Rumi’s big moment came from her part in the song “Protector” on her mom’s newly released album “Cowboy Carter.” The song hit No. 42 on the chart, thanks to it being streamed over 11.3 million times in just one week.
In “Protector,” you can hear Rumi sweetly asking her mom, “Can I hear the lullaby? Please?” This part has made the song very special for many listeners and shows how Beyoncé mixes her family life with her music every once in a while.

However, not everyone thinks it’s a good idea for celebrity kids like Rumi to be in the spotlight at such a young age. “Kids can’t even be kids anymore smh,” expressed one social media user.
