier, and Rolex. It’s an impressive range, no doubt; however, Kardashian took it to a whole new level by securing an iced-out piece previously owned by <a target="_blank" href="https://complex.com/tag/pharrell" rel="noopener">Pharrell</a>.</p>
<p>The mother of four was recently spotted filming a segment of <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/james-corden" rel="noopener">James Corden</a>’s <em>Carpool Karaoke</em>. As pointed out by watch specialist Hodinkee, Kardashin arrived on set rocking a pair of ripped jeans, a plain gray tank top, and a Casio G-Shock × Bape DW-6900—a one-of-a-kind watch designed by Jacob &amp; Co.</p>
<p>The piece was auctioned off last year through <a target="_blank" href="https://www.joopiter.com/products/casio-g-shock-bape-dw-6900-white-gold-and-diamond-unauthorized" rel="noopener">Pharrell’s online platform JOOPITER</a>. According to its listing, the watch features 14 karat white gold with white, cognac, yellow, and black diamonds.</p>
<p>Per the product note:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#013;</p>
<p>It is a perfectly balanced exercise in form vs. function. In addition to the flooded bezel and case, the back is also frosted with a diamond studded caricature of Pharrell, borrowed from the In My Mind album cover artwork. This watch reflects the illustrious, playful and creative partnership of Pharrell and Nigo, as executed through the meticulous craftsmanship of Jacob &amp; Co.</p>
<p>&#013;
</p></blockquote>
<p>The watch ultimately sold for $73,750. </p>
<p>A number of pieces in the auction also <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/style/drake-wore-almost-3-million-worth-of-pharrell-old-jewelry-jumbotron-shit-poppin-video" rel="noopener">appeared in Drake’s  video for “Jumbotron Shit Poppin.”</a></p>
<p>Pharrell’s JOOPITER recently announced <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/style/pharrell-joopiter-lorraine-schwartz-auction" rel="noopener"><em>A Journey Through Gems</em></a>—its first-ever auction dedicated to high jewelry. The event is a collaborative effort with bespoke jewelry designer Lorraine Schwartz, and will kick off on March 17.</p>
<p>“I was lucky enough to meet Pharrell over 20 years ago, and we’ve built an incredible friendship through a mutual appreciation for the most exquisite and unique gems in the world,” Schwartz said in a statement.</p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/travis-scott" rel="noopener">Travis Scott</a>’s <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/albums" rel="noopener"><em>Utopia</em></a> era has entered <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/new-music" rel="noopener">a new chapter</a>.</p>
<p>At this weekend’s kickoff of Scott’s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/music/travs-scott-road-to-utopia-las-vegas-residency" rel="noopener">Road to Utopia</a> experience at Resorts World Las Vegas’ Zouk Nightclub, a number of unreleased collaborations were previewed for those in attendance. And while there’s been no formal confirmation that any of these songs will wind up on the final tracklist of Scott’s long-teased new album, which is also expected to carry the <em>Utopia</em> title, that seems like a fairly safe bet.</p>
<p>Among the songs previewed was a Scott and <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/kid-cudi" rel="noopener">Kid Cudi</a> pairing tentatively titled “Out of My Mind,” which—as fans will note—was first teased two years ago amid “The Scotts” chatter.</p>
<p>Fans in the crowd for the residency-launching show were also treated with previews of unreleased Scott songs featuring appearances by <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/lil-uzi-vert" rel="noopener">Lil Uzi Vert</a>, <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/future" rel="noopener">Future</a>, and <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/pharrell" rel="noopener">Pharrell</a>. Coinciding with the latter was a photo shared to Scott’s IG showing the two artists in a black-and-white setting.</p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/music/pharrell-interview-something-in-the-water-2022-interview" rel="noopener">Something in the Water</a> attendees were given something uniquely memorable this weekend. Amid Saturday’s lineup of <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/pharrell" rel="noopener">Pharrell</a>’s D.C.-set festival, <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/clipse" rel="noopener">Clipse</a> reunited in front of thousands of eager fans, marking the duo of <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/pusha-t" rel="noopener">Pusha-T</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/no-malice" rel="noopener">No Malice</a>’s first performance together in more than a decade.</p>
<p>“You guys, for the first time in so long,” Pharrell said after bringing the two to the stage for “Mr. Me Too” during his <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/music/pharrell-announces-special-guests-something-in-the-water-festival-clipse-to-be-livestreamed" rel="noopener">Pharrell &amp; Phriends</a> segment, at which point Push interjected to note it’s been “10 years.” It has indeed been at least that long, as <a target="_blank" href="https://rockthebells.com/articles/pusha-t-confirms-first-clipse-performance-since-2010/" rel="noopener">recent reports</a> in advance of the reunion set pointed out that Push and Malice last performed as Clipse in 2010.</p>
<p>As seen in the clip below, Pharrell then asked the audience if they were “ready to turn it all the way up,” spurring applause before the three went into the 2002 <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/birdman" rel="noopener">Birdman</a> and Clipse classic “What Happened to That Boy?”</p>
<p>See more footage, including of the moment “Grindin’” was whipped out, below.</p>
<section class="suitcase-ad" />
<p>Clipse’s performance was announced mere days ago alongside a slate of additional special guests for the festival, including Justin Timberlake and SZA. In a recent <em>Washington Post</em> profile, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/music/2022/06/17/pusha-t-interview-something-in-the-water/" rel="noopener">it was revealed</a> that Pusha-T had gotten “a special request” from Pharrell just over a week before the fest about asking his brother, No Malice, to hit the stage for a Clipse reunion set.</p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/pharrell" rel="noopener">Pharrell</a>’s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/style/pharrell-humanrace-expands-lineup-launch-new-body-bars" rel="noopener">Humanrace</a> is expanding once again, this time with the impending launch of a <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/skincare" rel="noopener">new category</a> just in time for the summer season.</p>
<p>Thursday, the skincare-focused brand—co-founded by Pharrell in 2020—unveiled details for its new line of suncare products. Launching next month, the inaugural batch of suncare products will include the Ozone Face Protection Daily Moisturizer and the Ozone Body Protection Cream, both of which boast SPF 30 protection and are comprised of mineral-based formulations.</p>
<p>In a statement, Pharrell pointed to the importance of including suncare in one’s daily routine.</p>
<p>“Our Earth’s Ozone layer naturally protects us from harmful UV radiation from the sun, but we still need to protect ourselves daily from the UV rays that get through,” he said. “We believe there is room under the sun for everyone, and we all need to be wearing sunscreen daily.”</p>
<p>For co-founder and brand president Rachel Muscat, the new suncare line offered an opportunity to take inspiration from her upbringing in Australia.</p>
<p>“I grew up in Australia where sunscreen is a daily part of our routine,” Muscat said. “We want to provide that same education and instill a positive daily practice of wearing SPF daily to our customer.”</p>
<p>Get a closer look at the first batch of suncare products below. The suncare-centered expansion of the Humanrace brand, per a press release, is more than two years in the making. Both the Ozone Face Protection Daily Moisturizer and Ozone Body Protection Cream will both <a target="_blank" href="https://www.humanrace.com/" rel="noopener">be available</a> starting July 14.</p>

<p>There are more ways to find out about new music than ever. The traditional methods—radio, magazines, billboards, record stores, word of mouth—are still here, and they’ve been joined by new innovations like TikTok and playlists. Meanwhile, technology has also made it easier to make and distribute music than ever, and over 60,000 songs are uploaded to Spotify every day. As a result, it’s a little daunting to be a music fan right now, but anyone with enough patience to go digging will be rewarded with a vast amount of incredible new songs, especially if they look in the right places. </p>
<p>That’s where we come in. As we reach the halfway point of 2022, the Complex Music staff came together to dig through all of the year’s new music and compile a list of our favorite songs so far. These are the songs we’ve found ourselves coming back to over and over, and they represent the best that the music world has to offer—from underground artists to A-list superstars. <strong>These are Complex’s picks for the 50 best songs of 2022 (so far).</strong></p>

<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/tag/pharrell" rel="noopener">Pharrell Williams</a>’ educational non-profit YELLOW is <a target="_blank" href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/pharrell-williams-non-profit-yellow-and-cisco-unite-to-help-reimagine-education-301568214.html" rel="noopener">joining forces with Cisco</a> to provide educational tools and technologies to marginalized students looking to start a future in STEM or the arts.</p>
<p>Created by Pharrell, YELLOWHAB is a “microschool” located in the Grammy-award-winning musician’s hometown of Norfolk, Virginia. The school, which features smaller classrooms and more hands-on workshops, aims to provide students with an immersive learning experience based on skill rather than age. The partnership with Cisco will provide the school with unique technologies that can help students learn the skills needed to succeed at jobs in STEM or culture and in turn give back to their community.</p>
<p>“This partnership between YELLOW and Cisco will take the education of our students at YELLOWHAB to the next level,” Pharrell said in a statement. “I look forward to our youth experiencing education through Cisco’s state of the art technology which will continuously expand their lens of possibility through which they see themselves, their community, and their futures.”</p>
<p>The Cisco technology provided will include data centers and <u><a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3567131-1&amp;h=1482250857&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cisco.com%2Fc%2Fen%2Fus%2Fsolutions%2Fenterprise-networks%2Fdna-spaces%2Findex.html&amp;a=DNA+Spaces">DNA Spaces</a> </u>as well as <u><a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3567131-1&amp;h=2412019416&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.webex.com%2Fcollaboration-suite.html&amp;a=The+Webex+Suite">The Webex Suite</a></u>, <u><a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3567131-1&amp;h=3995865373&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cisco.com%2Fsite%2Fus%2Fen%2Fproducts%2Fsecurity%2Fsecurex-platform%2Findex.html&amp;a=Secure+X">Secure X</a></u>, <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3567131-1&amp;h=173645246&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cisco.com%2Fc%2Fen%2Fus%2Fsolutions%2Fenterprise-networks%2F802-11ax-solution%2Findex.html&amp;a=WiFi-6">WiFi-6</a> and <u><a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3567131-1&amp;h=3157858468&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fmeraki.cisco.com%2Findustries%2Fprimary-education%2F&amp;a=Meraki">Meraki</a>.</u>  Together these new tools will help kids stay innovating and inspired.</p>
<p>“Cisco’s purpose is to power an inclusive future for all, which includes empowering future generations and making a positive impact on communities around the world,” Cisco Chair and CEO Chuck Robbins said in a statement. “It’s critical that we work together with local partners to ensure that today’s youth learn and realize their potential in a digital age. Everyone needs access to experiential learning, and we’re proud to work with Pharrell and YELLOW to reach historically marginalized communities and close the digital divide.” </p>
<section class="suitcase-ad" />
<p>Pharrell has spoken extensively about his passion for getting kids involved in the tech space. In an interview with <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/pharrell-low-income-students-tech-jobs-1367502/" rel="noopener"><em>Rolling Stone</em>,</a> the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/music/pharrell-announces-special-guests-something-in-the-water-festival-clipse-to-be-livestreamed" rel="noopener">Something in the Water</a> founder spoke extensively about the layout of his YELLOWHAB microschool, which is tuition-free and caters to third graders all the way up to sixth graders.</p>
<p>“Let’s get rid of the old way of looking at children,” Williams said. “Our kids are not in education only to get off in the summer because we need them to go work in the factories. That’s not the world that we live in. The paradigm needs to shift. The public schools don’t have all the answers and the private schools don’t either.”</p>
<p>The Neptunes co-founder added that his non-profit aims to level the playing field for minority communities.</p>
<section class="suitcase-ad" />
<p>“We have the opportunity to even those odds with this system,” he said. “There might be a Sheryl Sandberg or a female astronaut in the classroom. Who knows?&#8230;Man, if I was a fourth grader and someone from Cisco came to my school to talk to me about it, I might not be a musician. I might have been a mathematician.”</p>

<p>Pusha-T has put himself amongst good company in his personal ranking, but he says coke rap still gets a bad reputation. “I don’t know when it became cool for people to slight the cornerstone of rap,” he says, dipping one hand out of the water bowl and giving it to the manicurist for clipping. </p>
<p>“It’s funny, because I come under a lot of scrutiny for the term ‘coke rap’,” he continues. “Either they’re knocking it or they’re finding ways to cheapen it. Like, I drop an album, I go through a cycle and by the time the album cycle is done, then it’s back to, ‘Oh, it’s only this, it’s only that.’ And then I watch the same people who shoot down the genre when I’m at it, they’ll sit back. Then, in my absence, it turns into, ‘Oh man, this is great lyricism.’” </p>
<p>To Pusha-T, coke rap is a “lazy way of describing” the style, since it’s essentially no different from street rap. For the sake of time, he’ll embrace it, but he says his new album will bring some regality to the name. </p>
<p>Push has grown accustomed to being called a coke rapper, but he drew the line when Pharrell called him a “mixtape rapper.” The story that Push first shared on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CarUBKZo0cy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Instagram</a> took place shortly after he recorded “Hear Me Clearly.” When Pharrell heard an early cut of the track, he said, “It’s cool, but I don’t want you to be a mixtape rapper for the rest of your life.” Push’s ego was bruised. </p>
<p>“He was being snide and nasty,” Push says now, scrunching his face up as if he smelled something foul. To some, “mixtape rapper” has a negative connotation, but Pusha has a different opinion. “He knows that my heart is mixtape rap. I only like mixtape verses actually,” he explains. “I’ve known him my whole life, and there was a time in which we both had the same taste in mixtape verses. And that’s a time that I try to get him to revisit a lot, in dealing with me. I particularly believe that our success and our greatness is when we’re in those pockets.”</p>
