N.E.R.D. Is Your 'Provider'

(11/1/02, 12 p.m. ET) -- N.E.R.D.--which comprises Neptunes members Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams along with rapper Shay--is set to release a third single, "Provider," from its debut album, In Search Of.... The album was recently certified gold for sales of 500,000 copies.

N.E.R.D., which took home the Shortlist Prize for artistic achievement in music on Tuesday (October 29) at the Henry Fonda Theatre in Hollywood, recently shot a video for "Provider" with video director Diane Martel.

While it would seem that things are good for N.E.R.D., several published reports suggest that the group is unhappy with its label, Virgin Records. Groupmember Williams commented, "The album was certified gold without the support of the leadership of Virgin Records."
