i still think about this video often

pharrell's stages of feelin' it. maggie's glances for approval. pharrell comparing her to the wu-tang clan two seconds after it ends. perfection.

If you’re a music student who’s played a masterclass for an artist you admire, you know how emotionally taxing this is. Lots of vulnerability. And usually you get constructive criticism in front of a whole audience… rarely praise at the level Maggie received.

what is happening

hahahahaha i think about this constantly too

Why is this a core memory for so many of us? I think about this video frequently. Is it the sheer vulnerability?

it’s so pure 🥹

Same. It’s so rare to catch this honest, in-the-moment, truly amazed reaction. Just fantastic!

Go back to this video every year or so. It doesn’t get old
