Jay-Z used to have to try to persuade his daughter Blue Ivy that she has “cool” parents.
The 53-year-old rapper has Blue, 11, and five-year-old twins Rumi and Sir with music megastar Beyonce, 42, – who he married in 2008 – and explained that whilst his eldest now approves of her superstar dad now, that was not always the case.
Speaking on ‘CBS Mornings’, he told Gayle King: “She used to be frontin’ on me a little bit. But [now] I catch her. I catch her in the corner, you know? Now she asks me, you know, if this is cool, if her sneakers [are cool]. There was a time where she was like, ‘Daaaaad,’and I would say ‘I’m cool. I don’t know what you saying, I’m cool! You got cool parents! At your house, your parents [are] cool.'”
The ‘Empire State of Mind’ hitmaker releases music through his Roc Nation independent label and explained that his masters will revert back to him but admitted that it is the choice of his children if they decide to sell the company when he is gone.
