Pharrell Unveils New Song "Yellow Light", Taken From The Despicable Me 3 Soundtrack

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Pharrell scored an Oscar nomination with his Despicable Me 2 hit "Happy" back in 2014. Now, the N.E.R.D. member is hoping to find similar success in "Yellow Light", a song that appears in the next film in the Despicable Me franchise.
"Congratulations! / Yellow light shining down / Whoopty-doo," he sings. "Yellow light shining down / You control the world now / Yellow light shining down / Look at you!"
A video game-like visual for "Yellow Light" is scheduled to drop tomorrow (June 9), but Pharrell has released a fun teaser in the meantime.



Pharrell's work on "Happy" helped Despicable Me 2 become a box office smash in 2013 and it also gave him his first No. 1 on the Hot 100 as a lead solo artist. Featuring the voices of Steve Carell, Trey Parker, Kristen Wiig, and Miranda Cosgrove, Despicable Me 3 is due in theaters June 30.
