As you've probably already heard, Beyoncé gave birth to her baby daughter Blue Ivy Carter on Saturday evening. Happy father Jay-Z wasted no time recording a song for his baby daughter, and it's an incredibly touching track. Produced by the Neptunes (complete with cooing Pharrell vocals), Jay-Z has rarely sounded so sweet, vulnerable and intimate. It even includes Blue Ivy's first cries. Stream this, and maybe even tear up a bit.

The Noise: Kanye, Jay & Nicki bring the Ruckus to the Angels
Kanye West and Jay-Z appear to be having the time of the lives performing the best track off of Watch the Throne, "Niggas in Paris," at the Victoria's Secret fashion show. A radiantly pregnant Beyoncé was in attendance.
Also, hip- hop's reigning diva serenaded the Angels with her smash hit "Super Bass", and even strutted down the runway, surrounded by sexy male dancers. Check her out after the jump.

The Noise: Jay & Kanye still fly in "Otis"
The two biggest names in rap have joined forces for Watch The Throne, and if this video is any indicator they plan to keep on boasting while driving models around in Maybachs. In that sense the Spike Jonze directed video is something of a let down, but the song is pleasant enough paying homage to that great soul man Otis Redding, and sampling probably his greatest song ("Try a Little Tenderness"). Also there's a bizarre and hilarious little cameo by Aziz Ansari.
