We all knew it would happen one day.

After clearly signalling his intent with movies like Men In Black and Independence Day (and probably others – what was Bad Boys II about? Did anybody even see it?), there’s not a person on this earth who wasn’t fully aware that “Turncoat” Will Smith had managed to breed with them and it was only a matter of time before his alien offspring descended on this planet to finish us off.

Damn it all, we just didn’t expect it to be this soon.

9-year-old Willow Smith… honestly, it’s one thing a father naming his son after himself – it’s a long established tradition – but a father naming his daughter after himself is plain weird, “alien” even. Anyway, 9-year-old Willow Smith has unleashed her first I Am Legend-sized virus on the world in the form of ‘Whip My Hair,’ a Rihanna-inspired number that’s been around all of 5 minutes but is never, ever going to go away. So get used to it.

Seriously, she’s 9. Her neck hasn’t even fully developed yet. This song is dangerous.

Here’s the video – you’re not going to be able to avoid it so you might as well just get it over with now.





Curse.

Very fugazi, Bad brains era punk-esque. A great social critisism. The whipping of hair is clearly an expression of one standing up to our captialist society. Bad ass the the extreme. Can't wait for a full album.

I listened to some jada pinkett smith, and I conclude she IS bad enough at music to create this hellspawn of a daughter

To be honest if this stays in the realm of kidz radio then i'll be ok. If this hits top 40 then yea it be a little ridiculous

I'd like to quote Alexisonfire on behalf of society:

"Maybe music isn't dead. Maybe we all just forgot what it fucking sounded like."

I'd already heard this from my roommate quite a while back. I didn't think it would catch on. Then he mentioned that it was Will Smith's daughter. I became terrified.

P.S.: I'm actually down with some of Will Smith's music. Not all of it mind you, but still.

I heard this on the radio last night, and almost drove into a building intentionally. I thought for a second the world had ended. Thankfully I switched to my CD player just in time which had Swallow The Sun in.

Song is just another sign that the demise of Western Civilization is imminent. Song sucks pretty hard but doesn't mean he or his family are aliens.

couldwinarabbit deserves a 1000% objectivity rating for analyzing this song. Either that or we take his man card and kick him off the site. Your decision guys. :)
