The Internet has been blowing up with reports that Jay-Z has vowed to stop using the B-word in his lyrics. (And no, we aren't talking about Beyonce.) But did he really make such a statement?
Bing: Jay-Z's music
These reports stem from an alleged poem (or song, depending on which site you look at) that popped up online last week, after the Jan. 7 birth of his daughter with Beyonce, Blue Ivy Carter. NME's report on Monday caused the story to gain traction.
This poem goes: "Before I got in the game, made a change, and got rich/I didn't think hard about using the word b----/I rapped, I flipped it, I sold it, I lived it/Now with my daughter in this world I curse those that give it. ... I never realized while on the fast track that I'd give riddance to the word b----/To leave her innocence in tact/No man will degrade her, or call her name/I'm so focused on your future, the degradation has passed. ... I wish you wealth, health and insight/Forever young you may pass/Blue Ivy Carter, my angel."

But a source close to the rapper's camp told E! News on Tuesday that the poem people keep talking about isn't from Jay-Z. No word on how the lyrics made it online and became attributed to the rap mogul.
Last week, Jay-Z did post a song about his new daughter, "Glory," on his site, Life + Times.
who really cares...
to me bitch has never been a bad word!!!
look back at the 70s when ej had "the bitch is back".
then rs had "ain't love a bitch".
it wasn't the 97 hit "bitch" by mb did it get sensored....i can still remember it being in the paper as (expletitive) by mb....LOL
what he and every other BLACK artist needs to do is stop using NI**AR.....it's funny how they can call themselves that...but no one else can......but then again...that is what they ARE!!!
