ON KEY WITH RYAN

The early 2000s gave birth to one of the most influential production duos in music history: The Neptunes. Hailing from Virginia Beach, Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo crafted a signature sound that was both futuristic and deeply rooted in funk. Their unique production style made them the go-to hitmakers for a wide range of artists, from hip-hop titans like Jay-Z to modern stars like SZA.
