N.E.R.D. - Seeing Sounds - album cover

N.E.R.D.

N.E.R.D. made an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” performing their hit single “Everybody Nose” on June 10, 2008. N.E.R.D.’s third album is “Seeing Sounds” is in stores now.

While writing their third album, N.E.R.D. watched a Discovery Channel show about synesthesia, a neurological disorder that causes people to experience sounds as colors or as objects in their minds. Superproducers the Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo) and their rapping buddy Shay Haley were inspired to create music you could envision as a live show. Does that creative concept work? Hard to say, but the results are experimental and expansive: Specked with ostentatiously weird grooves, “Spaz” and the speedy, jazzy single “Everyone Nose” are destined to go down as some of 2008’s most interesting hip-hop cuts.
