Beyonce’s Daughter Blue Ivy Earns Her First Songwriting Award
On the track, Blue Ivy sang about the importance of accepting yourself. “Brown skin girl / Your skin just like pearls /The best thing in the world / Never trade you for anybody else / Singin' brown skin girl / Your skin just like pearls / The best thing in the world/ I never trade you for anybody else,” Blue Ivy sang alongside SAINTt JHN, 28.
This isn’t the first time that fans have had the chance to hear Blue Ivy sing. Back in April 2019, Beyoncé’s Netflix documentary, Homecoming, showcased Blue Ivy singing “Lift Every Voice And Sing” as Beyoncé helped her with the lyrics.
In addition to her help with songwriting on the soundtrack, Blue Ivy also appeared in her mother’s visual “Spirit.” In the four-minute music video, which was shot in the Grand Canyon, Blue Ivy posed in front of the camera as Beyoncé attacked her choreography flawlessly.

While making the visual, Beyoncé revealed that she wanted to highlight nature’s beauty. "The concept of the video is to show how God is the painter and natural beauty in nature needs no art direction," she said during an interview. "It's the beauty of color, the beauty of melanin, the beauty of tradition." Beyoncé also explained that Africa inspired her. "It was important that we weren't just inspired by Africa but that we actually included and learned from the motherland."
At the time, Beyoncé admitted that she was excited for her kids to see her role in The Lion King. “I'm so excited for my kids to see it, but it means even more to share this experience and this culture of The Lion King with my mother and my family," Beyoncé said.
In addition to Blue, Beyoncé and Jay-Z are also parents to twins Rumi and Sir Carter.
