- Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo are back, collaborating as The Neptunes on a more permanent basis and putting in studio time with the likes of Lil Uzi Vert and Lil Nas X. Genius News traced The Neptunes’ era-defining career from grade school band to the studio with artists like Clipse and JAY-Z as well as the formation of N.E.R.D and their impact on current artists like A$AP Rocky and superfan Tyler, The Creator.
The production duo’s latest releases include SZA’s “Hit Different” and Pharrell’s “Entrepreneur” with JAY-Z. In January, the production duo was selected to join the Songwriters Hall of Fame’s 2020 class. They also have two song credits on Megan Thee Stallion’s 'Suga' EP that dropped in March.

by 2003 they had produced 43% of songs played on the radio. absolute geniuses.
I learned that from hip hop evolution, maybe you know that from actually living during that time..
Wild lol 43% there was no escaping them I love them though 💕💕💕💕
@@niceasf7038 nope unfortunately i actually learned that from the same show i was born in 2001 lmao
@@punkbabyaser oh ok😅
This stat has been blowing up recently they also did the same in Britain but only 20% on the radio still crazy
Neptunes, Timbaland and Kanye shaped the sound of the 2000s. Legends.
That was the top 3 by Billboard
And Storch too 👍🏽
@@jayluis189 he was fourth on the billboard list
Dont forget dre
And just blaze
The Neptunes changed the game. Incredible Producers.
When the FBI is saying this you know it’s true
ruclips.net/video/GVERSSDsWKs/видео.html
Understatement
Hi again
Even the FBI says so
How tf did they not talk about Hollaback Girl... that beat still go brazy!!!
Facts
To this day. But there is a short clip from Hollaback girl in opener to this video.
Lunch tables were not safe when that song released
@@R4NDOMUS3RNAME lunch tables weren't safe Hollaback Girl by Gwen Stefani? WTF school did u go to?
@@rustino660 right more like Grinding
GOATS GOATS GOATS
Mai young goat
Yeezur
Sums it up nicely
Seriously
Baaeeeeeeee
They made like the most iconic beats in music history, and that's FACTS
What beat??
That's a HUGE statement lololol!
ruclips.net/video/NPZv0VdSq70/видео.html KaMillion verified
big ol fact facts
Name five real quick
I have literally sat down with people and explained how legendary this duo is after they say they only know "Happy" or "Get Lucky." I'm happy this video exist lol. Some of my all time favorite music that heavily shaped the landscape today
It happens the same to me, but I just see it like an opportunity to blow someone else's mind
@@Peeriikooify Oh yeah, same! I don't do it in a condescending way or anything. I honestly just get really excited to share haha
I'm pretty young, so I had no clue about this side of Pharell, let alone this guy chad who if i walked by in public i woulda NEVER in my life know who he was. It's insane, like I never knew about neptunes and all the songs they've written and produced and the artists that they allowed to go big in the industry, my respect for pharrell has extremely sky rocketed after watching this man, once again i'm young, so i didn't grow up seeing who was producing what, but before this vid, 9/10 i would give metro boomin the label of GOAT in terms of producers, but wow, Neptunes are 10000/10 the greatest producers of all time
@@mariobravo1265 That's what's so cool about videos like this! It's a quick and easy way to share info and now you have a whole new world of sounds and songs you can explore and share with others. I'm glad you're open minded to music and stuff that came before your time and you're willing to give it a listen
You could always hear the Neptunes/N.E.R.D influence in Tyler’s music all the way from Bastard to Igor
a p e s h i t shocked me
Wolf is where I hear it the most tbh
Ikr I hear the Neptune's influence in flower boy sometimes
@@threeholePUNCHify PRE-Bastard too. like beattapes when he was going by Ace were the most heavy
-chase agree . i thought about that after i said it lol
Chad Hugo the most relevant out the way person ever.
I don't think he wants the shine
Being born in the early 2000s I’ve always knew who The Neptunes/NERD/Pharrell were. But it wasn’t until my time in quarantine that I was able to TRULY dive into them. I’ve been watching interviews and documentaries all week so this is perfect timing!😊
You did the right thing.... they are living legends
How do you compare their sound to this era?
Nah deadass tho same 2002 baby 🙋🏽♂️
I was born in 1999 and I’ve been hearing them since I was a child, honestly one of my favorites
@KB Not their ONLY best work. Their first 3 albums were gold. They produced Mariah Carey's song "Say Somethin" which is 1 of my fave beats by them. They definitely were the next generation after Timbaland & Magoo, who also mentored them
The Neptunes are out of this world. The stack of production hits is ridiculous. They should do a VERZUZ against either Timbaland & Missy Elliott or against Trackmasters...true or correct?
Timbaland already did one vs a Swizz. I want a Verzuz of Neptunes vs Kanye
@@user-qd6im2hp2e it's an unfair battle because The Neptunes are a duo
my shit slap no cap

The Neptunes are the kings of bridges. Just plain facts
Kings of EVERYTHING. Their production is unmatched
@@balmain-i3e i agree with that too
Chad was the mastermind behind the bridges, but I see your point... 💯
Hit the 3 way bridge was dope
@@TheNoirAlien lol Hit the Freeway by Toni Braxton
I’m surprised they’re talking about the Neptunes instead of Pharrell. You know everybody will always leave out Chad Hugo in the conversation.
That's kinda by design on their part. Chad Hugo is fairly introverted and likes being behind the scenes
Everybody does not
Let's Get Blown is their most underrated track!
Ooooh I need to add that one and Beautiful to my list of favorites.
Maybe in rap
Yooo i love let's get blown, beautiful and that girl, personal favorites
My favorite song personally.
YESSIR! 😎 🖖🏾 😂
I knew that hit different was my shit for a reason lol.
facts! that caught me off guard
I just said the same!
It has that classic Pharrell repeat in the beginning!! Just like "milkshake" and numerous others
Correction for the video: The Neptunes actually started working with Justin Timberlake before he went solo. They produced “Girlfriend” for N’Sync.
Also, they are one of the only producers to do almost every genre out. Check out “By Your Side” remix for Sade, “Don’t be Light” Remix for AIR, and “Sympathy for the Devil” Remix for The Rolling Stones. They’ve done a ton of music for international artists too like Australia’s Kylie Minogue and UK’s Ed Sheeran. Their remix of Garbage’s “Androgyny” is legendary too.
They were talking about JT as a solo artist
@@Artistjm Yeah I know they produced Girlfriend featuring Nelly but they just skipped that part for some reason. But Pharrell said countless times that Jay Z introduced him to JT. Also once they made Girlfriend, that’s when Pharrell suggested to JT that he should go solo.
@@user-qd6im2hp2e You’re right. Thank you for pointing that out. I’ll edit my original reply to you.
You know your music man not too many people are up on that Sade remix. Also that Beenie Man song with Mya remix was hot as hell
Chad is the greatest Filipino-American music producer of all time. Also, Happy Filipino-American History Month!
And damn this video makes me feel nostalgic haha. Classic after classic from Chad and Pharrell
If the Neptunes came out today. His Filipino/Asian following wouldve been crazy big. Was ahead of his time
People don’t even understand Tyler is such a great in the game from studying the OG GOAT Pharrell !
Touch by Omarion one of the greatest beats ever
Very underrated loop 💯💯
That beat is amazing
The neptunes are my favorite producers of all time. They are too incredible and are simply the GOATS of modern music. The chord progressions are always so unique and their drums are out of this world
Man those first two Kelis albums got some of the BEST fucking Neptunes beats!! I still listen to those joints almost every day.
Still need a NERD trucker's hat.
FACTS
Yessur 🖖🏾
To this day!
@@sk8brdkee My mans copped both of them too lol. Ahhh those were the good old days....
MEEE TOOOO
They're gifted. Easily my favourite producers and I'm not even "frontin'".
I absolutely love hip-hop. There's nothing like hearing a beat, and it instantly gives you chills. There's nothing like it.
Don't forget "Philly's Most Wanted"!! That album was dope also.
Who made the album?
@@Cc-sr1zr The Neptune's produced it. It's a group from Philadelphia back in the early 2000's. Look em up.
Classic Album
Please don’t mind is my jam
@@missgigip that's my jam also. The whole album actually.
N.E.R.D's album "In Search Of" is a absolute classic timeless no fillers listen from start to finish and i still do to this day there beats are all a madness .. Bless up . ✌📿💯
Almelda by Solange is easily one of the best Neptunes instrumentals
Was looking for you bruv. You hear Momma I Hit a Lick by 2 Chainz and Kendrick? Waaaaaaaay underrated too
Crush by Solange is also great
Yeah fr
Momma I hit a lick is a Pharrell produced track Chad had nothing to do with that one
somehow I went all this time not knowing that was a Neptunes piece
*Pharrell Williams*
*Chad Hugo*
*LEGENDS*
_End.._
I just got a Clipse Got Caught Dealin’ promo CD prod by the Neptunes from ‘98 a couple weeks ago, one of my most treasured music pieces
I agree. The funeral is legendary!
One of my childhood wishes were for The Neptunes to collaborate with OutKast 😢 don’t know if I’ll ever get that in this lifetime....
Outkast's productions was always different from the mainstream, no disrespect to neptunes but dont think they would nt be able to make a song that outkast would really want.. their styles where alot different.
have you heard “Rollinem 7’s “ by N*E*R*D feat. Andre 3000?
@@TennyWhyte love that song
@@sami_got_vibes strongly disagree. Neptunes can go street hustlin like on Kendrick lamar or clipse or can go poppy like milkshake or happy or alternative like N.E.R.D. so I'm sure Pharrell and Chad could have created something custom for them too.
People underrate the Neptunes greatness so much, they’re incredibly influential
We used to bang on the lockers doin the "Grindin" beat in high school!!! The Neptunes run was so legendary!!!!
Best production duo ever they shook up the whole game impact and legacy can’t be questioned...thanks for the video!
The neptunes are my hero’s , these guys inspired me to make beats, their beats gave me chills , I still play southern hospitality and pass the courvoisier
They gave us one of the best Beenie man songs. RESPECT
Sim -Simmer!!
Virginia legends never got their credit or real shine on the impact they had on the world really love these guys people like leemoeflvme really carrying what they started in virginia
Over here usually don't get the credit it deserves 😑
I gotta disagree on that One Pharrell Tim Breezy & Missy definitely get there flowers but I will say overall VA is a Underrated Market
Music and sports Virginia is underrated especially the 757 where 90% of va talent is!
@@Stonecoldalston can’t forget about Devante Swing
@@palimo3653 no Devant and there's probably no Tim And Missy and that whole camp so definitely can't forget him
my favorite producers ever
Long overdue recognition/induction. They def. had a cultural and sonic impact unlike most. The one track not mentioned in this wonderful video about their impact and recent induction is ‘What Happened to that Boy?’ That beat just slap so hard! What they were able to do with that pigeon “rolling r” sound is genius! They truly are icons and and music geniuses. Major props to them! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The greatest to ever do it. Along side timberland
And Kanye
@@user-qd6im2hp2e and Metro fr
@@markusschafer9572 Metro is a young legend
@@markusschafer9572 Metro a young legend fr, but he ain't on the level of these artists skillfully and artistically. But he is dope and amazing just a bit of a "punch under the weight" producer
nolinagirlasia.linK
The Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis of Hip Hop
Perfectly put... I agree. 💯
I wouldnt even be singing or producing if it wasn’t for the The Neptune’s... it doesn’t make sense how amazing they are.
Same here brother
Stuff like this really have me missing the early 00s
The Neptunes are great music producers
They hold PURE CONCENTRATED SAUCE I’ve been saying this for years now finally a documentary Tyler’s been keeping the flame alive with shuttle hints of there style
Run to the Sun is one of my favorite songs EVER
Best production duo period! During the early 2000’s their catalogue was impressive and not to mention the artists they were working with! Looking forward to hearing their new material.
*Genius never fails🔥✌🏾*
The 🐐s . one of my faves of theirs is Girls Dem Sugar highly underrated imo
I came here to say #757 !!!!! We the best lol Can’t touch us. We got Timbaland, Missy, Nottz, The Clipse... and of course who your watching THE NEPTUNES. I’m 36 y/o and they came out while I was in middle school and high school. It was so incredible to live in that time. Really goosebump vibes back then. Nobody will ever feel what we felt back then again. 🖖🏼 #STARTRAK #757
Timbaland and N.E.R.D. are still my all-time favorite producers and still inspire me!!!
0:37 surprised no one noticed the ringtone for the phone…
The Neptunes are absolutely brilliant.
I've been a Neptunes/NERD stan ever since I heard the intro on Clones & the entire In Search Of album. They're amazing!
the amount of songs i dont even know the neptunes produced together or individually is prolly endless
My favorite Neptunes produced album was New Sacred Cow by Kenna. I think that was more of Chad's project but that album spoke to me. I grew up in Va Beach from the same generation as those guys, I think in high school I was a freshman when they were seniors. We all went to different high schools but the music was one thing that brought every kid together no matter what hood they were from. Exciting times, exciting times...
The beats they made for Kelis tho! ✨
Grindin beat was legendary. Everybody used make that beat on a lunchtable. Superthug was crazy, also Kelis “Get along wit you”. They were always my favorite producers.
Don’t forget about Twista and Pharrell :
1. Lavish life
2. When I get home (A.I.O.U) ft jamie foxx
@ALLMONEYIN ♥️♥️🎧🎶
@ALLMONEYIN bro I feel you !!! I remember getting that twista album just to hear that track ! I first heard it on shade 45 radio Sirius! I’ll never forget that time!
@ALLMONEYIN lavish life slams in my car. I play it still like it just came out.
lavish is my mf jam omg
ON GOD
That Mase song was their first major hit but their first placement was r&b song called Use Your Heart by SWV. That song is timeless
I love these impact videos genius should do more of them
Can we get an extended version of this video. Love it!
The album in search of is still to this day just damn amazing. There will never be anything like it again
Pharrell and Chad are truly Legends. I think P is the greatest producer ever. At the very least he’s the best of my time. I absolutely adore their sound.
"Late 90s" bro they defined the early 90s sounds too being lowkey hit makers on the New Jack Swing sound
- Damn... y'all went in on the description from "grade school band to the studio with artists like Clipse and Jay-Z..." but the title is from "Tyler, The Creator to Jay-Z". Give the title more of their deserved notoriety length.
Their signature sound was wild. My personal favorite phase of them was the mid 2000s; 05-06 to be exact. Had a darker tone compared to their colorful earlier and present stuff. Like that first Pharrell solo single? Got it like that? I think it’s called; was so crazy!! And all of the hell hath no fury album. Masterpiece!
The Neptunes are literally the reason why tyler the creator, varnish, etc shit load of artist have the similar sound :) i love it sm
She wants to move
Maybe
Run to The Sun
sooner or later
Breakout best song
They influence my sound forever. Love you forever chad and pharrell
Damn I didn't know the produced "Looking at Me" by Mase. Legends!
Love this guys. Inspirational. Trying to imagine them in the position I’m in out here in AZ, smh
this video pieced a lot of floating parts i had together for me, thank you
LL- Luv U Better is also a classic !!!!!! So is 702- I Still Love You
You know your music man
_I still love youuu Oh Oh Oh-Woah-Oh I still love you..._ that joint still kicks
Yall left out some great Luda and Missy elliot collabs but this video was still great.
Learning Chad was responsible for that keyboard part in the beat of drop it is amazing cause they both are responsible for the success equally.
Super Thug beat was insane. 💯 Also the Triton was responsible for a lot of their sounds. That shit was a beast !
Word when that shit came on in the club OMG
@@palimo3653 word ! 🤯
isn't it crazy how Teddy Riley's move to VA beach was so random yet led to all of this
It wasn’t random, everybody and their mother from ny to dc was runnin round Virginia Beach back in the 80s and 90s
@@757CitiesReppa for what reason
@@_Maxten As far as Black people it was the place to be before Atlanta or Miami. Proximity, family ties, Norfolk State/Hampton (girls) etc. Some of the same reasons Pharrell holds the SITW during College Beach Weekend
Been a fan of these dudes ever since i bought “In Search Of...” way back in the spring of 02’ and see them grow into becoming megastar producers is an amazing sight to see #nerd #theneptunes
neptune’s vs kanye in a versus battle would go crazy
CRAZY !!!!!

@@_blonded don’t mind that
I was JUST listening to a looped version for the ending of Bobby James..magical.
“SZA’s ‘comeback’ track”
Idk if I woulda used THAT word, but I get it.
Being born in the early 2000s I’ve always knew who The Neptunes/NERD/Pharrell were. But it wasn’t until my time in quarantine that I was able to TRULY dive into them. I’ve been watching interviews and documentaries all week so this is perfect timing!😊
Yes SZA COMEBACK PRODUCE BY NEPTUNES
Jay Z will never die as juice wrld said himself legends never die
These two have literally paved the way while creating a movement. Absolute legends and I'm forever grateful to have grown up during the times they were evolving in music❤
The Neptunes are my favorite producers when it comes to music.
One of my favorites would be “Get Along With You” on Kelis first album. The string chords & drums on that!! 🙏🏾 Still to this day the Neptunes are my top favorite producers!🙏🏾🙏🏾
blaze of glory still hard to this day
Thank you Chad & P!!!
I’m thinking I love hit different because I like SZA but it’s because of my unwavering love for the Neptunes.
Neptunes were in the studio with Rihanna before Corona also
Neptune’s are so important to this generation. They Gave us diverse alternative music. Which made us to listen music in a different way. 🖖🏾🖖🏾🖖🏾🖖🏾
Yesssssssssssssssssss I’ve been waiting for this
Don't sleep on that Fam-lay rock n roll joint 💯
So much respect. Revolutionary Production duo
- my fave is probably SZA or Clipse.
So glad to see Pusha T still at it
so happy these two are finally getting the recognition they deserve
Love them‼️ Legendary producers
Glad they getting some recognision. They should be on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Back in 2002 on mtv2 all these guys were on fire literally every song was produced by the Neptunes such legendary duo
Gonna add them to my DMV meets UK playlist soon enough part 3.
You guys forgot Omarion - Touch lol
My favorite producers of all time. Love these guys.
It’s even more crazy that Frontin was originally made for Prince
An album cut called Steal Away on the No More Drama album from Mary J Blidge is probably my favorite. The funky beat, smooth chords and Mary’s Hook just kills it
