Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

‘Cherry Pie’ is very special to me. I started writing it by myself but then my sons took it over. There’s a video online where you can see them taking over the song, writing the lyrics, really wilding out because it was their first lyrical composition with their dad’s help. And Pharrell killed it, he was in Jamaica with us for a week, just holding a meditation, vibing through the song. It’s my first work with my boys, our first work together. It’s that special. I really like ‘Cherry Pie’, it’s a beautiful vibe and my children love it too.
