Buddy & Kendrick Lamar Premiere The Neptunes Produced Track "Staircases" At SXSW [VIDEO]

Kendrick Lamar took the Doritos Jacked stage this weekend at SXSW and gave the crowd a treat that he hadn't shared at his many other South By performances during the week. Kendrick brought out fellow Comptonite Buddy, who is signed to Pharrell's Star Trak label, and debuted The Neptunes produced track "Staircases." Watch the short clip below, and hit up the comments with your thoughts on "Staircases" so far!

The 25 Best Pharrell Hooks by Complex Mag

Yet another amazing countdown by Complex.  I've been a lover of Pharrell, The Neptunes, and N*E*R*D for about 3/4 of my life, so when I saw this, I found myself playing back all of the songs he's been involved with and downloading the hits I seemed to neglect.

My favorites off the list have to be:

#22: Snoop Dogg f/ Pharrell: Let's Get Blown
#19: N*E*R*D: Provider
#17: Jay-Z f/ Pharrell: So Ambitious
#14: Jay-Z f/ Pharrell: I Know
#11: N*E*R*D: She Wants To Move
#9: Jadakiss: Knock Yourself Out
#5: Pharrell f/ Jay-Z: Frontin'
#2: Snoop Dogg f/ Pharrell: Beautiful


Aww....nostalgia...
