Has Skepta been in the studio with Pharrell Williams?
The MC hinted at the collaboration with a sneaky instagram snap.
Skepta has hinted that he’s working in the studio with Pharrell Williams. The MC posted a sneaky snap of the back of a ‘mystery’ producer’s head - though, let’s face it, the jaunty headwear is a dead-cert Pharrell giveaway. Skepta has been working on his long-awaited debut album ‘Konnichiwa’ all year.
Though it’s not clear whether Pharrell is producting an entire album, a single track, or even something unrelated to ‘Konnichiwa,’ he’s definitely been up to something with Skepta. Watch the two of them discuss the finer points of celebrating birthdays with Jamie Woon on Williams’ Beats1 show below.
