      It's a gift for us tbh. The larger the audience, the worse the audience. The algorithm is pushing it now to us because we are similar in some way. That makes for a targeted in depth conversation to be had in the comments. Plucking the weeds to allow the flowers to grow. I've never even seen this beautiful woman before, but alas, our algorithm overlords blessings runneth over for once.

    I love progressive pop. The mix of catchy songcraft with the more complex elements is just pure ear candy to me. I never would have expected it from one of Will Smith's kids, but I'm definitely going to have to check out the album when it drops next week.

      Got any other earworms in progressive pop? This album is a modern funk jazz pop masterpiece that reminds me of Reign of Kindo a lot, but would love more suggestions.

    I’d say Willow uses unusual time signatures and the syncopation in her vocal and music style at times can sound like a time signature change. I love the intro to this song and rhythm and vocal styles. Willow leveled up on this song for sure, it’s BRILLIANT!🎶💜🎶

    Wouldn't be surprised if it actually is her who plays all the instruments in this...
    Recently saw a video of her on instagram, messing around in the studio, writing a song (not this one)...
    And she was playing everything, drums, bass, guitar & piano!

      I think she plays all of them to create the song, then gets them recorded by professional players. So, she records the demo, but her playing's not featured on the final track. Since she's not usually credited in the band.

    Willow's the most talented out of the lot of them, even more than her parents. It's a shame about all the noise and drama around them. It's kind of like she's obviously gotten her opportunity and platform being a nepo baby but unlike most nepos, she's only lasted and grown as an artist the longer she's been out there.

    Sound not unfamiliar. I hear vibes of neo-soul/acid jazz like Amel Larrieux, Kam Franklin, Jill Scott and N'dea Davenport. After hearing this song I was curious to listen to the album which is newly released which features Jon Batiste. Promising talent indeed.

    It's not Willow on bass and drums. Apparently on some songs she and her collaborators started with the drum track, then added the bass and then added vocal and the rest including guitar she was reluctant to add. The Tiny Desk concert is:
    MUSICIANS
    Willow Smith: vocals
    Liso Lee: guitar, vocals
    Zach Tenorio: keys
    Mohini Dey: bass
    Taylor "The Pocket Queen" Gordon: drums
    Mohini Dey I know has already been getting a lot of attention her own for the Indian music influenced bass playing. Rick Beato just interviewed her.

      Yes, she is Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith's daughter. Never liked Jada and for what she did to Will Smith and he lost my respect with that slap a few years back, but you can't choose your parents. Love this song though.
