Pharrell Williams

Pharrell Williams is an American singer and producer who has worked with Britney Spears, Jay Z and Snoop Dogg. The composition "Get Lucky", recorded with Daft Punk in 2013, brought Williams worldwide popularity and four Grammy Awards. The title track of the second album - "Happy" - for 10 weeks topped the Billboard Hot 100, and was also nominated for an Oscar. Throughout his career, none of the tracks of the active musician was considered a failure.

On April 5, 1973, in Virginia Beach, Virginia, Faroy Williams and his wife, teacher Carolyn, had a son named Farrell. After his birth, with a difference of a couple of years, Faroy, Kato, Solomon and David appeared in the family. From childhood, Farrell stood out from the crowd of his peers. Few people know, but during his school years the rapper was an exemplary student and for his thirst for knowledge he received the first number more than once.

In the 7th grade, parents sent their beloved child to a summer camp. There, an ambitious boy met Chad Hugo. The guys worked in the local orchestra: Farrell played keyboards, and Chad played saxophone. In high school, they founded the hip-hop quartet The Neptunes, inviting pals Hayley and Mike Etheridge. The group successfully performed in the school talent competition, which later led to the signing of the first contract with producer Teddy Riley, who played an important role in the musical careers of Michael Jackson, Usher and Bobby Brown.

The Neptunes almost never released their own singles, but they recorded many hits for already promoted artists. Their works were highly appreciated not only by colleagues in the stellar shop, but also by critics. The musicians have repeatedly become producers of the year in the categories of the Grammy Awards and Billboard Awards.

The debut single of the performer "Frontin", which later entered the track list of the first solo album, was presented to the listener in 2003. At the same time, the musician recorded the song "Beautiful" in a duet with Snoop Dogg and starred in the video for the song that won the love of the audience. In September 2004, Williams and Snoop Dogg released another hit, "Drop It Like It's Hot," which peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, and two months later topped the US charts. In 2009, the song was awarded the title of "Rap of the Decade".

In 2005, the artist presented the single "Can I Have It Like That" from his debut solo album "In My Mind", which was released in 2006. Later Williams collaborated with Madonna (starred in the video "Give It 2 ​​Me"), Beyoncé, Shakira, Miley Cyrus and Justin Timberlake. In July 2010, the singer's career entered a new stage: he collaborated with Hans Zimmer and recorded the soundtrack for the animated film Despicable Me with the Hollywood Symphony Orchestra and the music for the 84th Oscar ceremony.

In December 2012, the rapper signed with Columbia Records to release his own album, Girl. A disc dedicated to the fairer sex appeared on the shelves in March 2013. On March 31, 2014, the rapper became the new coach of the 7th season of the American show "The Voice". A year later, the future winner of the 8th season, Sawyer Fredericks, was in the production team. She chose Williams as her mentor and was right.

In the same year, the Chanel fashion house presented the full version of the promotional mini-film "Reincarnation", the release of which was timed to coincide with the show "Chanel Metiers d'Art". In a 7-minute video, famous model and actress Cara Delevingne teamed up with Pharrell to perform Williams' composition CC The World, written specifically for Chanel.

On June 30, 2015 the premiere of the single "Freedom", written specially for the Apple Music service, took place. Four days before the official release, Williams tweeted an excerpt of the song as a teaser. Later, the same fragment was used in the Apple Music promo video. The full version of the video was released on July 22nd. The video was directed by Paul Hunter. The video won a Grammy for Best Music Video.

In June 2017, a video of the creative quartet of Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams, DJ Calvin Harris and rapper Big Sean for the song "Feels" was published on the Web. In it, all four explored a heavenly place with an incendiary composition. Katie lounged in the grass in a yellow Gucci dress, Farrell sang on the boat, Calvin Harris played guitar as a rock musician from the 70s, and Big Sean sat royally on a throne surrounded by red macaws. The video was directed by Emile Nava. It is reliably known that the single will add to the tracklist of Calvin Harris's new album Funk Wav Bounces vol.1.

The first and only wife of a hip-hop artist is model Helen Lasichan. Before legalizing their relationship, the lovers met for 5 years. Even before the official marriage, the musician's chosen one gave him a son. Rocket was born in November 2008. According to Farrell, he came up with the name of the heir. The producer named the boy after Elton John's song "Rocket Man". Williams himself dedicated the song "Rocket's Main" to his son, which became the soundtrack to the cartoon "Despicable Me".

The couple got married in October 2013. The wedding took place in the Miami Botanical Garden, and the newlyweds threw a noisy party in honor of this event on a yacht called "Never Say Never". At the beginning of 2016, the singer's wife stopped appearing in public. To put an end to all kinds of rumors in the bud, the performer said that he and Helen are still together, but in the near future the spouse will refrain from attending noisy events. 

After such a vague explanation of the reasons for the absence of his wife, rumors spread about Lasichan's pregnancy. The suspicions were confirmed when a replenishment occurred in the Farrell family in January 2017. Helen gave her husband triplets. A Williams spokesman declined to talk about the names and genders of the babies, but confirmed the birth and added that the mother and children are healthy and very happy.

In June 2017, the animated film Despicable Me 3 was released on the big screens. Farrell recorded the single "Yellow Light" especially for the movie. In the same year, the rapper became the main character of the final mini-film, filmed as part of the advertising campaign for the new Chanel's Gabrielle bag. The 7-minute video was written by Chanel's creative director, legendary Karl Lagerfeld, and the video was directed by Antoine Carlier. 

Chanel and Pharrell Williams have a long friendship, and the music producer himself is the brand's ambassador. The popular 44-year-old performer has set a kind of record: he is the first man in the history of Chanel to take part in the filming of an advertising campaign. Previously, actress Kristen Stewart, model Caroline de Maigret and, of course, the famous designer's muse, Cara Delevingne, have appeared in mini-films dedicated to the release of Chanel's Gabrielle.

It should be noted that not only friendly relations are associated with the British model of the musician. In December 2014, they starred in the Chanel short film "Reincarnation", and in 2017 Farrell became the producer of the fashion model's debut video "I Feel Everything". The composition was the soundtrack for Luc Besson's film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, in which Kara played the main role along with Dane DeHaan. The single was released on July 20 (the day before the film's American premiere).

Despite the busy work schedule, the performer does not forget about the fans. On Instagram, Williams regularly uploads both concert photos and video clips from his vacation. Social media isn't the only resource that tells fans about the latest news from the musician's life. On various Internet portals and in print publications, materials related to the artist's creative biography are also often published.
