Blue Ivy Carter Youngest Person Ever to Hit Billboard Charts

Jay-Z knows how to make a hit.

Babble’s John Cave Osborne may hate Jay-Z’s song, “Glory,” but it looks like he’s one of the few. The song celebrating his daughter Blue Ivy Carter’s birth is set to debut on the Billboard charts at number 74, making Beyonce’s baby the youngest person ever to accomplish such a thing. For crying.

The Associated Press reports, “Billboard says that thanks to her dad, Jay-Z, featuring her on his new song, “Glory,” Blue becomes the youngest person to ever appear on its chart.” Ridiculous that she gets credited? Yes. But Jay-Z probably knew what he was doing when he listed her on the track as a performer. “Featuring B.I.C.” Huh. Amazing.

At JCO Multiplied, John jokes:

Bad ass little Hov
Two years old shopping on Savile Row
Wicked ass little B
Hard not to spoil you rotten looking like little me.

Wait. Did he just call her “rotten-looking”?

Ha! The power of a hyphen, my friends! Anyway, I’m gonna go record myself crying and see what happens to my career! Bye!

Blech. Don’t like it either. Also not going to cause a penny in royalties for his pockets.
