N¤E¤R¤D are set to release a feature film about their journey from the recording studio to live performances. The film, scheduled for a December 2008 release, has been directed by none other than famed Hip Hop video connoisseur Hype Williams. Pharrell revealed all on whilst being interviewed by Angie Martinez on New York radio station Hot 97 “The movie is going to be like The Beatles’ Hard Day’s Night… It’s a full length film. It’s for our fans.” Hype, aka Harold, has worked with almost everybody in hip-hop; from the Notorious B.I.G. to Kanye West, Jay-Z to LL Cool J and is also responsible for N¤E¤R¤D’s Rock Star video.

I’m curious. If it was anyone else, probably not so much. But being that I can never get enough N.E.R.D. (or Pharrell for that matter… he’s so yummy!), and Hype is an interesting filmmaker, it may actually have something to it, to make it worth watching.
