The alternative rock band N.E.R.D. returns with their 4th studio album, Nothing. This album uses different themes, all ranging from 'feel good' summer music to songs about war and peace. The energetic Party People, starts off the album with a hype groove. The track is immediately followed the sensual track, Hypnotize U, in which Pharrel provides smooth vocals over an even smoother beat. One of my favorites has to be the uplifting song, Victory, because of its message. Another one of my favorites is Life As A Fish. It provided an interesting point of view about war from the mind of a fish. it also reminds me of how they use to make the seventies anti-war songs. The lead single of the album, Hot N Fun, is a great party track. The album ends well with the song,The Man, which speaks the ins and outs of getting with women and making them feel good. Throughout the album, you get thrown back and forth into musical bliss where N.E.R.D provides a song for any moment. There is no set tone for this album, as the songs are so randomly placed. Nothing featured several collaborations like T.I and Nelly Furtado. Overall this is a great album for those who love alternative rock/hip hop, Check out Nothing today!
