The Neptunes Tidbits
- Pharrell and Chad met at summer camp in Virginia Beach
- The Neptunes were originally a quartet while Pharrell was part of a different production collective called Surrounded by Idiots (also a member: Timbaland)
- Teddy Riley hosted a talent show at their school and subsequently gave the Neptunes (group) a deal
- Pharrell wrote Teddy's verse on Wreckx-N-Effect's Rump Shaker and provided backgrounds on his remix of SWV's Right Here
- The Neptunes turned into a production duo by 1994 and earned their first placement by co-producing Blackstreet's Tonight's the Night
- They went on to produce a top-10 R&B hit for SWV and top-20 R&B hit for Total before landing their first mainstream hit with Ma$e's Lookin' at Me (#8 Hot 100; #1 Hot Rap Singles)
- To date, they've produced over 105 top-40 hits across multiple genres, produced on records in excess of 200 million sales, have won 4 Grammys and were named the top producers of the decade in 2009 by Billboard!
- There's 17 days left to get at least 1 list in!

As I wait on the tidal wave of last minute submissions to come in, question for the audience based on a conversation had yesterday: is Wind It Up better without the Sound of Music sample that Gwen insisted Pharrell use (despite his disapproval) or do you actually enjoy it with the sample?

First of all, I have always HATED "Wind It Up." But the version with the sample is way better. 1) The Neptunes were giving everybody the same sounding beat at that time, so the sample was a good break from the monotony of their style. 2) The original beat didn't properly support Gwen and all that obnoxious ass screaming she's doing. The sample makes it sound FULL.

Damn this rankdown has been the playlist of the day. My coworker keeps laughing at me because I haven't stopped bopping my head and humming all the songs.
I'm almost done with actually ranking but I'll be listening to these playlists the rest of the day.

This honestly won't be closed until resident stan Linnethia Monique turns in his lists but...the clock is ticking! Still no pressure to do all three but the more, the merrier. (More honorable mentions)

Well I’m doing the hip hop one as we speak but it if we have a couple of extra days I can get the r&b one in too. I owe you Shooter over K Michelle lol.
ETA: Okay hip hop is submitted. But I had to share this part. When I’m doing a rankdown, l listen to the playlist and divide the songs into 4 categories as I go - Love/Like/Okay/Nope lol. Then I go back and rank within the categories Love is for songs I think deserve to be top 10 and if I think it’s a good candidate for number 1 I put a * next to it. Usually I don’t even get to 10 songs under Love and maybe I’ll have 2 candidates for number 1.
This time I had 14 songs under Love and 7 with a star next to it.
The Neptunes are the shit. I knew this but the rankdown brought it home.
Next I will tackle R&B tomorrow! I hope y’all found this rankdown easier to do than I did. Heh.

So Marie Osmond Is A Bad Mother!! has shook up the highest and lowest SD for the Hip-Hop category and put a clean 30 points in-between the #1 and #2 while giving us a new #30 in the process (and the only song left with less than 100 points). Pop updates to come tomorrow.

So that means #1 or #2 is my #30. #1 was already up by 9, so, if the #2 remained the same, you put 21 more points between them.

I'm still going in for this, but I'm tackling Alt 2003 first 'cause that's a big job and I want to try and get that done in one sitting. After that one, this should be a lot easier.

I should've clarified the top-3 remained unchanged but there's now more distance between the 1 and 2.

And we finally have our first list in from Linnethia Monique This brings the hip-hop pool to 13! There were a couple shake-ups in the top-10 without anything exiting and the top-3 remains unchanged; 25 points separate the top-2; #3 is trailing #2 by 17 points. Also, thanks to Linnethia Monique, the two lowest SDs went from sharing space into the top-10 to being in the top-5 and bottom-5 respectively. :kii: Pop update soon come!

Submitted for Pop. Kinda disappointing, but I will say this: I didn't tank any of the Britney songs, or even the Miley song.

Sent for Rap and Pop!!! Hopefully my 30 does not win the rap one. I do legit hate it a lot. May do R&B too.

- the gap between the top-2 has shrunk to SIX points with #3 trailing by 21
- one song has finally broken out of the bottom-5 while another one has finally sunk there
- the song with the lowest SD has finally changed and the previous #1 is no longer top-5 highest or lowest SD.
- we went from no ties to a 3-way tie for #5 (thanks Gravey)
For hip-hop:
- There's been two shake-ups in the top-5 with 39 points now separating the top-2 but only 1 point separating #2-#3
- One song has been replaced in the bottom-5
- One of the current top-3 now has the third highest SD
At this point, the last handful of lists I'm expecting could make some significant changes depending on where their taste lies. R&B update coming tomorrow.
