While her father Will Smith rocks in the movies, his youngest child, Willow Smith, is rocking the world of music. Following her own passion, the singer has seen the sweet success of her handwork. Although she began her career in acting, she is known today for experimenting with her music and launching several albums like ‘Ardipithecus’,  ‘<Copingmechanism>,’ Lately I Feel Everything’, and many more. At 22, the artist has now etched her work in the minds of music fans.

The artist often takes to Instagram to share engaging content, with her performing in most of it. One of the most recent ones had her playing ‘Outlier’ by the Grammy-winning fusion band Snarky Puppy. Showing off her new hairstyle and skills, she tagged the band and played it on her trippy white guitar. The song was released by the band in 2014 for the album We Like It Here.

Today she has millions of followers, but her videos majorly gained momentum through the TikTok era. The artist has been focusing on making her own music. Taking those steps forward, the artist also performed at this year’s Coachella alongside her brother Jaden leaving their father proud.
