Yes, you read that right. All star music group and producing team, N.E.R.D, has earned their first Hot 100 Billboard entry with their latest single “Lemon.”

N.E.R.D, composed of Pharrell, Chad Hugo, and Shea Haley,  released their first album in 2002 called “In Search Of.” Their first single as a group, “Lapdance,” was released in 2001. The group has actually released eleven singles together, and the only one to make it on the Hot 100 Charts is “Lemon” featuring Rihanna. Their albums have had more success. All four of the groups albums have charted on the Hot 200 album chart, the highest peaking at number 6 and the lowest, their debut, peaking at 56.

With “Lemon” being their only Hot 100 single, lets take a look at the musical greatness of N.E.R.D.
