Jaden Smith Debuts Somber Track ‘Blue Ocean’
Jaden Smith is known for putting out some weird and sometimes cryptic tweets. However, when he took to Twitter last night (Sept. 29), he had something a bit more substantial up his sleeve.
Using his sister Willow's Soundcloud site, he posted a new song called 'Blue Ocean,' which shows off more than just his skills as a rapper. With Justin Timberlake's 'Blue Ocean Floor,' off his 'The 20/20 Experience Part 2' LP as the melody, he sings his heart out at the top of the track.
"Don't tell me you cried / 'Cause I know that you did it / Don't tell me you love me / I just know I'm just trippin," Smith croons.
But being a rapper at heart, he attacks the track with conviction -- telling the story of a girl who played him.
"Man, I met a girl at Coachella / I like her but you know I couldn’t tell her / 'Cause she has her own fella / And I met her blow dealer / He told me he was a whole seller / And I'm fly as propellers / And it's raining umbrellas," he delivers on the mic.
While the actor-turned-artist seems to be challenging his inner Eminem with the power he puts into each lyric, it's a lengthy one at seven minutes.
