Freedom. June 30th Apple Music
Posted by Pharrell Williams on Tuesday, June 23, 2015

Remember when Drake and Pharrell were caught in the act wearing Apple Watch on their hands two weeks before the gizmo was actually released for the general public? This should have been a hint about the special relationship they are forging with Apple, confirmed by the presence of the two artists during the Apple Music service unveiling, too.

Drake and Pharrell are also lined up to be guest DJs for Apple's Beats 1 radio station, but that's not all that will be required of them, it seems. Pharrell just outed a teaser for an Apple Music exclusive track that is called Freedom, and will be available June 30th, or the date when iOS 8.4 hits the airwaves, bringing with it the much anticipated Apple Music streamer. Here's the bit performed live by Pharrell for the first time.
