Jaden Smith Gets "Fast," Shows of Rapping Skills in New Music Video [WATCH]

Jaden Smith: Blue Ocean

Jaden Smith: Trophy

Pulling in a tougher side than previously heard on his other two recent releases "Blue Ocean" or "Trophy," Smith shows off a relaxed yet confident and rough side to his spitting skills on "Fast." And, yeah, he's getting pretty speedy with his raps too.

"Actually, I'm a catastrophe / Go to your school and they ask for me / I'm in your class making cash / And we fruity like passion / It's burning like ashes / We just had to make this ish happen / He rappin' again," Smith raps at the end of the song, showing off some impressive word play and a much better sense of flow than what we've previously heard from the 16-year-old Hollywood son.

It's starting to become clear why the likes of Childish Gambino are championing this youngster.

For the 1:14 music video, Smith took to the streets and a parking garage, showing off a gritty side to his personality and music making. He's a little chaotic in his movements, even doing a barrel roll at one point next to a car, but it fits with the quick pace of his raps and this song... because it's all over as soon as it starts.
