Fly Or Die - N.E.R.D. [The Neptunes]
Fly Or Die Image
  • Summary: N.E.R.D., the rock-oriented trio of Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo (who also make up the in-demand hip-hop production team The Neptunes) and Shay, return with a highly-anticipated second album. Unlike their previous effort, 'Fly' finds Chad & Pharrell handling the instrumentation themselves.

    Fly Or Die has more in common with 10cc and XTC than it does Common.... Prog-pop album of the year. [Jun 2004, p.91]
  2. 60
    A strange brew. [May 2004, p.128]
  3. It's the sound of someone crashing and burning in a heap of misguided, grandiose intentions.
