Jada Pinkett Smith is working on new music with daughter Willow

Jada Pinkett Smith already proved she and her daughter Willow Smith, make a great team with their eye-opening talk series Red Table Talk and now the pair are making sweet music together.

Jada recently revealed that she and Willow have written songs together and plan to release one that’s an ode to Tupac‘s “Dear Mama.”

“I actually have a song with Willow that we did together. It’s called ‘Dear Father’ and we are still working on it. But it’s pretty dope. Willow has always wanted to do some stuff with me,” Pinkett Smith told Billboard. “It’s really fun. So we’re thinking about doing four songs or something.”

According to Jada Pinkett Smith, her daughter has shared her love for music ever since she went on tour with her metal band, Wicked Wisdom.

“She grew up with Wicked Wisdom on tour, so it’s always been her dream to play with the band and play with me on stage,” she explained.

This is especially exciting news considering Willow revealed how much she struggled with her music career after the success of her single, “Whip My Hair” in 2010.

“It was after that whole ‘Whip My Hair‘ thing and I had just stopped doing singing lessons and I was kind of just in this gray area of, ‘Who am I? Do I have a purpose? Is there anything I can do besides this?” Willow said on Red Table Talk.

“After the tour and the promotion and all of that, they wanted me to finish my album and I was like, I’m not gonna do that. And after all of that kinda settled down and it was like a kind of lull, I was just listening to a lot of dark music. It was just so crazy and I was plunged into this black hole, and I was cutting myself.”
