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.

DON'T FORGET THAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT A CHILD. YOU SOUND LIKE A BUNCH OF BULLIES MAKING FUN OF HER CLOTHES AND HER EARS. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? I'M SURE THAT SHE IS CRYING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK!

This girl is only ten and she's wearing a weave and wigs. Stars will do anything to stay in the limelight, even use their kids. I hated whip my hair. Jada and Will get it together or call up Gary Coleman's family and talk to them. You have enough money to let this child enjoy her life.

Every time I read anything with adults attacking a child it has me shaking my head. I see a nice young lady who likes to sing whose parents happen to be in the industry. Will and Jada are not forcing their children to do anything. Incredibly you rarely see them giving interviews talking as any proud parent would. Willow and Jaeden speak for themselves.

These two children are not the first or the last of children who seem to be all over the place. Sometimes it is the parents living vicariously through the kids. It can be in entertainment, sports, politics, etc. Some were not even good at it but Nepotism allows for that.

The Kennedys
The Jacksons
The Osmonds
The Olson Twins
The Caulkin Brood
The Kardashians (Kris Jenner needs her uterus bronzed because she is a damn marketing machine. Everyone of her children is in the public from everything to food to clothes.)

These families have made millions and some are still making money. If anyone had the chance you would do the same. I never heard a parent famous or not say I will not let them act in this play so I don't seem like I am forcing them on anyone. BS, we all do it! And if they paid, double jackpot.

At the end of the day, the public still has the right to not buy the record, don't see the movie, don't go to the show of anyone you do not like. Some will hate this response, some will not, but Willow is going to be around for quite awhile. Prepare yourselves.
