Kemps Landing is the magnet school, which is the gifted school, and probably why they were there and not at Salem HS. Love his homage to our home town.

They are doing their own thing and have to a while. Happy and all that is pharrell alone, I think Chad worked on some songs with Syd that Kyd's band

Did he get into that magnet school specifically for his music skills

[@OOpSjm]

Magnet school focused on music

[@cudfamily6700]

@@OOpSjm is a magnet school basically a public school but it focuses on one subject primarily?

[@OOpSjm]

@@cudfamily6700 A specialization. The amenities, staff and student body would be focused around the "Arts". Just a mirror of the european system where students pick a curriculum track in high school.

[@cudfamily6700]

@@OOpSjm is the enrollment process of a magnet school like public school? Or is it like Bronx science, where you need to take an entrance exam, or does it depend?

[@OOpSjm]

@@cudfamily6700 I think it depends on the particular school district. I think most have an interview process and tend to have long wait lists.

[@BougieHoodBaby]

I love them as a group but I always say Chad and Pharrell when speaking about them. It seems like people try to make Chad an afterthought because he likes to play the silent partner.
