Jay-Z Just Revealed Whether His Kids With Beyoncé Want to Be Singers Like Their Mom

Following in their footsteps. Do Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s kids want to be musicians like their parents? It’s too soon to tell, but what their parents know is that they’ll support them no matter what they want to do in the future.

In an interview with The Sunday Times on Sunday, April 25, Jay-Z opened up about his and Beyoncé’s three children—9-year-old daughter Blue Ivy and 3-year-old twins Rumi and Sir—and the couple’s approach to parenting. “Feeling loved is the most important thing a child needs, you know?” he said. “Not ‘Here’s this business that I’m going to hand over to you, that I’m creating for you.'”

Jay-Z went on to reveal that he’ll support his children whether or not they want to pursue a music career like their parents. “What if my child doesn’t want to be in music or sports?” he said. “I have no idea, right? But as long as your child feels supported, and feels loved, I think anything is possible.”

He continued, “[The goal is to] just make sure we provide a loving environment, be very attentive to who they want to be. It’s easy for us, as human beings, to want our children to do certain things, but we have no idea. We’re just guides.”
