Pharrell Williams's Signature Hat on Display at the Grammy Museum Through March

Remember that strange hat Pharrell Williams wore to the Grammys last year? Of course you do. The producer/singer auctioned off the famous cap after the ceremony, raising nearly $45,000 for his charity From One Hand to Another. Fast food chain Arby's won the bid and has now lent the hat to the Grammy Museum, which will put it on display until March 15 in an exhibit titled the Grammy Effect, Billboard notes.

The hat served as a lucky charm for the singer last January. He took home the Best Record of the Year Award for "Get Lucky," Album of the Year for Random Access Memories and Best Pop/Duo Performance with Daft Punk for the stellar track. He also performed a medley of tunes with Daft Punk, Niles Rodgers and Stevie Wonder.

Pharrell will look to duplicate last year's success at next month's award ceremony. His 2014 solo effort GIRL is up for Album of the Year and Best Urban Contemporary Album. The monster lead single "Happy" is nominated for Best Pop Performance and Best Music Video.

GIRL came out in March and went straight to the top of the charts behind singles like "Marilyn Monroe," "Gust of Wind" and "It Girl." The album received positive reviews from multiple outlets.

"The 10 songs on Girl are steeped in sunshine, air and the most natural, universal strains of Seventies and Eighties R&B. The thick, juicy beats are full of hand claps and falsetto sex; the overall vibe is less $300 champagne behind the velvet rope than Miller High Life on the stoop in summertime," Rolling Stone wrote in its four-star review.

Pharrell's next project is Snoop Dogg's upcoming album Bush. The singer has a guest spot on the record, due out in March, as well as a producer credit.
