N*E*R*D – No_One Ever Really Dies VG+/VG+

No_One Ever Really Dies is the fifth studio album by American hip hop and rock band N.E.R.D. It was their first full-length album since 2010’s Nothing. The album is a genre-bending mix of hip hop, rock, funk, and electronic music, and features guest appearances from Rihanna, André 3000, Kendrick Lamar, M.I.A., Gucci Mane, Wale, Future, and Ed Sheeran.

The album’s title is a reference to the idea that people live on in the memories of those who loved them. This theme is explored in the album’s lyrics, which deal with topics such as death, loss, love, and hope.

Musically, No_One Ever Really Dies is a departure from N.E.R.D.’s earlier work. The album is more experimental and sonically adventurous, with Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo’s production incorporating elements of psychedelia, Afrobeat, and even gospel music.

No_One Ever Really Dies was a critical and commercial success, and it won the Grammy Award for Producer of the Year, Non-Classical. The album is considered one of N.E.R.D.’s best, and it is a must-listen for fans of hip hop, rock, and experimental music.
