Little Willow Smith can ride on her parents names. Sure thing. Daddy got the contacts, Uncle J can make it real. Good or bad Princess got it in the bag.
The 9 year old’s “Whip My Hair” is her first shot at a big career.
I dont like children they annoy me. I dont find them cute, Im not a fan at all. I have one yeah, but shes mine, its different.
So.. I go into this with nothing but disgust. Children should be seen and not heard.
” I whip my hair back and forth” begins the chant and ask anyone if you want to piss me off clap or chant. So already Im in hate.
Until Willow sings. What a beautiful and mature voice for a kid. The photo montage in the video show a spunky thing with not too much attitude, I appreciate that cuz if she were trying to look like a bad ass toughy I would not hold back to be kind.
So as we skip by the annoying chorus to the acutal verses. I am absolutely jaw dropped stunned. Shes being compared to Rhianna? Shes got more purity and clarity.
So, yeah the lyrics are rather lame- but this song is going to be sung into thousands of hairbrushes by thousands of little girls.
Do I love it? No.
Do I hate it? No.
Do I think Willow Smith doesnt need to ride on her parents and their connections for musical success? Yes.
Shes fantastically talented. Now go to bed.
