After sitting down with Hot 97’s crew of Ebro, Peter Rosenberg and Laura Stylez, Pharrell headed over to The Breakfast Club for a morning-show interview. Speaking with Charlamagne and The Breakfast Club cast, the veteran hitmaker opened up about political issues facing the country, music and more. Most notably, Skateboard P touched on “what’s wrong with the music business” and his soundtrack work for Hidden Figures. As always, Pharrell shares the sort of wisdom only an industry veteran of his caliber can provide.
