Blue Ivy freestyles in leaked clip, fans declare her the new princess of rap
You heard it here first: Blue Ivy is destined to be a rap superstar and this alleged leaked recording of her free-styling on Jay-Z's just-dropped "4:44" album is all the proof you need.
Of course, genetics were already on her side. She's fortunate enough to call two of the most talented musicians in the world mom and dad.
But, what if this magical jackpot of genes results in a songstress slash rapper even more talented than Bey and Jay?
Leaked audio clips of Blue's freestyle rap were being circulated on Twitter on Friday morning just after Jay dropped his surprise new album, which is available for streaming everywhere except Spotify. The leaked audio clip comes from the track "Blue’s Freestyle / We Family," one of three bonus tracks available on the physical copies of the album.
Here's Blue showing us how it's done:

Just a quick reminder that Blue is five years old. FIVE.
Social media was basically in a state of meltdown today, and frankly, we totally get it.
"PRINCESS OF RAP IS COMING," wrote one astounded Twitter user.
