I get it how I live it
I live it how I get it, y’all don’t really get it
I pull up in a lemon, blocks get to spinnin’
Money 3D printin’
Never had a limit, never been religious
I just always had opinions
My daddy told me, “Listen
You better get some money and not die and go to prison”

Check out the update of the No_One Ever Really Dies cut above.

UPDATE: The Virginia trio have delivered a new visual from the project for the Future-assisted “1000.” None of the collaborators make an appearance in the clip; instead, viewers are witness to a collection of footage centered around all of the problems happening around the globe, interspersed with dance routines throughout. Check it out below.

In addition to Eminem‘s Revival, the Pharrell Williams-led N.E.R.D. will be delivering their new album — No_One Ever Really Dies — on December 15th. Following “Lemon” (featuring Rihanna) and “Rollinem 7’s” (featuring André 3000), we now get to check out a new collaboration from the project alongside Atlanta emcee Future.

Enjoy “1000” below and pre-order No_One Ever Really Dies via iTunes.

UPDATE: It looks like the official artwork for No_One Ever Really Dies is above. It all goes down December 15th — pre-order here.

Last weekend, N.E.R.D. (comprised of Pharrell Williams, Chad Hugo and Shay Haley) followed the release of the Rihanna-backed “Lemon” by making an official on-stage return at this year’s ComplexCon, where they gave fans a taste of their forthcoming album, No_One Ever Really Dies. As can be seen below, it was a majestic performance of dancers, lights and cars.

Added to that, fans are now able to see the official tracklisting for the project (below), which — in addition to Rih Rih — sees some heavy appearances from Gucci Mane, Wale, Kendrick Lamar (who appears twice), M.I.A., Future, André 3000 and Ed Sheeran. As of yet, there’s still no release date — knowing Pharrell & Co., that might mean they’ll simply release the album when they feel like it, which could be any day now.

1. “Deep Down Body Thirst”
2. “Lemon” featuring 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).
