Pharrell’s N*E*R*D Chain

How do you promote your album and simultaneously pay homage to the homies? You ice them out and wear them around your neck.

Back when RIM was running the phone stuff, Blackberry was a must have device. So how does Pharrell out do your $100 phone? Encase it in 18 karat gold. Simple.

Pharrell’s KAWS Rolls Royce

KAWS and Pharrell have gone together like peanut butter and jelly. So on the set of N*E*R*D*’s video for “Hot-N-Fun,” Friends With You painted this vintage Rolls Royce for the gang.

Pharrell’s $75,000 crocodile skin Hermes hoodie.

Don’t tell PETA, but this crocodile skin hoodie made by Hermes is one of the dopest things in terms of its simplicity. This kind of makes me want to tuck my Champion hoodie away somewhere.

Pharrell Removes Tattoos

What happens when you outgrow most of your tattoo covered body and want to get rid of them? Laser treatment? Hell no, you just get entirely new skin. Presto chango, it was like they were never there.

“There’s an institute called the Wake Forest Institute in North Carolina for Regenerative Skin Treatment. It’s basically like getting a skin graft, but you’re not taking skin from you a** or legs – these guys actually grow the skin for you,” he said on a blog post.

“First you have to give them a sample of your skin, which they then replicate. Once that’s been done, they sew it on – and it’s seamless.”

Chillin’ with the President

In between making dope beats, running BBC/Ice Cream, and a host of other fly Shyte, Pharrell just so happens to go chop it up with the leader of the free world. Just because.

Pharrell’s Diamond Rubik’s Cube Keychain

When Pharrell has some time to kill, like all of us, he messes around with a Rubik’s cube. Only difference is, his is made of color coordinating diamonds. See, he’s a simple guy just like all of us.

Running Billionaire Boys Club

Throughout the 2000s, Pharrell’s Billionaire Boys Club dominated streetwear in popularity. Worn by everyone from Jay-Z, Kanye West, to LeBron James, BBC is one of the most iconic streetwear companies ever launched.

Making chicks famous

You have to be pretty doggone famous to date a girl and they become famous. Former flame, Vashtie Kola, has since gone on to be a successful video director and become the first woman to have her own Air Jordan sneaker. As for Alesha Dixon, she’s been a highly successful UK act for years and is a judge on Britain’s Got Talent with Simon Cowell.

Pharrell’s House

Did we mention that Skateboard P really likes KAWS? Because he dipped most of his house in Family Guy-inspired murals with KAWS.

Pharrell’s Studio Yacht

You are in a dilemma. You are super-rich, and have a yacht…but you also have to work. What do you do? Bring your work to the yacht and build an off the hook studio in the yacht. It’s a floating studio!

Scoring The Oscars

Not sure if there is a bigger gig that a producer can grab than this. Who knew hip-hop would take it this far?
