In honor of Blue Ivy, Jay-Z swears off the word "bitch"

After making little Blue Ivy the youngest person ever to be credited on the U.S. Billboard charts (for the song "Glory"), Jay-Z has written a poem to her in which he swears to never use the word "bitch" again. Here are some of Hova's couplets:
"Before I got in the game, made a change, and got rich / I didn't think hard about using the word bitch / I rapped, I flipped it, I sold it, I lived it / Now with my daughter in the world I curse those that give it."
Jay-Z goes on to say that the "degradation has passed" and that no man will demean his "angel." The poem does not specify whether terms such as "ho," "skank," and "strumpet" will be affected by the passing of said degradation.
I could point out how it's a smidgeon hypocritical to call countless other people's daughters bitches for years and then "curse those" who use the word once you have your own kid. But I'm obviously more concerned about how Jay-Z is going to rap "99 Problems" from now on. I got 99 problems and a... refined lady who deserves your respect, goddammit, ain't one? Actually, forget it, that sounds awesome.

That's the sign of an evolved motherfucker...
He has a daughter and now he realizes shit isn't right.
Jay-Z is a dumb cunt.
Yeah. Learning from one's experiences is stupid.
I'm with Buck on this one. If having a female makes you realize that demeaning women is not cool, then you're not very aware, are you?
Oh Fawkes. It's so cute when you pretend to care.
Pussy.
That Blue Ivy will probably grow up to be a spoiled bitch.
He's just ripping off Tracy Jordan.
I guess it's ok to call women bitches when you're married to one, the son or brother of one, but not the father of one...
What hypocritical ass hole.
Can't wait until she's in some phat-azz-skank video.
Now let's hope he has a gay baby next so he'll lay off the homophobia as well
There are such things as "gay babies"?
gaybies lol
So does this mean if they had a boy, he'd still be sayin Bitch?
man go change a diaper and rap about that. goddamn fool.
So, since his daughter is also black, will he stop using the N-word?
Anyhow, the bitch referred to in "99 Problems" is arguably a police dog, so maybe he can still get away with it in that context.
"We'll see how smart you are when the K9 come"/I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one
