That raw, unfiltered PSA energy — ‘CAUSE HE’S HOT!’ — screamed with urgency by a woman who probably didn’t even know she was about to be immortalized in a Pharrell classic. Pharrell took that wild moment, flipped it, looped it, and turned it into one of the most iconic sample in Clipse history: “Mike Tyson Blow To The Face.”
The voice? Her name is Alexa Darell — a woman caught in the middle of what looks like a heartfelt plea for help and awareness, somewhere out in Arizona. The way she punctuates her message with ‘CAUSE HE’S HOT!’ felt like a street gospel moment. And only Pharrell could hear the rhythm, the tone, the bounce in that chaos… and flip it into a knock-out bar for Pusha T & Malice to body.
That’s the genius of Pharrell. It’s not just crate-digging anymore — it’s culture-digging. Finding gold in the most unexpected, raw corners of the internet, then polishing it into audio diamonds. Before we even knew what we were listening to… before the beat even dropped… we were already nodding. Watch the CLIP. Soak it in. Respect the roots.
