After about the 3rd listen, you know you’re gonna love it. It doesn’t matter how crazy or stupid the beat may sound at first. The album doesn’t really break any more ground for rap music, because the Neptunes have already basically broken all the ground they possibly can. I don’t know what they are doing on this album, but it’s just crazy enough to work. Right after Snoop Dogg’s joint, here comes a song that could have easily fit onto any Weezer or Third Eye Blind disc. In the middle of the disc, tracks 10 and 11, there two modern rock tracks. Actually, none of the stuff on this disc measures up to NERD’s disc, “In Search Of”, but it at no time tries. It includes one of her older tracks, “Popular Thug”, on a remix with Nas. Another highlight of the disc is the terribly under rated Kelis, who never really made it in the US. The album also allows some newcomers signed to the Star Trak label to showcase their talents- though the Vanessa Marquez and Fam-Lay songs are ultimately forgettable. It’s as close as we get to NERD’s “In Search Of…” on this disc, with their classic laid-back vibe to it. But one of the true highlights of the disc is Pharrell’s own tune, “Frontin’”. Ludacris and Nelly fail to disappoint, both bringing their trademark styles to the table. The first real track on the album (also the 3rd single), Busta Rhyme’s “Light Your A** on Fire” has that type of minimalist beat reminiscent of Ms. And not only is Clones a solid rap album, but it pushes the boundaries of what a rap album can be. The whole lineup’s here, folks: Snoop Dogg, Clipse, Ludacris, Nelly, and yes, even a new track from NERD. Recording Industry Association of America.Well now that the Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Yugo) are now the biggest producers… ever, it only seems right that they release a showcase of tunes from rap’s hot list of all stars to make one killer album. ^ "American album certifications – The Neptunes – Clones".^ "Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums – Year-End 2003".^ "Top Billboard 200 Albums – Year-End 2003".^ "The Neptunes Chart History (Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums)".^ "The Neptunes Chart History ( Billboard 200)".^ "Official Compilations Chart Top 100".^ " – The Neptunes & Friends – The Neptunes - Present.^ " The Neptunes & Friends: The Neptunes - Present.^ "The Neptunes Chart History (Canadian Albums)".^ "Ultratop.be – The Neptunes & Friends – The Neptunes - Present.Mt Martha, Victoria, Australia: Moonlight Publishing. ^ "Hitmakers The Neptunes Land Compilation At No. Various - The Neptunes Present Clones Label : Star Trak Entertainment Condition : Used / Sleeve: NM, Vinyl: NM- Detail : US 1st Press, 2003, 2 x Vinyl.
