Ever since Willow Smith whipped her hair onto the music scene back in 2010, fans have been waiting for a full album from the eccentric beauty.
Finally, our prayers have been answered. The already wise 15-year-old dropped her debut album, Ardipithecus, on Friday. About the album’s title, Willow told USA Today, “Ardipithecus Ramidus is the scientific name of the first hominid bones found on earth. I wanted to name my musical compilation after it because, while I was making these songs I was in such a transitional state.”
She added, “Ardipithecus is my first album in my entire career and it makes me feel so blessed to be able to share my evolution with the LightEaters as I continue excavating my inner worlds…”
The album was released by Jay Z‘s Roc Nation label and contains songs such as “Organization and Classification,” “dRuGz” and “Why Don’t You Cry.” Check out Ardipithecus on iTunes and Spotify.
