    From the orchestral string intro of ‘Marilyn Monroe’ to the funk-rock jam session that ends ‘It Girl’, G I R L is 45 minutes of warmed-over retro-pop pastiche, cribbing from Michael Jackson and Chic, from disco and yacht rock.

    The real embarrassment is that more than the work of his peers or his idols, mostly Pharrell’s just ripping off himself to seriously diminished returns.

    All of this is borderline insulting to its target audience, myself included. For a moment in “Brand New,” Williams lets us see his hand, and it subtly reveals how incredibly marketed and capital-centric this album is.

I've to agree with a review that said with the Neptunes, it was Chad Hugo that added the bite to the group. Did Pharrell really revive disco-influence music or was it the Marvin Gaye song that was bitten off heavily for Blurred Lines? Also, I've to say it was Daft Punk's creativity on Random Access Memories that explored the sound further. The lyrics on this album are banal and creepy at the same time.
