Blue Ivy Carter, daughter of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, has won her very first Grammy Award.
The 9-year-old was featured in Beyoncé's "Brown Skin Girl," which was named best music video at the 2021 Grammy Awards. A rich blend of R&B and Afrobeat, "Brown Skin Girl" also features verses by American-Guyanese MC Saint Jhn and Nigerian singer Wizkid. The song was originally released in the original motion picture soundtrack for the 2019 film "The Lion King: The Gift," then adapted into an excerpt from Beyoncé's 2020 film, "Black Is King."
Directed by Beyoncé and Jenn Nkiru, the video opens with Blue Ivy and Beyoncé playing a game of patty-cake in the bayou before joining a number of distinguished Black women in a sumptuous ball. The clip features celebrity cameos by actress Lupita Nyong'o, model Naomi Campbell and former Destiny's Child member Kelly Rowland; Beyoncé's mother, Tina Knowles-Lawson, and Beyoncé's youngest daughter, Rumi Carter, make appearances as well.

Beyoncé received nine nominations in 2021, including for song and record of the year. In the latter category, she is nominated for "Black Parade" and for "Savage (Remix)," with fellow Houstonian Megan Thee Stallion.
Per new data from 2 million Reelgood users, a streaming guide that allows its users to access its streaming services in one place, Billie Eilish's The World's A Little Blurry could not overthrow the "Crazy In Love" singer with her summer hit, Black Is King. However, the new Apple TV+ movie did score the No. 2 spot, outranking Taylor Swift, Blackpink and Ariana Grande in the top 5 music documentaries across all streaming services.
The leading contender of the night snagged four honors throughout the awards show to break the record.
Beyoncé made history during the 2021 Grammy Awards by breaking the all-time record of most Grammy wins ever by a female artist.
By winning for best R&B performance for "Black Parade," Beyoncé achieved her 28th Grammy Award, surpassing Alison Krauss who'd previously held the record with 27 Grammys.
The leading contender of the night with nine nominations, the superstar singer snagged two honors early during the pre-ceremony — best rap performance for "Savage" with Megan Thee Stallion and best music video for "Brown Skin Girl." Beyoncé's daughter Blue Ivy Carter made history as well with their "Brown Skin Girl" win by becoming the second youngest person to win a Grammy at 9 years old.
Later in the evening, Beyoncé won best R&B performance for "Black Parade" and best rap song for "Savage" along with Megan Thee Stallion.
When accepting her award for best R&B performance, Beyoncé said "As an artist, I believe it's my job and all of our jobs to reflect the times. And it's been such a difficult time. I wanted to uplift, encourage and celebrate all of the beautiful Black queens and kings that inspire me and the whole world."
Last summer was major for the award-winning singer, with the Juneteenth release of "Black Parade," her work with Megan Thee Stallion on the "Savage" remix and her Black Is King film
When Beyoncé landed nine nominations for this year's Grammy Awards, she became the most nominated female artist in Grammy history with 79 nods over the course of her career. She is currently tied with Paul McCartney as the second-most-nominated artist of all time, behind Jay-Z, who received three nominations this year, and Quincy Jones, who each have been nominated 80 times.
Beyoncé released "Black Parade" on Juneteenth, the day that commemorates the end of slavery in the U.S. On the song, she sings about returning to the "motherland" and reminds herself that she can't forget about her history. All proceeds from the song go to BeyGOOD's Black Business Impact Fund, which benefits Black-owned businesses in need. Along with its release, Beyoncé unveiled a Black Parade digital platform, directing people to Black-owned businesses.
In addition to "Black Parade," which has four nominations, Beyoncé is up for best music film for her Disney+ summer release Black Is King and best music video for "Brown Skin Girl." She also has three nods for her work with Megan Thee Stallion for "Savage." Both "Black Parade" and "Savage" are up for record of the year.
Hosted by Trevor Noah, the ceremony was held at the Los Angeles Convention Center and broadcast live on CBS and Paramount+.

It was Beyoncé's Grammys, and we just lived it: Leading the pack with the most Grammy wins at four, the singer also became the female artist with the most Grammys ever, with her 28th win (plus one for daughter Blue Ivy Carter). In other, non-Beyoncé news, Taylor Swift won Album of the Year, and the Recording Academy awarded their darling Billie Eilish the Record of the Year award. The Black Lives Matter movement was honored with a performance by Lil Baby and a film about Beyoncé's "Black Parade," and Megan Thee Stallion was left speechless by her Best New Artist win.
