Pharrell Williams just dropped his biggest gospel move yet. Producers and Voices of Fire have officially released THE ONE on all streaming platforms for the first time via Warner Music Records.
This marks a major shift for Pharrell, who hasn’t released a solo album since the release of “Girl” in 2014. The album peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and spawned the hit song “Happy.” Now, he puts that same energy into faith-based music.
“THE ONE” is included on the OPHANIM album, which has ranked No. 16 on Billboard’s Top Gospel Albums chart after its limited release in September.
The project boasts a crazy lineup, including Quavo, John Legend, Teddy Swims, Tori Kelly, CeeLo Green and Zacardi Cortez.
Ferrell has been experiencing serious production difficulties of late. He served as executive producer of Clipse’s comeback album “Let God Sort Em Out” in July 2025, their first collaborative project in 15 years. The album was recorded entirely at Louis Vuitton’s Paris headquarters, where Pharrell built his own recording studio.
Likewise, the OPHANIM album was recorded between Virginia Beach and Paris, reflecting Pharrell’s global outlook.
The Virginia Beach native became Louis Vuitton’s men’s creative director in 2023 and immediately installed professional recording equipment in the fashion house’s offices. He has been designing clothes and making music in the same building.
Voices of Fire performed “THE ONE” at the Louis Vuitton Men’s Fall/Winter 2026 show at the Louvre in Paris. The show combines style, sound and spirit on one of the biggest stages in the world.
The group from Virginia rose to fame on the Netflix series “Sound of Fire,” starring Bishop Ezekiel Williams. They’ve redefined faith-inspired music with standout albums like “Hit the Refresh” and 2023’s “JOY (Unspeakable).”
Their momentum continues to build. Voices of Fire sang the U.S. and Canadian national anthems during Game 1 of the 2025 World Series and was broadcast to more than 200 countries around the world.
The full OPHANIM album will soon debut on all streaming platforms, extending beyond the original vinyl, CD and iTunes releases.
