Jay Z: ‘I spent my whole life to repay my mother, she was the one who supported me to marry Beyonce before my father prevented’
On December 4, 1969, Gloria Carter and Adnis “AJ” Reeves welcomed JAY-Z into the world.
The Brooklyn native is very close to his mother because they grew up together after their father abandoned them when they were little. JAY-Z has spoken openly about his connections with each of his parents in interviews in addition to singing about them in his songs.
Actually, a song named for his father was included in the Grammy Award-winning artist’s 13th studio album, 4:44, released in June 2017. The song is a message written to his father, who died of liver failure in June 2003.
Jay-Z has been open about how, after his father left, he changed his feelings toward him from hatred to respect. Furthermore, he has leveraged his personal challenges as a platform to support others going through a similar ordeal.
“I would love to have that conversation with our generation and all the people who didn’t know their parents from the beginning, whether you knew them or not, so you could let that kind of anger go, because that’s the kind of anger that keeps you from love,” Jay-Z said in a 2015 podcast.
Because you never want to experience that sense of hurt or abandonment, it causes you to build walls and keep people at a distance from you.
Jay Z Gifted House for Mom Replica of Disney’s Iconic Haunted Mansion\

It appears that more than just two successful motion pictures were influenced by Disney’s legendary Haunted Mansion ride. It was also the muse for a residence located just outside of Atlanta. The doppelgänger home is a near-exact replica of the exterior of the notable attraction, and it’s now for sale for $2.2 million.
According to the home’s listed agent, Gail Laney of RE/MAX Around Atlanta, “Mark Hurt was a contractor for the Disney Company.” “His father worked as an animator for Walt Disney, so he was a big Disney fan growing up.” When building the property, Hurt got permission to access the original plans of the Haunted Mansion home, which is located in Disneyland in California, in order to match his house to the architecture and proportions of the ride. The upper and lower galleries feature elaborate cast iron, one of the most recognizable elements of the original, which Hurst had forged in the same foundry that worked on the Haunted Mansion ride. The current sellers are looking to downsize now that their children have grown up
Even if it’s not haunted, the house is nonetheless a mansion by most accounts. With ten thousand square feet, the property has six bedrooms and six bathrooms. The main bedroom has two spacious walk-in closets, a kitchenette, and a separate terrace. Along with a chef’s kitchen, butler’s pantry, and grilling deck on the main level, there is also a complete bar, pool table, poker room, and media space in the basement. Above the garage is an unfinished flat with room for customization for its new owners.
The property is situated in Duluth, Georgia’s Sweet Bottom Plantation, a gated enclave that bills itself as a “neighborhood of historically inspired residences.” Numerous residences draw inspiration from the Greek-revival, Colonial, and Creole architecture prevalent in places like Savannah, New Orleans, and Charleston. Hurst was given permission by the Sweet Bottom developer to construct the house there because it was a perfect fit for the neighborhood’s New Orleans neighborhood, according to Laney. Access to a variety of neighborhood features, such as a playground, pickleball court, tennis courts, and clubhouse, is provided by neighborhood living.
