“Everyone Nose” is not only a killer N.E.R.D. party song produced by the Neptunes (@nerdarmy), but also a Bboy Smash drawing from so many sources, you’ll have to start by taking in the finished product (and a #dope and controversial video):
Pharrell Williams (@pharrell), Shay (@sheldonhaley), and Chad Hugo (@chadhugo), formally known as N.E.R.D., came back strong with the Seeing Sounds album, their third, and this track led the way with a motley sound of Punk, Funk, Hip-hop, Rock, and who knows what else, all following the infectious refrain of “All the girls standing in the line for the bathroom”.
And what the hell are they talking about?
Everyone nose.
From Wikipedia:
The beat was inspired by a rare video clip shown to N.E.R.D by Missy Elliott. Williams “lost his mind, the way these people were dancing and these crazy beats.” The song begins with an acoustic bass patch from a Roland 5080 and continues with drums from the Triton Extreme. Coleman explained that the beat was inspired by the “Baltimore B-More sound.” He went on to say that “Timbaland is scratching in there, too. The big Latin section is again, all Pharrell—all the same instruments; he just flipped the programming. That is the Latin club explosion part, mostly programmed beats with some buckets.”[3]
