Pharrell Williams Fronts WSJ Magazine

FROM WSJ:

 As dusk begins to paint a warm summer day in pinks and oranges, Pharrell Williams arrives at a studio in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley whose atmosphere seems entirely consistent with the mystical calm of a man who has lately seemed to float into public appearances on a lotus flower. In a courtyard behind a pair of tall, ivy-framed wooden doors, a mossy fountain babbles and blue jacaranda blossoms pool on the flagstones. Just inside the studio itself, beneath a plaque certifying the multiplatinum status of Rihanna's Good Girl Gone Bad, a celadon Buddha presides over a couple of music technicians watching a football game and eating M&Ms. One of them uses his knees to squeeze a pillow embroidered with the words "You Have Free Will." Down the hall, perfectly insulated, Snoop Dogg toys with rhythms for a new track.

Kanye West's "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" Named The Best Album of The Decade so Far

Kanye West has a lot of fans around the globe and at Pitchfork. The website released its "The Best 100 Albums of The Decade so far" list and Kanye West has 2 albums in the top 10, "Yeezus" at number 8 and "My beautiful dark twisted fantasy" at number one. Here is why Pitchfork picked the latter.

While his first two masterworks presented a complex and complete portrait of a man, you likely bought The College Dropout and Late Registration on CD and could resolve the contradictions and flaws by cutting out the skits and skipping the last couple of tracks. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy impresses with its impenetrable wholeness. Befitting a record that owes its creation to a mythical, Dream-Team recording process on a Hawaiian island, there’s one way in and no guaranteed means of escape: unusually lengthy songs impervious to fast-forwarding are filled with guitar solos, extended outros, surprise guest verses, and French horns. It's post-Twitter, pre-Vine and Snapchat; the decade's information overload with a vinyl-era attention span, forcing you to acknowledge and appreciate every stumble on the way to an emotional and musical breakthrough.
