The Strokes vs Santogold vs Pharrell vs Converse

With a header like the one above your natural instinct is to assume I’m about to post some bad mash up done by a kid who emailed me from Norway. However I’m not going to. As per usual a common cause in place was enough to bring 2 of the worlds biggest artists, Pharrell aka the Pharrell and Julian Casablancas from the Strokes withone of the worlds most successful A&R personalities / blog queen Santogold together for one track/video/ad. The common cause was CONVERSE.

Santogold described the track as as ‘such a Pharrell track’ which in itself leaves a lot of doors open as to which direction it will head. Brooklyn’s darling also notes that “Julian and I, I mean everybody on it does there own separate thing and we didn’t do it together so it ends up being just this weird long song with sort of everybody with lots of their own personalities separate… everybody really represented themselves well on it.’

An AD campaign worth looking forward to?
