Oh Cool, Willow Smith Is in Her Angsty Period, Sampling Radiohead

Willow Smith, the human result of a trip to the most advanced Build a Bear Workshop in all the land by platonic friends Will Smith and Jada Koren Pinkett Smith, was 10 years old when she released the cute, infectious ditty about brain damage and ejaculating hair extensions, "Whip My Hair." Now she is 12, apparently listening to Radiohead (or someone is listening to the band for her) and, most importantly, she is pissy, as evidenced by her new song "Sugar and Spice." Over a beat that excerpts and loops Radiohead's "Codex" so that it sounds as Coldplayish as possible, Willow whines, "I tried to be sugar and spice, but I'm melancholy and can't do anything right." To which I say: You're 12. It gets worse.
