Glory - Jay-Z feat. Blue Ivy Carter
1 play 1 play [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

New Yorker curated a playlist — Pop Songs About Parental Joy — in light of the weekend’s news that “Jay-Z and Beyoncé welcomed their first child, a daughter named Blue Ivy.”

Streaming here is Jay-Z’s just-released track “Glory,” which celebrates her birth and features her cries.

I’d like to add a couple songs to their list:

Stay Up Late by Talking Heads

Cailin by Unwritten Law
