Seeing Sounds.... Album Review...

On June 10th 2008, N.E.R.D. dropped their third album "Seeing Sounds" Pharrell Williams , Chad Hugo and Shae Haley decided to end their 3 year hiatus and it was time to kill the music game. When it was time to drop single these songs turned into hits "Everybody Nose (All Girls Standing Line for the Bathroom)" and "Spaz" the song which feature on the Microsoft Zune commercial.

From girls, crazy people, love and haters, N.E.R.D. take us on a journey of crazy drum loops, simple guitar chord and random sax riffs to magnify characters in these songs that we can identify with.

Front to back this album has you laughing, moving and frequently askin, "what did he just say?"

Being a huge fan of music, a hip hop fanatic and rock/alternative head I can definitely say the over saturation and commercialization in the industry has you fiendin for something that is neither of these. "So much sound like dirt today/Turn on the radio and it make you thirst away." I couldnt put it better than Pharrell and N.E.R.D as they defend their position, and declare their legitimacy in this dog eat dog industry,with the bonus track "Laser Gun."
