According to Billboard, since proud dad Jay-Z released his song “Glory” on Monday, it’s already entered the R&B/Hip-Hop songs chart at No. 74.

(If you’re wondering how Blue beat Stevie Wonder’s daughter Aisha, whose first cries can be heard on Wonder’s “Isn’t She Lovely,” Billboard notes that Aisha was never credited, and the song didn’t reach a chart until 1977, two years following her birth.)

Jay-Z’s touching tribute to his “greatest creation” not only revealed his joy at welcoming his daughter into the world, but also reflected on the superstar couple’s previous attempts at conception that ended in miscarriage.

“Last time the miscarriage was so tragic, we was afraid you disappeared,” he said in a verse, “but nah, baby, you magic.”
