Jay-Z’s discussion of his mother’s s3xuality in the single, which was a highly personal song, attracted an initial reluctance from her.

The mother and son, however, spoke in-depth about it.

She eventually agreed after Jay-Z allayed her concerns and contributed a poem she had written that was incorporated into the song.

In the song, Jay-Z established support for their matriarch stating: “Mama had four kids, but she’s a lesbian/Had to pretend so long that she’s a thespian/Had to hide in the closet, so she medicates/Society shame and the pain was too much to take,” he rapped.

“Cried tears of joy when you fell in love/Don’t matter to me if it’s a him or her/I just wanna see you smile through all the hate/Marie Antoinette, baby, let ’em eat cake.”

Jay-Z noted revelation and proceeding events transformed the dynamics of their relationship and made their bond stronger.

During an appearance on “The Shop: Uninterrupted,” he revealed, “When she first heard that song, she got super defensive… We talked through it. And then, when she flew back to L.A., she had written a poem. She wrote that on the plane. It came with the American Airlines notepad… I was like, ‘You got bars, ma!’” 

Gloria Carter began dating Wilshire in 2018, and five years later, they tied the knot in front of family and friends.
