Dropping In on Oscar
WEDNESDAY, FEB. 15 In Miami, it's usually warm, but I'm mostly indoors. I started off my day wearing a Billionaire Boys Club white crew neck T-shirt, blue denim jeans and SpongeBob Square-Pants toe socks. I love SpongeBob; I just think he's funny. Squidward is my favorite, though. If he was a human, I would hang out with him. I had a photo shoot scheduled with my good friend...

Still Dancing To Sly's Music
From the late 1960's to the mid 70's, Sly and the Family Stone combined rock, R & B, psychedelia and funk to become one of the most popular bands of the time. With a lineup that featured blacks and whites and men and women, it broke social barriers as well. Last week, a two-CD set of many of the group's biggest hits was released. Here, Pharrell Williams, one half of the production duo the Neptunes and a member of the rock group N.E.R.D., reflects on the band and its leader, Sly Stone, now 59. Now, I know I'm not the only one who drank from Sly's well, since I hear his influence and genius in Michael, Stevie and Prince. It flows through Donny Hathaway and Donald Fagen. It's updated by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I've even been told that certain critics see Sly in my own work, in the bass line, rhythm and syncopation for songs my group, N.E.R.D., recorded like ''Run to the Sun,'' although it humbles me to think that people would group us together.

Pharrell : a fish doesn't know it's wet
\"Following Rizzoli's best-selling \"Pharrell: Places and Spaces I've Been,\" this volume documents the continuing adventures in art and design of one of the most influential figures in contemporary music and popular culture. Lavishly illustrated with 250 photographs and illustrations, this book features Pharrell Williams's prolific and ever-expanding body of work in a graphic language all his own. Straddling art, design, and hip-hop, Pharrell's creative output is without peer or precedent. By playing off different disciplines--music, fashion, and contemporary art--Pharrell has redefined the role of the contemporary artist, blazing a trail for other musicians and cultural figures. Expanding on themes covered in \"Places and Spaces I've Been,\" this book gathers a new group of collaborators. Engaging Pharrell in conversation, talents as diverse as Karl Lagerfeld and Takashi Murakami position Pharrell's work within contemporary visual and material culture. The worldwide success of the song \"Happy\" to his soundtrack and production credit for the Oscar-nominated film Hidden Figures bookend a volume devoted to Pharrell's mastery of artistic collaboration. Featuring work with artists as diverse as JR, Alex Katz, Mr., and Daniel Arsham, the book highlights recent projects and designs for Chanel, Moncler, Moynat, and Adidas. But at the heart is the visual language that Pharrell has built around his Ice Cream/Billionaire Boys Club clothing line, which integrates streetwear into the design of apparel, accessories, limited-edition toys, and skate graphics\"--Provided by publisher.
