Pharrell recently offered his thoughts on Ferguson, Missouri - from questionable media coverage to the absence of the president - in conversation with CNN's Don Lemon. The conversation follows the killing of unarmed St. Louis teen Michael Brown and Lemon's rather memorable verbal spat with Brooklyn rapper Talib Kweli. Pharrell commented on the death of Brown, who was killed by a law enforcement officer, and called people to task on both sides of the subsequent conflict which found some protestors involved in violent clashes with police. Watch the clip below to get the full rundown from Pharrell.
