Overview

  • Tyler revealed he recorded his verse for Clipse’s “P.O.V.” between 79 and 100 times before finalizing his performance
  • He admitted he almost asked Pusha T to pull his feature because he feared he couldn’t do justice to a track produced by his idols
  • The rapper described the session as high stakes since he was working alongside Clipse and Pharrell Williams, whom he calls his creative “Mount Rushmores”
  • “P.O.V.” is featured on Let God Sort Em Out, Clipse’s first album in 16 years, entirely produced by Pharrell and released earlier this month
  • Pusha T sent the track in April and Tyler delivered his completed verse in late May to early June after extensive revisions
