The Neptunes #1 fan site, all about Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo

“It’s a profound love story, man,” Sean Combs told MTV News Wednesday night via phone from L.A. “It’s about this tumultuous love roller-coaster relationship that occurs. It’s everything from love, pain, sex, God, celebration. It’s a lot of things rolled into one. It’s a conceptual album. “One of the things I wanna give you that’s not out there yet is that it’s not me as a solo artist,” Diddy added. “It’s a group I put together; myself and two girls. Two young ladies, you may know them or you may not. It’s almost like some back-in-the-day Loose Ends-type sh–. We’re going to be telling the story of Last Train To Paris.”

“A movie is going to be shot to it too,” Diddy said. “It’s definitely going to be an album you can seamlessly see. Not after the fact. When you get the album on that day, September 22, you will be able to see the whole album on your computer. I go into production of the movie in May. Pharrell Williams also talked to MTV News about the project on Wednesday. “I thought it was sick,” he said of Diddy’s concept. “I think he’s a super-smart guy who knows where things are going. He told me, ‘Yo, just make me sick beats. I want them to dance; I want them to have a good time.’ … I was like, ‘Wow.’ For me, it was like making music for a movie.”

Alesha Dixon has revealed that she would love to team up with Pharrell Williams. The ‘Breathe Slow’ singer said that she would jump at the opportunity to collaborate with him if her record company would agree to the fee. “That would be really, really, cool, as long as he doesn’t charge too much money because he a quite expensive person to work with,” she told Key 103. “I definitely think the thought is there and I am sure when it comes to making the second record we will definitely think about it, because obviously we didn’t have any colabs on this album.” The star also claimed to be embarrassed after it emerged that she recently got a flight from Cannes with Coldplay singer Chris Martin on his private jet. “Oh I feel so tacky saying this, but yes he did. Oh god, he’s a really lovely guy and he did, myself and my manager, give us a lift back,” she said. “And I was really annoyed actually that it came out in the press, because for me personally it’s just not my style.”
