New father Jay-Z just posted this new Neptunes-produced song, “Glory”, dedicated to his infant daughter Ivy Blue Carter. Our favorite couplet: You’re my child with the child from Destiny Child / That’s a hell of a recipe. But it’s not all cheery. Jay goes on to talk about miscarriages and false alarms. Toward the end of the song, however, you can hear what we’re assuming is an authentic recording of little Ivy crying. Her first record at 3 days old. Aww, sweet. Congratulations, folks.
