Pharrell Williams and co. will be releasing Nothing, their fourth full-length album, this summer, with the single “Hot-N-Fun” leading things off. In support of “Hot-N-Fun,” the group’s label asked director Fro Rojas to comeout with a series of videos of how attractive hipsters would consider hot and fun. Our favorite is the dancer video — and you’ll see why when you watch it — but the other ones are good, too.Pharrell Williams and co. will be releasing Nothing, their fourth full-length album,... more

New York auctioneers prepare to put a collection of 'hip hop's crown jewels' under the hammer.
Jewelery in the auction comes from rap stars ranging from Missy Elliott and Kanye West to Tupac Shakur and Notorious BIG.
The auction gives hip hop the kind of cultural weight previously accorded to icons such as Andy Warhol and the Beatles.
In all, 70 of pieces are being auctioned by Phillips de Pury, which has set itself up as the auction house for young collectors.
They are expected to raise an estimated $3million (£1.6million).
The sale was scheduled for October 1 but has drawn so much interest that it has had to be postponed until March 5 next year so late-coming pieces can be included.
Lots will include:
• A crown ring with 10 carats of cabochon rubies and pavé diamonds said to have been worn by Tupac when he was shot dead in Las Vegas in 1996 - inscribed in honor of his relationship with music doyen Quincy Jones's daughter (listed at $10,000 to $20,000)
• Missy Elliot's all-moving mini-turntable of black diamonds and gold ($8,000 to $12,000)
• A diamond and white gold Gucci link necklace belonging to Pharrell Williams (up to $250,000)
• A diamond and platinum bracelet owned by Sean 'Diddy' Combs.
• Lil Jon's 12lb Crunk Ain't Dead necklace, featuring 3,756 diamonds.
Kanye West's diamond-studded black Jesus pendant may also go under the hammer.
Other candidates for inclusion are a gold ring embossed with the face of Egypt's Queen Nefertiti; a diamond-encrusted cassette and headphone pendants owned by rapper Biz Markie; a large gold and stainless steel Rolex with diamond bezel owned by Notorious BIG.
The auction is set to show how bling displaced Nike shoes and baseball caps as the visual signature of rap and hip hop.
The outrageous ostentation of the pieces is the whole point, according to experts.
Owners have donated the items to raise money for the Smithsonian Institution's new hip hop archive and for Rush Community Affairs, a charity founded by hip hop entrepreneur Russell Simmons.

With a new album [click to read], a successful tour, and flourishing fashion presence, producer Pharrell Williams is gettin' his grown man on and starting with a clean slate...quite literally.
The N.E.R.D frontman and fashion trend setter revealed this week to Brittish Vogue that his tattoos no longer fit his lifestyle and so he is trying a revolutionary new tattoo removal procedure, which involves applying replicated skin over old body art.
"It's basically like getting a skin graft, but you're not taking skin from your ass or your legs. These guys actually grow the skin for you," he explained. "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."
