Willow Smith Single 'Whip My Hair' Hits the Web

(CANVAS STAFF REPORTS) - R&B star Rihanna could have some competition in the near future in the pint-sized package of 9-year-old Willow Smith.

The daughter of Hollywood A-listers Will and Jada Pinkett Smith has set the online music community ablaze with her single "Whip My Hair," which was leaked this week.

The song sounds unmistakably like a young Rihanna. Listen to " Whip My Hair ."

The single doesn't come as too much of a surprise since her mother Jada revealed on "Lopez Tonight" back in June that Willow would be coming out with an album in the near future, according to zap2it.com .

"Whip My Hair" is also causing other celebrities to get their groove on. MTV.com reported that singer Brandy tweeted, "I whip my hair back and forth... Ms Willow is not to be played with!!"

And Justin Bieber's video director Alfredo Flores tweeted, "WHAT!!??! Willow Smith just KILLED "Whip My Hair"... Rihanna, Keri, Ciara, Ashanti - please be warned."

The multi-talented tween first debuted her talents when she acted alongside her father in the movie "I Am Legend" and then separately in "Kit Kittredge: An American Girl."

The talent runs in the family, as proven this summer when Willow's older brother Jaden starred in the successful remake of "The Karate Kid." Jaden also is featured on the soundtrack, rapping alongside Justin Bieber on "Never Say Never."

When Willow's album comes out, it will be with Jay-Z label Roc Nation, according to popeater.com .
