Pharrell Williams Collaborates Lil Wayne
Two juggernauts of the industry get together and do what they should - rhyme about Alonzo Mourning.
“Weezie F baby and the F is for Phenomenal” may not make sense when looking at it on a computer screen, but listening to the newly released Yes makes the phrase sound so right. As ridiculous as Lil Wayne and the amount of mixtapes the rapper puts out is, it’s hard to pass on a recent recording with Pharrell.
Both artists kill it in their verses to a warbling synthy beat that only Pharrell’s hand could have touched. As the two insanely famous artists trade killer verse after killer verse, the song’s dopeness only crescendos and doesn’t fall victim to being all hook. If that doesn’t quirk your interest, there is even reference to Alonzo Mourning (you may remember him from NBA Jam) and Bruce Lee. What more could one want?
This track further proves how much Pharrell shines in collaborations with artists such as Clipse, Common, or, in this case, Lil Wayne. Pharrell helps aid in further forgetting 2006’s In My Mind, and hopefully we’ll hear some more from Pharrell and Lil Wayne in the near future. In the meantime put “Yes” on repeat, and remember the next time you trash talk someone explain to them that they, “Won’t see the morning like Alonzo.”
