BrehBut it's weird. He was quoted as saying he used the pentatonic structure (which I know nothing about), but then when showed some notes he says:
"I'm not comfortable"
That would be like me saying "I wrote this movie, but I wanted to take the 4 act structure and do it in reverse". The someone asks "Tell me what the 4 act structure is?" and my answer is:
"I'm not comfortable"
Plus, wasn't he in band with Chad in school? Or they went to a school for gifted musicians or something. That's where they met, right?
I don't doubt his talents, and he probably is a genius, but you'd think 20+ years in the business, and throwing around shyt like "pentatonic structure" would allow you to identify one note on a piece of paper, no?
Just because someone knows what they're doing musically, it doesn't mean they KNOW it !
You know what I mean ?
Have you ever met a person who can speak very well but when it comes time to write, their grammar is bad or difficult to understand ?
They might not be able to read sheet music or tell you what "modulation" is or know how to construct extended chords etc. but when they get in front of an instrument, they speak fluently.
I don't want to assume Pharrel is that sorta musician because he did say he could read sheet
music but just in case he is, that's a valid explanation. IMO.
He could actually play multiple instruments.Did Marvin Gaye write instrumentals? I find is funny his fam is suing. Marv just did dope and sang![]()
He didn't just "do dope and sang", dude started off as a session drummer at Motown.
