Pusha T recently linked up with NIGO to collaborate on his ‘I Know NIGO’ album, with the two coming together for the track “Hear Me Clearly.” Via Instagram, Pusha spoke more about the collaboration, and told a story about how Pharrell kept it all the way real with him about the single.
“Fun Fact: @pharrell heard this song and told me, 'it’s cool, but I don’t want you to be a mixtape rapper for the rest of your life,’” said Pusha. The rapper then talked about how Pharrell’s honesty threw him off but was appreciated.
He continued saying, “I was devastated. He then flew me to Miami and proceeded to produce the first half of the best album of the year. Moral of the story…always 'push' your friends to be greater, even when they’re the greatest.” Take a look above.
