Willow Smith is making her debut as a recording artist.

Will and Jada's nine-year-old daughter has signed a deal with Jay-Z's label, Roc Nation.

Her first song, called Whip My Hair, was released in the US this week.

Jay-Z says it was rare to find an artist with such talent and creativity at Willow's age.

Will Smith first gained fame as a rapper, but unlike her father, Willow is singing on her record.

Like her father, she's a double threat: Willow appeared in the movie I Am Legend with her dad.
