‘Getting Beyonce to date me was not easy’-Jay Z Reveals, Also Says His Biggest Fan Is Daughter, Blue Ivy


She may only be 18-months old, but little Blue Ivy is already a big fan of her father Jay-Z's music.

The 43-year-old hip hop mogul revealed he and Beyonce's little girl especially enjoys listening to his latest album Magna Carta... Holy Grail.

'She loves all the songs,' he tells Vanity Fair in a new interview. 'She plays a song and she goes, "More, Daddy, more... Daddy song." She’s my biggest fan. If no one bought the Magna Carta [album], the fact that she loves it so much, it gives me the greatest joy.

'And that’s not like a cliché. I’m really serious. She’s genuine, she’s honest, because she doesn’t know it makes me happy. She just wants to hear it.

'I don’t know if Blue ever heard any of my music prior to this album,' he adds. 'I don’t play my music around the house.'

In the candid chat with the November issue of the magazine, Jay discusses his pursuit of Beyonce, her pregnancy, his rap career and what keeps him motivated.

The rapper reminisces when they shared the cover of Vanity Fair's 2001 Music Issue, recalling: "We were just beginning to try to date each other. Well, you know, you've got to try first. You got to dazzle ... wine and dine."

However it seems the couple are deeply in love now and their relationship has definitely grown with the birth of their daughter Blue-Ivy back in 2012.

The pair secretly wed in April 2008 however Beyoncé would have still dated him even if he wasn't famous so long as he remained cool.

"If I'm as cool as I am, yes. But she's a charming Southern girl, you know, she's not impressed ... But I would have definitely had to be this cool," he told VF.

Jay Z claims his wife - who has always had a good girl image, starting when she was a member of Destiny's Child - has been influenced by his lifestyle, jokingly saying "she's gangsta now".

The Roc Nation boss recently questioned Forbes magazine's claims that he has an estimated net worth of $500 million. The 'Magna Carter Holy Grail' singer claims he would rather stay silent on his fortune.

He said: "I'm not motivated by that ... I don't sit around with my friends and talk about money, ever. On a record, that's different."

The couple first started dating in 2001 and in November's issue of Vanity Fair, the rapper even addressed the controversy surrounding Beyoncé's pregnancy and rumors that she gave birth via surrogate.

"It's just so stupid," he said. "You know, I felt dismissive about it, but you've got to feel for her. I mean, we've got a really charmed life, so how can we complain? But when you think about it, we're still human beings."
