Tetris Kelly:
For Black History Month, Billboard is celebrating by highlighting some of the greatest black executives in music and today we celebrate Pharrell.
With four number one hits on the Billboard Hot 100 and five number one hits on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, Pharrell has been a force in the music industry for decades. He has also created magic behind the scenes as a top producer working with music industry powerhouses like Beyonce, Jay Z and Snoop Dogg.
She won her first Grammy in 2003 and hasn't looked back, winning 13 Grammy Awards since then.
Farrel:
You know, when something gets very, very, very big eventually it has to, if it doesn't explode, it has to implode, something has to happen. And when it does, something will rise from the ashes.
Tetris Kelly:
He has had tremendous success as the leader of NERD and later as a solo artist releasing huge hits such as “Happy”, “Blurred Lines” (with Robin Thicke and T.I.) and “Get Lucky” (with Daft Punk).
Pharrell founded Black Ambition in 2020, which funds and advises Black and Hispanic entrepreneurs.
Today we highlight and honor the talented Pharrell.
