Yesterday, (October 18) Willow Smith, daughter of rapper/actor Will Smith and actor Jada Pinkett Smith, (as if you didn't already know) debuted her video for the catchy hit song “Whip my Hair” – and we must say, the nine-year-old brought it!

The video starts off with Willow entering a whitewashed lunchroom. She sets down her boom-box, presses play, then the whipping began. As her song starts to play she whips her head – clad with extremely long braids – dangerously fast in circular motions, spewing color into the otherwise dull atmosphere. Throughout the video young Smith rocks different outlandish hairstyles while she dances and spreads color all over the school. Big brother Jaden Smith made a cameo in the video and showed us some dance moves of his own. We must admit, we were expecting something a little cheesy but the video fits perfectly with the message of the song: let loose, have fun, “shake the haters off”, and do it while looking like a diva!
Smith's career is moving right along. At a mere nine-years-old she is already signed to Jay Z's – arguably the best rapper of all time – Roc Nation, she has that natural killer swag that usually takes decades to perfect, an uncanny sense of fashion and her ace in the hole: the support of Justin Bieber. He tweeted his support for his “lil sis”:
“heard my lil sis Willow Smith video is coming out tonight. its CRAZY!! keep a look out for it”
We have no doubt that Willow will have continued success and we'll be looking out for the second single! Meanwhile, we will tune in for her debut performance in front of a live audience on “Ellen” November 2.
Does Willow's video make you wanna whip your hair? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3!
