Willow Smith Debuts New Song Clip, '21st Century Girl'

By Zach Dionne Posted Jan 24th 2011 02:16PM

'Whip My Hair' had its day in the sun, and it was glorious. Moving on, Willow Smith is ready to release a new single and video for '21st Century Girl,' which the 10-year-old star says is going to make people dance.

"Hey people I am so excited for my next single!! Are you?" Willow wrote on Facebook. "It's a dance record. I know you love to dance, don't cha'..."

Rap-Up.com snagged a few photos of Willow filming the clip in Palmdale, Calif., over the weekend, wearing wild outfits on set with her mother, Jada.

Hear 16 seconds of the new song -- what sounds like another imminently catchy, grooving refrain containing more positive, fun-loving Willow sentiments -- here:

A longer clip, featuring behind-the-scenes footage of Willow dancing to '21st Century Girl' on the set of the video, is floating around the internet and available on PopEater's Tumblr.

Willow has been hyping the unannounced release of her debut album on Twitter and Facebook lately:

Is that rhetorical, Willow? Of course we're excited.

What a nice post. Willow Smith is my idol in the sense of singing. It’s good to hear that she will be having her new album. She’s so excited for her new single and I am excited about it as well. I would have to inform my friends about it. For sure they will go to watch out for it. Hope it’ll be out in the market soon. Thanks for posting.

She dresses like a little boy. Her hair style looks likes something a older woman would wear.

Hey, Willow, take those jug-ears and that wig-hat and go away for a few years.

Hey Will & Jada, stop whoring your kids out to the entertainment industry. After all, neither one of them has any talent. And how vain must you two be to name your children after yourselves.

Ha-ha-ha! That is SO TRUE! I could not agree more!Stop whoring out your no-talent, gender-confused little clones! And the 'nameing them after themselves"? That is so right; Will=willow, Jada= jayden? OMG, U R RIGHT, HOW NARCISSISTIC IS THAT? HAHAHAHA...

Ugly with no talent but daddy's money will make her a star.

Damn she looks like her dad....

Kinda like Taylor Swift live at the grammy's huh? Bet you thought that was just "awesome". You idiots slay me. Would you like her better if she were blonde haired. blue eyed and lip synching like Britney. Yeah, thought so. Log off. Now.

Yes, we would.And then we would be happy, 'cos Taylor Swift actually is pretty, and has lots of TALENT. SO, u r right, if she were even half of what Taylor Swift is, we'd like her. Good point.

By For Realz

Seriously I didnt really like her but after reading all this crap that you guys have said I really like her becuase someone has to have a lot of courage to put up with this stuff that people are saying about her. She's just a nine year old girl who has parents that dont care how she acts. If you dont like her and all you want to do is put her down then go look at something else FOR REALZ PEOPLE its hard enough being a girl dont make it harder for her!!!!

We hear u, and we don't care. 'Cos u miss the point: Willow is being talked about here, and everywhere, because HER PARENTS ARE WANTING THAT! THEY ARE THE ISSUE HERE, THEY ARE CRAMMING THESE KIDS DOWN PEOPLES THROATS, THEY ARE PIMPING THEIR KIDS OUT, PERIOD. AND THEY HAVE NO TALENT, DOUBLE PERIOD. Just because you got money (will&jada have PLENTY), DOESN'T mean you got talent, nor the right to shove it in everyone's face. That's what people are saying. Bottom line is: if they are going to subject their kids to this, then that's the cost they'll have to pay. Deal with it.

By Susan

I think Willow is MUCH TOO YOUNG to deal with all the fame, even with her parents' watching over her. She is talented so why not wait until she is at least a teen before throwing her out there in the spotlight? I agree that Will and Jada may be making a big mistake by allowing their children to enter show business at such a young age as they all have. I hope that Willow doesn't crash and burn as she gets a little older.

By Wendy

Another rich child with an attitude problem whose talent probably doesn't match the level of attitude. Must be rough!

A person isn't excited FOR an object or thing...you're excited
ABOUT it...it's called English language...Isn't our little Willow being educated? :-)..oh and Yes Willow, I'm so excited and I just can't hide it. I'm about to lose control and I think I like it...lol

By maryhadalittlelamb

I hate to be mean, and not that it matters, but is it me? or is that doo she's sporting kind of reminiscent of Mo from the Three Stooges...anybody?

By Wtfhe saidthat

Her music is crap . Beiber , Gaga , Perry , Kesha all overproduced crap for tweens with a tin ear .

By Sequoia

When I saw what the song was titled I instantly thought of Green Day...

I'm tired of the Smiths.
I still in a way like Will Smith because honestly he is a good actor but I'm sick of their kids. Willow sucks at music and Jaeden sucks at acting. Kids should act like kids and kids now-a-days are acting like their in their twentys or late-teens.

By Allie

I think its great that the children are having fun and doing what they want to do. I'm sure if they decide not to continue to perform they won't be forced to. Will's oldest son Trey started off appearing in videos with Will Smith and then he decided he wanted nothing to do with the business and so he doesn't. Stop being so jealous of this family and support them. We could very well read that one of the Smith children are going to rehab for their drug addiction. I pray that never happens as they seem to have a good support with their parents. And for those of you saying that Willow is ugly, that is absolutely terrible to say about a little girl. She is only like 9 or 10 years old, I'm sure many of us if we look back at our pictures at that age didn't like the way we looked either. This is her transition period. She is going to be a very beautiful young lady and I love that she is confident in herself, too often young black children are not. Support positivity and frown on all the negativity that is being dished out by the so called adults that can't resist reading about children they claim to dislike so much.
