blatant appropriation of white culture

When did black guys start slam-dancing? This cracks me up. Plus it’s a song about standing in the line to the bathroom. Pharrell has also been producing some Hives songs (one in that ad for Sears appliances). He’s different. I like him.

N.E.R.D. from Letterman a couple of nights ago.

  1. Actually, the song’s about all the young Hollywood girls doing tons of coke. I read that somewhere and it makes sense…”All the girls waiting in line for the bathroom!” “A hundred dollar bills…achoo! achoo!”

    eeeeeeeee I love N.E.R.D.!
