Jay-Z is revealing more details of his personal life and daughter Blue Ivy in a Samsung ad for his highly-anticipated album Magna Carta Holy Grail .
In the song “Jay-Z Blue,” the rapper details what it is like to be a dad, describing daughter Blue Ivy as something he and wife Beyoncé “both created” and “still marvel at” when looking upon her, The Huffington Post reports.
"It deals with [the fact that] my pop left when I was young. He didn't teach me how to be a man nor how to raise a child -- or treat a woman," Jay-Z tells Rick Rubin of the song. "The two things I need, I don't have ... and I have a daughter. It's [about] the paranoia of not being a great dad."
Jay-Z’s fears about parenting are also addressed on another song called “Heaven,” in which he says his idea of paradise is his “daughter's laughter.”
“Hell could be if your child is missing for three minutes--you’re in three minutes of hell," he says in another black and white ad for the song. "It's just not my belief that a just God would make you burn for eternity for [the] free will that he gave you."
Jay-Z signed a $20 million promotional deal with Samsung, according to a previous report by The Celebrity Cafe , and plans to release his new album early to Samsung users, as well as develop an exclusive music-streaming service to promote his work.
