As the GQ Designer of the Year, Pharrell Williams is naturally confident and cool, reflecting the amazing energy he brings to this recognition. It's hard to argue against him, considering the incredible year he's having. His work as the creative director for Louis Vuitton men's fashion has been impressive, and he is likely to keep making strides in this role. While he deserves praise for his accomplishments, some recent comments from him are stirring conversation. During a Q&A about his Joopiter auction platform and the custom jewelry he sold, the interviewer mentioned that Drake bought some of the pieces. When asked how he felt about that, Pharrell responded gracefully, saying he appreciates Drake as a music fan who values history, and that the jewelry is part of that legacy. He didn't mind Drake being the buyer, which led to a follow-up question from the GQ writer about Drake's lyrics on melting down jewelry. Pharrell simply replied, "It didn’t." When pressed further, he maintained, "No." This response could be seen as a mic drop moment.
This situation ties back to Drake's intense lines directed at Pusha T and Pharrell on Travis Scott's song "MELTDOWN." In those lyrics, he dismisses the heritage associated with the jewelry he bought. It seems that the relationship between Pharrell and Drake might not recover, but Pharrell doesn't appear to be affected by it at all. Keep it locked to 103.5 The Beat for more!
