Rapper Jay-Z has played down rumors he and wife Beyonce Knowles are ready to start a family, insisting children have no place in their plans for the immediate future.

The superstars, who were this week voted the first couple of African-American entertainment by Giant magazine, celebrated their first wedding anniversary in April, and gossips are already speculating about when Beyonce will get pregnant.

But the "Big Pimpin'" hitmaker has brushed off the baby talk - insisting they will continue to build up their fortunes by touring and recording music for another few years before turning their attentions to family life.

He says, "We got to keep it moving. Got bills to pay."

Jay-Z is currently touring the U.S. in preparation for the September release of his new album "The Blueprint 3," while Beyonce has just wrapped the European leg of her "I Am..." worldwide tour and will kick off the U.S. jaunt on June 21.
