ha that is a dope one, I love that album. This "Drop It Like It's Hot" remix is crazy, I don't think I've ever heard this O_O... "Lavish" is great too

oh yeah i liked that track
trying to remember the last Neptunes track i really liked, maybe Clipse "I'm Good"? you know what was amazingly awful was the score for Despicable Me, almost ruined the movie for me.

a bunch of the songs on tyler, the creator's album wolf start with the pharrell four count. "jamba" is prob the one that sounds most like it could be a hell hath no fury kind of track.
