Reflecting on his journey from a childhood in Virginia Beach to becoming a hip-hop producer, streetwear designer, and pop music icon, he expressed his awe and appreciation for being given the opportunity to lead in such a prestigious position in luxury fashion.

As a Black man, Pharrell recognizes the significance of his appointment and sees himself as a perpetual student, ready to learn and grow in this role. The offer came unexpectedly but perfectly timed, and he sees it as a favor rather than mere fortune.

Regardless, Pharrell is embracing this opportunity with enthusiasm and a deep sense of responsibility.
