Audio: Hear Jay-Z's Emotional New Song About Baby-- Featuring Blue Ivy Herself!
Blue Ivy Carter is just two days old -- but her music career has already begun!
The sweet cries of Beyonce and Jay-Z's brand-new daughter are heard on "Glory," a brand-new track recorded by overjoyed dad Jay-Z, 42, and posted on his website Life + Times.

The track was produced by Pharrell and credits little Blue as "B.I.C."
Dropping rhymes shortly after his daughter's Saturday birth in NYC, the rapper (real name: Shawn Carter) is at his most emotional, 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."
Referencing first-time mom Beyonce's musical past, the hip hop star adds: "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 notoriously private star even reveals that he and Beyonce, 30, conceived the baby in Paris, and opens up about a miscarriage in the past.

"Last time the miscarriage was tragic / We was afraid you'd disappear but nah baby you're magic."

Heard the song and its nice.. @Shanae'..Oliver Can u explain what you mean by your statement. I heard something about that before but never really paid it any attention. and to Terri Jones-that passed thru my mind when I heard it-actually pressed rewind to make sure I heard him right!
very nice thought and the emotion is obvious, but seriously, the profanity is a bit much!
nice feelings are obvious, but sure could have done without the profanitys are obv
Cute, very sweet. Is the line about "making sure the plane you're on is bigger than your carry-on luggage" a reference to Aaliyah?
I'm happy for Jay-Z!!!! He says the baby looks like a little him...Funny how he brought up the "miscarriage" Beyonce had before she took those 9 months off-I still believe that baby was sacrificed, but I'm happy that they paid their debt and got to experience the joy of parenthood...
Simply precious!!!
i didnt really hear the words the first time i heard the song but the 2nd time i paid attention & the song is really deep & precious.You can tell they r truely in love!!! the babys cry was so sweet.
sounds like hes about to cry, but happy tears!!! really sweet of him u can tell hes a proud new daddy, & the sounds of B & the baby in there is neay. Love it. Sad tho about their previous loss,. CONGRATS BEYONCE & JAY-Z BEST WISHES!!!!!!!!
I agree with Halley. Stevie Wonder did a similar thing without any profanity. Is he planning on playing this for her someday? Congrats to them. I know how devastating the loss of a child is, as I've experienced it twice. @Tiffany with all due respect, this is an opinion comment section. The title doesn't really prepare the listener for that kind of language as it's described as a song about his baby.
that was so sweet of him but sad to in that he revealed their previous loss
Omg first time i heard this i cried. Its so sweet and a baby's cry is the most beautiful sound
I love this so much!! What a great personal song to share with us!!
That's really a sweet song.
It's such a beautiful song!!!! you can tell how much he loves his little princess!!!!! May God Bless Them!!!!!
Aww....
So? It's Jay-Z song not Halley-M song, you don't like the cursing, then don't listen to it. Get out of here!
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!! SO sweet to hear the words of a proud dad!!!!
Awww, Jay-Z at his most sentimental. Very sweet. I think every parent can relate at least a little bit. :)
