What the artist means
On this powerful track celebrating black excellence Pharrell recruits Hova in a performance for the ages. The track has booming Neptunes production and sees Mr. Williams crooning about racial protests and inequality. It's a cry for help and call for arms at the same time with the spoken word in the hook helping their cause. The production is perfectly suited for the mood of the song. As Pharrell exits Jay Z comes in and shows off his knowledge and class. He decries the lies told on social media that confuse the minds of young black people, he tells them to save up and boss up. He's waxing lyrical on this one and his voice richly merges with the hook to give the song a stage performance worthy sound. You want to be a black entrepreneur? Let these two superstars show you how to.
What the song means to me
There has been a significant spike in racially motivated killings since the turn of the decade, it's gotten beyond bad and now black men are scared of going out. We've seen a protest anthem from Run the Jewels, we've seen the Bigger Picture by Lil Baby and now we're getting the powerfully progressive track Entrepreneur from the great Pharrell Williams and the rap legend Jay Z. The track makes me feel eight feet tall and it reminds me that my only limitation is my mind. One for now and one for the future! I will give this song a rating of 9/10.
