Grimes Baby Is Going To Have A Wild 2021 | HuffPost Parents

Few babies will have had as wild a first year as Grimes and Elon Musks son. His name alone launched a thousand Twitter jokes (and a brief legal spat ), pronunciation guides , and won him the title of top baby name search of the year . Even for those who still cant pronounce it, his very existence is currently shorthand for lighthearted punchlines; I cant count how many times this year Ive heard people blame X A-Xii for technical difficulties on video calls or reference him when encountering a cryptic meme.

Nicknamed Little X by his musician mom and SpaceX founder dad, its fair to say that the one-year-olds family is unlikely to fade from the public eye anytime soon. Heres how we see 2021 faring for X A-Xii, based on what happened in 2020:

Hell be a musical muse for Grimes

Grimes pregnancy was a major influence on her latest album , even leading the artist to develop an infant persona to serve as a mascot. Her most recent release is an ambient track specifically composed for her little ones bedtime routine.

Unsatisfied with white noise machines, Grimes created AI Lullaby for Little X, with support from Endel, an artificial intelligence company.
