Ya'll use the term "classic" too freely. In My Mind was not a classic. IMO it was a horrible album. And I'm a Neptunes fan.
He had a huge year last year but mainly off of features on other songs. Blurred Lines was the biggest song of the summer but that was co written by Robin Thicke. Get Lucky was a huge record but that was composed by Daft Punk and had the funk brought by the legendary Nile Rodgers, Pharrell just wrote and sang lyrics. What I'm trying to get at is last years "successful" year of Pharrell was off the talent of others, he didn't have a huge solo record. Same with his success as a producer, he was huge when he partnered with Chad, but he fell off when he went solo. He hasn't shown that he can put out a solo project successfully, like for example a Kanye.
And LOLLLLL at the dude saying that Pharrell is a Marvin Gaye without the vocals. Marvin Gaye writing and composing >>>>>>>>> anything this dude has done.

Did you ignore the word "personal" before "classic"?

I personally hate that Happy song. I think it went #1 in the netherlands or something?He didn't have a big solo record? I believe Happy was a number 1 record. He produced those other tracks like 'Blurred Lines' too don't forget.
Like I said earlier I am a Neptunes fan. Loved there stuff in the late 90's and into the early 2000's.

EDIT - I knew I recognized the screenname
Dude's been hating on Pharrell for years on NT
I'm convinced dude must have tossed your demo in the trash in front of you or something.

Blurred Lines was a HUGE record and pharrell DID produce it but it was a huge record not because of the production, but the purely off the rhythm and melody in the singing which Robin primarily wrote. The production is pretty bland, 3 to 4 note melody, no bridge, nothing groundbreaking on the production side, the song shot to #1 off the strength of the catchiness of Robin's vocals, NOT the production.
“I think I want to be dirty, girl”, Pharrell coos, over the sort of “Inside of Clouds” chords that Tyler, The Creator has beautified his career upon.
This could be a Neptunes produced Alicia Keys single from the mid 2000s.
The record opens with a flurry of strings - orchestrated by Pharrell's new BFF, the Oscar-winning film composer Hans Zimmer,
lol! When it comes to music especially urban music there is no theory. Its about what ever feels right.Some guy on a message board says Pharrell sucks at music theory.
