You Are Wu-Tang | One-Shot #22

In 2016, Pharrell Williams dropped by NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music to speak to a class. There, he met a young Maggie Rogers and sampled her song "Alaska." His reaction, captured on camera, went viral. This is a relatively known moment on the internet.

What's not known is just how the words Pharrell shared and the element he noticed from Maggie's work can be applied to the work we do.

In this shorter, monologue episode, we take a closer look.
