Romano338 Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 It doesn't hear like a song of a 10 ys old kid. It could be a Rihanna's or I-don't-know-what-other-star's song. Maybe the lyrics are not because I don't understand it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gosia Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Will Smith's daughter, Willow, becoming a singing sensation, Jay-Z signs her to record label Will Smith's 9-year-old daughter is an overnight singing sensation, and she's got Jay-Z to back her. Willow Smith's first song, "Whip My Hair," started making the rounds on the Internet on Tuesday, and has quickly generated some serious buzz. The head-banging track, which is already being played on New York hip-hop radio station Hot 97, has even triggered some premature comparisons to pop superstar, Rihanna. "I whip my hair back and forth," Smith sings on the catchy chorus. Like Rihanna, Smith is getting a helping hand from Brooklyn rapper Jay-Z, who has reportedly signed her to his label, Roc Nation. It was Jay-Z who also signed Rihanna while he was president of Def Jam. Will and Jada Pinkett Smith have already seen their daughter handle the pressures of acting. She joined her father in "I Am Legend," and then with her mom in "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa." Her big brother, Jaden, 12, has also flirted with superstardom as an actor and rapper. This year, he starred in "The Karate Kid" and teamed up with Justin Bieber to rap on the song, "Never Say Never." The Twitter community also can't stop talking about Willow Smith. Beyonce's sister, Solange, took to Twitter to give the rising singer some props. "WIllow Smith make me wanna whip some haiiirrr in this house. Ummm kill em girl. Kill em!" she tweeted. Singer Jazmine Sullivan is also a fan. She tweeted, "why is "whip my hair" by willow smith my soonnnng. how dare she make me like a 9 year olds music? lolol. love it!!!"

Jin Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) I don't know why Will is signing her to Roc Nation? He can do it himself by promoting her via Overbrook. Edited September 9, 2010 by Jin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JumpinJack AJ Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Overbrook hasn't really established itself in music the way it should have. It would be the safest choice for her...but Jay-Z's label would get more attention. It certainly doesn't sound like the safer choice tho.'

Da Brakes Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Overbrook doesn't have a music division anymore! That will be one of the reasons Will didn't sign her! She is set to do big things! She is gonna get so much exposure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jin Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Jay-Z, Will Smith Comment On Willow Smith's Deal With Roc Nation Thursday, September 09, 2010 12:04 PM | 16 comments By Roman Wolfe Meebo Share Button AHH IconGet Alerts AllHipHop Radio (AllHipHop News) Jay-Z has confirmed that he has signed Will Smith's daughter Willow to a new deal on his label, Roc Nation.

I believe on big records on superstars and I think she has both." Rap runs in the family's blood. In 1985, Will Smith started off as a rapper in known as The Fresh Prince, from the streets of Philadelphia, along with his partner DJ Jazzy Jeff.
