SOLE MUSIC: Pharrell x adidas Jellyfish
Quick Facts
- Pharrell's adidas Jellyfish are finally dropping
- Pharrell also makes music, if you weren't previously aware
- In our series Sole Music, we put together sneaker-inspired playlists
With adidas finally dropping the oft-teased and much-hyped Jellyfish by longtime partner Pharrell Williams, we figured there was no better time to do a deep dive (pun = intended) into the musical works of the singer-producer-designer-skateboarder.
Though most of his time the last couple of years has been dedicated to his new job at the helm of Louis Vuitton in Paris, Pharrell has still had time to make arguably the most talked about album and shoe of the year. Between producing Clipse's comeback and designing adidas' most talked about sneaker since another musician-slash-fashion mogul was leading the way at The Three Stripes, it's been a big year for Skateboard P.
Whether or not you were lucky enough to snag one of the orange, green, or grey variants of the Jellyfish that have dropped yet, you can still enjoy its creator's biggest body of work: his vast discography.
The Sole Retriever team came together to pick our favorite songs by Pharrell himself, his band N.E.R.D, or other artists who tapped P or The Neptunes for production. From Britney to Birdman and Timberlake to the Teriyaki Boyz, here are the best songs to listen to while you wait for your pair of Jellyfish to swim your way.
