Jay-Z Signs Willow Smith

Good morning yall! TGIF right?! I just finished my first week of classes which wasn't so bad actually. Hope everybody else's week went well.

Exciting news! According to SingersRoom, Jay-Z has officially signed Miss Willow Smith, daughter of the legendary power couple Will and Jada Smith. Jay made the announcement Thursday morning on Ryan Seacrest's show.

"We at Roc Nation are excited to work with Willow," Jay-Z said in a statement. "She has an energy and enthusiasm about her music that is truly infectious. It's rare to find an artist with such innate talent and creativity at such a young age. Willow is about to embark on an incredible journey and we look forward to joining her as she grows in all aspects of her career."

Will and Jada are definitely supportive of Willow's career, and are excited about her being signed to Roc Nation. "After meeting with several record companies, it was clear that Jay-Z, Ty Ty, Jay Brown and the Roc Nation staff was the unquestionable choice," they said in a statement. "Their passion for Willow combined with their boundless vision and artistic integrity made Roc Nation the perfect home for our little girl."

The girl's only nine years old, but to me, is already showing that she's a star from her unique style to her musical ability. And she's under Jay too?! I know that she will take off. She has great potential, so I'm looking forward to her official debut! Listen to her song "Whip My Hair" below!



PEACE.
