Track 15 off of Jay-Z’s highly anticipated Magna Carta Holy Grail project.
He’s talking about both his biological family, the family he’s helped to create (with wife Beyoncé), and the people surrounding him that he considers to be his family, hence the mention of Emory Jones, formerly incarcerated and the topic of “Do U Wanna Ride?”
Jay positions himself as the head of all these families. He’s the main breadwinner (just) in all three. He’s helped his friends and cousins find jobs, he helped his mother cultivate the Shawn Carter Foundation, and facilitated a lavish upbringing for Blue Ivy.
