Jay-Z Celebrates Birth of Daughter with New Song
Track produced by Pharrell, features audio of Blue Ivy Carter crying
Proud father Jay-Z has released a new song celebrating the birth of his daughter Blue Ivy Carter on his lifestyle website Life + Times. The song, called “Glory,” was produced by Pharrell and features audio of Blue Ivy ”“ credited as B.I.C. ”“ recorded shortly after her birth on Saturday.
As can be expected, Jay-Z sounds overwhelmed with joy on the track, rapping “The most amazing feeling I feel, words can’t describe what I’m feeling for real / Baby, I paint the sky blue, my greatest creation was you,” and later rhapsodizing “You’re the child of destiny / you’re the child of my destiny / you’re my child with the child from Destiny’s Child.”
The song is also rather revealing, with the rapper spilling that he and Beyoncé conceived their child in Paris, and alluding to a previous miscarriage. “Last time the miscarriage was tragic / We was afraid you’d disappear but nah baby you’re magic.”
