A joy to see you, Jimmy 🙏🏾
My guy skateboard P 🖖🏽
I can't wait!
Yooooooo P ❤❤❤
@pharrell you're amazing! bought your lego, i'm a big doodles supporter and lover, too! you are a creative genius!!
Man please come out with your own "Jeen Yuhs" style documentary of your career. The fans wanna see all the real footage of those times. You and Chad are an inspiration to so many.
It’s never too late whether you’re 8 or 80. Now is better than never. 😭 😭 😭 I love him so much !
I agree. this is priceless and needed Ed from a musician 😢😢
Yeah that hit me too! I have way to many hobbies that I'm good at to think I'm to old to not make them a life changing reality! I needed this!
It doesn't matter to him because this is a Vampire, He don't age, lol
I watched this movie and cried several times because as an artist you can relate to the passion it feels to make what you truly love and it was so relatable to me.
Would this be ok for a child to watch my son loves Lego and it looks so interesting
@@beckyo6858 it's really kind of walk through his life. So there are fun light-hearted parts, that go through his childhood. As he goes through adulthood however, he talks about social issues, like the black lives matter movement, and different vices and struggles he's had as well. So depending on how old your son is, just know that it's not all the way family friendly, but it's still an excellent watch.
I Love Pharrell's gratitude. I'm working on being more grateful because it has so many amazing benefits.
The Roots have been with Jimmy for so so long and I'd love to see some more about them as individuals... I miss that keyboard guy when he did his sorry notes when they'd zoom in on his face haha that was the best, they are so talented
That's James. He does that on Fridays when Jimmy writes his weekly thank you notes
They're featured in the show pretty often, mostly when they play games
James Poyser is an incredible musician and songwriter. You should look him up. He's probably been involved in something you absolutely love, and you didn't even know it.
@@huffhouse2 this excites me greatly! Thank you so much for sharing
For sure. I’m feigning for some more Black Thought content too
Being "Lego'd" to me is the equivalent of being "Muppet'd" or sonically being "Weird Al'd". I absolutely feel his understanding of being known for not what you can give but others can appreciate.
Yes!!!
pharell william is inspiring he such a brilliant artist with a genuine beautiful soul 💙.
lego....lego ffs
@@stuartthomas5025lego is dope
This has to be one of the most Powerful interviews I've ever seen. I've always known of Pharrell but I've never seen him in an interview. I'm feeling So impacted and I relate to what he said. 🙆🏾♂🙌🏾
"Now is better than never!" Beautiful words and a great inspiration. Pharrell is awesome!
Seems like such a sweet chill human. My mom always says now is the best time and you can do anything at any age (she is a nurse). I hold these statements to be so true. I love him automatically making roots do a song.
This documentary cheered me up as an English student, because it's sometimes frustrating not being able to understand a movie or show, but the language they used was excellent, I loved it, thank you very much, may you continue to be successful, God bless you.
Pharrell literally just told the roots an intro riff and then, okay you do everything else 😂😂
it's Jimmy's horrible planning....he sets everything up as if it's this spontaneous magical moment but it's just basically a rushed sketch...and even though it would've been cool if he just introduced it as leading into the song instrument by instrument, he tries to sell it like in the title "create a song piece by piece"...which isn't at all what they did
@@directedby5759 Yeah none of it’s improv and Pharrel is definitely a musical leader, it’s just this specific detail that I thought was funny. Still entertaining though 😄
I love Jimmy Fallon. But @Pharrell, as a fellow musician, you really inspired me here. Thank you! 🙏🏼 ❤
Found out about the movie through this interview and saw it today. Loved it. Could see several people grooving in their seats during the movie. Such an energetic and fun soundtrack. I had no idea how many people collaborated with Pharrell over the years. Thanks Pharrell and Jimmy!
His voicemail analogy was awesome. Hats off to you sir - I completely understand now
😎
Wow.....he is 51 years of age! He is ageless....🎉🎉🎉
He looks his age.
@@morbidmanmusic its not true
Yea he looks like a 50 year old black man. Would look younger with a bit more weight on his face. Love him forever.
@@Anne-ku3lj Ist 🆗
That part about hearing an hour of your own voicemails puts a new spin on musicians seeing/hearing themselves all the time (esp the popular ones, that aren't egomaniacs anyway)
I have always loved Pharell
I felt such joy and major goosebumps when Pharrell shared knowledge with us. I feel inspired 🥰 Can't wait to see the documentary!
Every time when I feel fear of doing what I love I will just watch this interview
The "Yes Sir''s are so respectful
Pharrell is One of my favorites❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Piece by piece is an incredible record im excited about this film cant wait to listen to the colourful soundtrack.
he speaks with so much passion ugghhhhh I love!!
Pharrell is smart. Somehow through that Lego toy he will be immortalised
Because all the thousands of hours of Media didn't already do that.
My main takeaway from this was: Pharrell Williams is 51???
Damn!
I knew he wasn't as young as he looked but didn't realize he was 51. That's wild!
51?!?!??
He looks like he's 35 not 51 damn black don't crack at all.
He has a few videos circulating where he takes skin care super seriously :)
I love how he is always talking to the crowd and including them at the conversation
Pharrell is a proper good guy. Fantastic spirit. Need more people like him in this world. Absolute legend.
“Wealth is of the heart and mind, not the pocket.” 🖖
Awesome interview with Pharrell Williams!! Can't wait to see the movie!!!
piece by piece is genuinely one of the best movies i have ever seen
can't wait to see this legomentary!
Nice work, Pharrell. You are inspirational, hopefully to us all!
Bravo!! This film is what people, especially people of young age, need these days! It shows that someone who is "gifted", is not automatically successful. The factor is the effort, the desire for challenge and to cope with and capitalize on setbacks = Growth Mindset!
What a wonderful human being. What a BEAUTIFUL , HUMBLE SOUL❤
Please, please, please, have a Lego version of Nardwaur in the documentary
HONESTLY!!!!!!!
Saw it last night, it’s worth watching ❤
Pharrell never seizes to make me emotional as a kid who was raised on music and it being a dream he is someone who I can relate I don't come from the fanciest background but I dont take anything for granted. And him being so humble and uppy all the time really resonates with my soul and being a genuine human. Thank you pharrell
"HUMILITY"
Tis my favourite character trait of all ❤
Big fan of Pharrall Williams .... he is so gifted🎉🎉🎉 music, clothing, design...creator🎉🎉🎉
Yeah, so well rehearsed. Marketing is magical.
Some sentiment I needed to hear right now. Will be checking out the doc too, leave it to Pharrell to put a fresh spin on something.
Pharrell is awesome! Does lots of work in the community for kids without cameras just to be seen. My guy is a real one!
Wow!! Agree, now is a better world ❤
@pharrell, as a young dude growing up i always the swag and the music its definitely unique and i understand the thought given to every track.
Lego is so great and the company is also really good, not only as a Danish person, but having used it since early childhood.
This is cool. I always been a fan of this dude. Crazy talented 👏
I’ve seen that movie twice already.. ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITE 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
Is it really all cartoon, no actors?
i saw the movie again and again
@ 4:28 mins he coins a phrase ‘Now is better then never’ Pharrell Williams 🔥🎼✍🏾🕉 this should be a mantra.
Took my 9 year old 🎉 to see Piece by Piece in Hawaii he gave it a 8. 😂 rating . I love it🎥🎼🎬. To all the creatives on the film , a evolution in story telling. 😱 mahalo and meric. Leah Tunkara
Pharrell is a musical genius
Just watched the movie last night about to go watch it again today😂 Im In LOVE!!!!
It's a great JOY for me every time I hear it. It’s like a getaway from what's not real, and what I mean by this is that the realest thing in life is joyful children 😂
I love Pharrell Williams music
Here's a song we totally didn't plan in advance lol. The band were just making up a melody, Pharrell basically did nothing but count them in 😂
this guy so inspired me
Pharrell I've watched one of my favorite videos just now and I can't thank you enough for sharing this great project/product Lego Piece by Piece it really is a gift from the Almighty Heavenly Father ❤
Salute to Pharrell! Very inspiring.
Jacket dope asf 🔥🔥🔥
That's the same thing they said about "members only" jackets.
@@morbidmanmusicbro only comments negativity
Prolly cost like 100 000$
Love this!!! ❤🙏🏾 Musical Genius. Blessings to you all.

Pharrell is so talented❤
VA 757 STAND UP‼️One of the greatest from my hometown and my favorite producer of all time. 👏🏾

6:48 “We’re literally doing it piece by piece” That was a great joke💀
One of the most articulate people on the planet. Love listening to Pharrell speak.
Man, I love this man…
1:50 - Pharell
8:20 - Lego Pharrell
😂😂
THIS YOUNG MAN IS SO INSIGHTFUL ❤❤❤
Pharrell is seems like such a humble dude
Yes, but Kelis accused him of something, not paying her for her work or something.
Wow, I’m absolutely floored… what an incredible human being an artist
Love Pharrell! He seems so humble ❤❤❤! And he is so dam cute 🥺.
En este momento de mi vida he descubierto a Pharrell de los 2000s de pronto conozco toda su carrera y no tenía idea de todas las cosas que había hecho, es un genio y me inspira mucho a hacer música, espero que no sea demasiado tarde para mi, gracias por todo tu legado Pharrell 🙏🏼💞
“YEEEEEEEAA, here we go now”🧡
I love Pharrell’s mind and heart. A genius talent, One of One !

Great to see you, Pharrell Williams!!
I don't like anything outside The Neptunes but I have huge respect for The P.
Jaden Smith & Pharrell look like Brothers
This sounds good!
Piece by piece was a great movie it was so dope and fun that when Pharrell was telling his story with Lego pieces! 😊😄😇 and on October 11th right before my birthday and it’s coming up on October 12th!
That movie has inspired me so much ❤ thanks @pharrell
Notice how Jimmy didn't do his incessant random laughs. Just goes to show how profound Pharrell's words were. Twas time to listen without interrupting. 👍
51 years old oh my God he looks so young❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He's trying to compete with Lenny Kravits for the fountain of youth vibe.
Doc looks good!🌟
Love this ❤
GO PHARRELL!!!!!!👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Best man in the world!
This is legit too good
That was really a happy piece❤ :)
