Which singer became Beyoncé’s first child in January 2012?

Blue Ivy Carter was Beyoncé’s first child, born in January 2012.

Blue Ivy was born on January 7, 2012, in New York City, to Beyoncé and Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter. She is the couple’s eldest child and has appeared in selected family music and visual projects from a young age.

Her recorded contributions include a vocal appearance on Jay-Z’s song “Glory,” released shortly after her birth. She later appeared in Beyoncé’s “Brown Skin Girl,” a song from The Lion King: The Gift, and won a Grammy for her participation in its accompanying music video, making her one of the youngest Grammy winners.

Blue Ivy is sometimes confused with her younger siblings, twins Rumi and Sir Carter, who were born in 2017. The answer refers to the child’s name, not the name of a Beyoncé album or song. “Blue Ivy” is the established public name used for Beyoncé’s eldest daughter.
