Jay Z looks very dapper on the cover of Vanity Fair's November issue, in which he discusses his rags-to-riches journey from teenage drug dealer to business magnate -- recently topping Forbes' list of the richest celebrity couples, alongside his equally fabulous wife, Beyonce.
“I know about budgets. I was a drug dealer,” he said of his early life in Brooklyn.
Hova also said his mother knew he was dealing crack as a teenager, but "All the mothers knew. It sounds like ‘How could you let your son . . . ’ but I’m telling you, it was normal.”
Though the 43-year-old rapper and mogul admitted to living a "charmed life" with Beyonce and Blue Ivy, rumors -- like the one that Beyonce used a surrogate to deliver their daughter -- still affect the family.
As for Blue Ivy's future in the music biz, she's already a fan of her father's latest album, "Magna Carta Holy Grail."
