Pharrell Gives Scoop On Jay-Z's 'Glory' Tribute



"It was something we had planned before it happened, so we were basically waiting," Pharrell said in an interview. "That was like our nod and homage to when Stevie [Wonder] did it for his baby, Asia [on 'Isn't She Lovely']. And we weren't trying to make the same song at all, it was like we wanted to capture a moment in time to commemorate the birth of his baby. ...

I did the same thing with [my baby] Rocket, I'm just more quiet and private about my life. -- He and his beautiful wife, they live a different lifestyle and for him it was important for him to stop everything that he had going on and just sort of make statement to his baby and his wife -- I was honored to be a filmmaker for that beat."
