Jay-Z is opting to do something not too many rappers can ever say they have: stop using the word b---h!

"Before I got in the game, made a change, and got rich/I didn?t think hard about using the word b---h," he wrote. "I rapped, I flipped it, I sold it, I lived it/Now with my daughter in this world I curse those that give it."

The poem was released a week after he gave the world Glory, a song which featured baby Blue's first sounds and earned her a spot in Billboard history. Jay is certainly taking this parenting thing seriously and his devotion is capturing everyone's attention.

"No man will degrade her, or call her names," Jay-Z continues in his poem to Blue Ivy. "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."

It looks as though parenthood has helped the hip hop star to turn a new leaf and judging by these heartfelt gestures, Jay-Z's going to be a great dad. I wonder how many other rappers are going to follow suit?
