New Compilation to Prove N.E.R.D is Cool

November 15, 2010 By Mike Duquette 1 Comment

The new N.E.R.D album, Nothing, only just came out two weeks ago, but that's not stopping a new compilation due from the group early next year.

Of course, there's a pretty simple reason for it: Nothing and its predecessor, Seeing Sounds (2008), were released on Universal's Interscope label. Meanwhile, the first two LPs by the band - comprised of superproducers Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo (better known as The Neptunes, the duo behind Wreckx-N-Effect's "Rump Shaker," Jay-Z's "I Just Wanna Love U (Give It to Me)" and Snoop Dogg's "Drop It Like It's Hot") with vocalist Shay Haley - were released on EMI's Virgin Records. Those two discs will form the bulk of The Best of N.E.R.D, along with some B-sides and hard-to-find remixes.

The Best of N.E.R.D comes out January 11. Check the track list after the jump.

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.
