Pharrell Williams sent kind words to Richie, which Brown read: “Lionel is the ultimate musical alchemist! Any time you hear a Lionel Richie song, it takes you back to the moment you first heard it.”
“You are in the prime seat to tell the world what they need to know,” Richie said to the graduating student artists.
