Pharrell has announced on Twitter that his long awaited second studio album, G I R L, will be released March 3, 2014 under Black Lot Music and Columbia Records. The Despicable Me 2 track "Happy" serves as the lead single of the ten-song studio album. Pharrell's last album, In My Mind, came out eight years ago in 2006, although Pharrell confirmed he will be singing throughout G I R L.

Pharrell crying then boom it cuts to that awfully awkward/funny album cover I guess I'm looking forward to it. I've been digging his stuff as off late, with the Daft Punk collab and all. Feel like he's reinvented himself a bit.
Justin Timberlake and Daft Punk, two artists that are well received in this forum, are going to feature on Girl! Here's the official tracklist: 1. "Marilyn Monroe" 2. "Brand New" (featuring Justin Timberlake) 3. "Hunter" 4. "Gush" 5. "Happy" 6. "Come Get It" (featuring Miley Cyrus) 7. "Dust of Wind" (featuring Daft Punk) 8. "Lost Queen" 9. "Freq" 10. "I Know Who You Are" (featuring Alicia Keys) 11. "It Girl"

"G I R L" is being streamed on iTunes, if you're interested. Also, JT and Alicia Keys are the only credited duets. The others appear to only contribute add. vocals. PS "Freq" is a hidden track with JoJo (it's been a while) having additional vocals.

Assuming you guys watched the Come Get it Bae video, here's a better one. [video=youtube;pPZDBF0kei0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPZDBF0kei0[/video]
I'm SUPER STOKED for this, since it's not only my favorite song from the album, but it has a FANTASTIC (and unconventional) director: Edgar Wright. [video=youtube;Nvzy3IzhMwk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nvzy3IzhMwk[/video]

Edgar Wright's still got that visual spark to him. I love how it's well-shot. It's probably one of the prettiest videos I've seen. Also, sorry guys. [video=youtube;UfGMj10wOzg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfGMj10wOzg[/video]
