N.E.R.D. Unveils New Visual for "Lemon" (Feat. Rihanna)

It’s hard to believe that it’s been seven years since N.E.R.D. (Pharrell Williams, Chad Hugo and Shay Haley) blessed the world with Nothing. Now, the trio returns with a new bounc-y single titled “Lemon,” which features the vocal stylings of Rihanna and sees the crew at their most aggressive and (maybe?) socially-charged:

I get it how I live it
I live it how I get
Count the motha***in’ digits
I pull up with a lemon
Not ’cause she ain’t livin’
It’s just your eyes get acidic
And this here ain’t a scrimmage
Mothaf***a, we ain’t finished…

You can check out the accompanying visual above, which is being labelled as a “tutorial” that features a Rih Rih head-shaving scene (she’s doing the shaving) and some intense dance action. The single is also available via iTunes.

Also: N.E.R.D. will be making a physical reunion at this weekend’s ComplexCon, which we can hope that info on a new album is revealed (Los Angelenos already seeing “No One Ever Really Dies” billboards, so we know it’s coming).
