Which Rapper Is Writing For Willow Smith?

13 years ago view-show 583,605

So yesterday Soulja Boy tried to pretend that he wrote Willow Smith’s, whip my hair.  However, Skillz recently told BET that Will Smith reached out himself to the Virginia spitter to pen some lyrics for his daughter.

  • BET.com: What else are you working on?

    Skillz: I put an album out. “The World Needs More Skillz” came out October 27. We’re about to shoot the second video for that. I got a Travis Barker remix, the cut that I’m about to release, I got a couple of new videos. I did this movie last year. Me and Jazzy Jeff are collaborating on an album this year. I’m still hosting parties, working on songs. We’re working on some stuff for Willow Smith’s album.

    BET.com: How did that come about?

    Skillz: I mean, you know, I worked with her dad [Will Smith] on a few projects before so you know I have a relationship with him. It was just a natural progression like they’re doing music so, you know, that door’s always open. I’d be crazy not to try to walk through it, so we’re working on some stuff. Her Roc Nation debut will be out probably next year.

    BET.com: What’s it like writing from the perspective of a 10-year-old girl?

    Skillz: I mean, I can write for anybody. It’s just stepping outside of yourself, looking at the market and realize on what’s missing and try to fill that void. We all throw darts, sometimes they stick, sometimes they don’t. But, you know, you keep going.

BET also catches up on his recent rap up and those of years past.

A mere day after his 14-year-old sister Willow dropped a brand new track featuring SZA, Jaden Smith returns the favor with a new album. Entitled CTV2, Jaden has made the entire project available via his very own music app. While the project is a brief eight tracks one particular track "Let It Breathe" clocks in at over ten minutes. Needless to say Jaden continues his reputation as a stream-of-consciousness, liberated spirit on the project (see previous releases like "Trophy" and "Melancholy" for reference). Listen after the jump.

New Music: Willow Smith – “Female Energy” (Freestyle)

9 years ago view-show 5,178,294

Judging strictly by her new track Willow Smith appears to be following in the creative footsteps of her older brother, Jaden. You may recall the recent transformation, of sorts, young Jaden has miraculously gone under. He's finding his voice in the music world, releasing strange and uniquely perplexing rap songs. From his cut "Trophy" to spitting morose bars over Pink Floyd's "Melancholy" the kid's got an interesting perspective on the world. So Willow is taking some notes, releasing "Female Energy", a freestyle that is equal balance introspective track and brilliantly imaginative songwriting. She just sounds so free on the song. Oh, and she's 13-years-old. Listen for yourself after the jump.

Damn son, where'd you find this?! Jaden Smith continues his streak of delivering that heat with a video for "Fast". You may recall us posting the Jaden Smith track "Trophy" a week back, which was a surprisingly dope track from the 16-year-old actor turned rapper. In "Fast" we find Jaden Smith turning up in a parking lot and in the streets, furthermore showcasing his unrelenting carefree attitude. The track, you ask? It's got a banging beat and Jaden spits with a Migos-esque flow. Take that for what you will. Watch the video after the jump.
