The Playlist...The Neptunes Pt. 1

Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams

Finally!  The personal playlist that we've always wanted to do.  "The Neptunes" , which is the production duo of Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams, have made an immerse impact on the musical biography of my life.  I was fortunate to grow up in their come-up, when it was reported that at one time this production group comprised 75% of the music being played over the air!    They have work with so many artists from all genres of music and have so many cuts.  So because of that we are going to make a special two-part edition of The Playlist.  Today, I released some of "The Neptunes" slept-on classics which are dear to my heart.  Some u may have heard, others u may not have.  But, these cuts always bring a smile and memory to my mind.  So here we are, with some videos attached as usual...The Neptunes Pt. 1...slept on classics.  Enjoy:

- SWV - "Use Your Heart"
- Pharrell ft. Jay-Z - "Frontin'"
- T.I. - "Freak Though" (Love this song!  So true...)
- Snoop Dogg ft. Charlie Wilson - "Perfect" (Smoooth track from Dizzle)
- Prince ft. Q-Tip & Pharrell - "Greatest Romance Ever Sold" (Remix) (A banger!)
- Madonna ft. Kayne West and Pharrell - "Beat Goes On" (The words and beat are relentlessly legendary!)
- Sean Garrett - "Patron" (Classic...Miami's favorite drink of '09 too!)
- Gwen Stefani - "Orange County Girl" (Us and Cali girls again...!)
- LL Cool J ft. Jamie Foxx - "Best Dress" (Exclusive for the romantic grown folks.)
- Jay-Z ft. Usher & Pharrell - "Anything" (My mind visualizes on this hit!)
- Nelly ft. Pharrell - "Let It Go Lil Mama" (I got to do my '08 shimmy off of this!  Shoulda been #!))
- Babyface - "Stressed Out" (My favorite producers combining...oh man!!)
- Common - "Inhale"
- Twista - "Lavish" (Straight Chill)
- Faith Evans ft. Missy & Freeway- "Burnin' Up" (Classic 2001)
- Usher - "Wifey" ('Where are you??')
- Sade - "By Your Side" (Remix) (Pure Beauty)

These songs have...just great songs.  Just writing these down, bring back so many memories.  The music industry has changed so much.  Glad to share some of the genius work of The Neptunes.  Part II coming soon.  Those are the released heavy hitters.  Right now, it's all about the slept-on ones which we may all one day and be like, "you remember...".
