\"WILLOW_SMITH_455384561.jpg\"<\/p>\n

September 9, 2010 – We get it, Will Smith! You’re talented. Your wife’s talented. Your kids are talented. Enough already!<\/p>\n

But just in case that fact slipped your mind, here comes Willow Smith, with nine whole years to her name, to remind you again, as her debut hip-hop single “Whip My Hair<\/a>” has made its way online.<\/p>\n

So, what’s the verdict? First of all, forget her style, Willow might just be stealing Rihanna’s voice. And second of all…<\/p>\n

\"willow_766540146.jpg\"It’s age-appropriate! Which is commendable as it’s got to be a bit of a battle finding material suitable for someone still in the single-digits. With a Mohawk. And superstar parents. (Though we do wonder what kind of “swagger” and “haters” a nine-year-old faces, nevermind who constitutes her “ladies.”)<\/p>\n

Plus, it’s good, which at this point can only be considered a bonus, seeing as how a recording contract is all but in the mail for the budding and well-connected young talent, who at least on this song seems equal parts RiRi and Keri Hilson. But, you know, the fourth-grade version.<\/p>\n

There’s no word on a release date, but mama Jada Pinkett Smith revealed on Lopez Tonight earlier this summer that her daughter was already working on an album.<\/p>\n

See? Sometimes parents just do understand. We can’t wait for that dad-featuring remix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
