Biography
Willow Camille Reign Smith (born October 31, 2000), known mononymously as Willow, is an American musician and actress. After early beginnings as a child actress, she signed with Jay-Z's Roc Nation in 2010, becoming the label's youngest artist. Her debut single "Whip My Hair" peaked at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified 3× platinum by the RIAA. Her subsequent singles "Wait a Minute!", "Meet Me at Our Spot", and "Transparent Soul" were also certified platinum or higher by the RIAA.
Willow has released eight albums as a solo artist and one album as half of the Anxiety alongside fellow musician Tyler Cole. Her music incorporates elements of art pop, alternative rock, jazz, R&B, and funk, with her later work increasingly characterized by experimental and genre-crossing approaches. Her albums Lately I Feel Everything (2021), Coping Mechanism (2022), and Empathogen (2024) received critical praise, with the latter earning two Grammy Award nominations.
Willow has also been nominated for two Emmy Awards and three MTV Video Music Awards. She has toured internationally as a support act for Childish Gambino (2024) and Coldplay (2025). From 2018 to 2023, she co-hosted the Facebook Watch series Red Table Talk with her mother Jada Pinkett Smith and grandmother Adrienne Banfield-Norris. The series received twelve Daytime Emmy Award nominations during its run, winning for Outstanding Talk Show, Informative in 2021.
