Jay-Z dropped a bit of a bomb on Monday when he revealed that wife Beyonce had a miscarriage before the couple were able to conceive daughter Blue Ivy.
News of the miscarriage arrived in the form of a song titled “Glory” which was released on Monday in honor of Blue Ivy’s birth this weekend.
In the song Jay-Z raps:
“Last time the miscarriage was so tragic/We was afraid you’d disappear/But nah baby you magic.”
On the song an audio sample can be heard of Blue Ivy crying just a few minutes after she was born. The track was put together quickly with the help of super producer Pharrell.
Other lyrics include:
“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.”
Here’s the audio track from the song:

It’s a touching song from the rapper, it’s just too bad he hasn’t had the same respect for other parents giving birth in the same hospital .
