Pharrell Williams fans, forget pining for his return to The Voice. It’s not happening. But chin up: he’s been busy working on albums for Ariana Grande, Justin Timberlake and a mystery project which may or may not be an N.E.R.D. record.

“Honestly, I’ve got to work. I got so much work to do,” was his assessment on going another round of reality TV. “I have work to do. Music to make. And so many records…Ariana Grande’s album is amazing. The Justin Timberlake album is amazing. There’s another album I can’t talk about but my fans know about it.”

So while it’s disappointing that we won’t see him return to The Voice in the near future, we can get excited about all the new music he’s working on!
