Oh, Manchester, So Much To Answer For

Mmmm... the can't stop, won't stop Neptunes (not to be confused with N.E.R.D.) have their own record coming out this summer, Star Trak Presents Clones (info here - including info on ODB already in the studio!). Its first single is by Pharrell featuring Jay-Z, and it's a tasty slab of 'Tunes soul (with a hellaciously jazz standup bassline) titled "Frontin'." No, it ain't rap - it's Pharrell workin' that pretty falsetto of his, with Jigga dropping in for an assist on the bridge. And it's gorgeous. In a fair world, this'll be a massive summer smash. Which means it likely won't. Don't miss out.
