N.O.R.E & Pharrell end the summer with tropical vibes on “Uno Más.”
N.O.R.E & Pharrell are no strangers to each other. They both have a long-standing track record with each other. Pharrell was the one behind N.O.R.E’s highly successful “I’m a G” and “SuperThug.” Today, they return with another hit “Uno Más.”
The song is the first released under N.O.R.E’s new deal with Nas’s Mass Appeal Records. It’s a big tune that aligns with a lot of Pharrell’s recent solo work. Less hardcore hip hop and much more fun-filled. It’s new light of N.O.R.E if you’re familiar with his older, much more thugged out catalog however, his charisma and personality still shine as they did in the past. It’s growth from the Queens rapper especially considering he’s no longer a youngin’ in the game but an older emcee with game to give to the youth.
It’s another joint that deserves some recognition in the history of Pharrell/N.O.R.E collaborations. It’s a fun tune that’s bound to have you reminiscing about the beach once September comes tomorrow. It would’ve been on every single playlist throughout the past season but it’s still a great way to close out the summer.
This is the first single we’ve heard from N.O.R.E since January. Then again, he’s also been preoccupied with other endeavors. Over recent times, N.O.R.E seems to have focused less on rapping and putting more emphasis on being a hip hop journalist with his podcast, Drink Champs. He’s also been a pretty notable hip hop historian throughout his recent interviews, always having some sort of untold story about the culture.
Pharrell has also had a busy summer. Along with the slew of guest appearances he’s done over this summer, he also recently released his collaboration tennis shoe with Adidas.
While this serves as his verse single with Mass Appeal, hopefully we get a new project from him very soon.
