Not happy with the reception of his last album, Pharrell has touched super rings with The Roots’ ?uestlove to take the best of what they bring to the mixing board and re-record In My Mind. The newly conceived dish is called Out of My Mind.

In attempt to get people really grabbing the meaning of his debut solo album, Pharrell called ?estlove to ‘operate’ the set and revealed the true ‘diamond’. “Pharrell called me at 4 a.m. like three times in a row from Japan,” ?uestlove wrote. “He sold me on the album: ‘I need to make this world see my vision with this record. Please help me translate it, man!’ He had me dressing and in the studio starting this record five hours later.”

?uestlove brought in his new instrument playing cronies The Yessirs, smashed out 18 hour days for two weeks and completed the project.

Pharrell says he’s blown away by the results.

The question is.. does he think adding live instruments will make the nonbelievers ‘feel’ it any differently?

Like now it’s gonna crack the 106 top 10?

I hope that’s not his goal: quality/creative music does not guarantee platinum plaques. Now if you’re talking about the platinum in the plaques..

You can hear one song, P and the Yessirs on ?uestlove’s Myspace page.

Oh yeah, think the record company is gassed over this? There is currently no delivery date for Pharrell’s new baby.
