Having Beyoncé and Jay-Z as parents, there was always a pretty good chance that the couple’s eldest daughter, Blue Ivy, would have some kind of musical ability, and that would seem to be the case.

In an interview with British GQ, Jay-Z has revealed that as well as being a singer, actress and dancer, 14-year-old Blue Ivy has also been developing her piano chops.
