If this society was based on meritocracy and not racism, Pharrell wouldn’t sound so fukking stupid. It’s like these guys become so detached from reality, they think that they’re immune from White supremacy.
Sad, because I got every N*E*R*D album since 2002. I didn’t know Pharell was this mentally stunted. Those Smokey the bear hats must’ve brainwashed him.
He does sound very ignorant but it's largely because he hasn't experienced institutional barriers preventing him from success. Pharrell has never worked in a corporate environment and his skillset is unique and embraced by the power structure because they could generate 100x off of his creations. On the surface sports and entertainment are the most meritocratic fields since they're heavily talent driven.
