Photo: Jada Pinkett Smith & Willow Smith [We’ve listed one here!] By Lisa Respers France, CNN, You can whip your hair back and forth in disbelief, but it’s true: Willow is about to drop her sixth album. [The full article is entitled “‘Bling Empire’ is still shining in its third season”.]

That’s right — if you factor in her collaborative album with Tyler Cole, “The Anxiety,” which gave us the earworm “Meet Me at Our Spot,” the daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith has an expansive discography to her name.

Her latest, “Coping Mechanism,” has the 21-year-old continuing to perform — and excel — in musical genres not everyone expected her to pursue after her 2010 megahit.

“Rock has always been inspiring to me,” she told Guitar.com, citing the alt-metal band Deftones and heavy metal group Lamb of God as examples. “I think that when you start doing something at such a young age, your mind is still growing in a lot of different ways. Then you grow up and you understand (that) you need to really apply yourself in a way that you might not have thought of.”

“Coping Mechanism” is out now.

[Editor’s note: Willow appeared on Saturday Night Live on 10/08/22. She was actually quite good and played a mean electric guitar duet with her guitarist!]
