Besides sharing a last name with the OG Fresh Prince (aka Will Smith), this triple threat – rapper, actor and Twitter phenom – is no stranger to the world of pop culture. Jaden Smith is swooping down to Zouk – Batman-style – on October 24 with his chaotic, collage-like beats à la Syre, his ambitious debut studio album, as well as his latest Erys featuring other hitmakers like A$AP Rocky, Tyler The Creator, and Kid Cudi.
For starters, the trendsetter is the first artist to premiere an album in its entirety via Instagram TV. Shifting between genres like folk, metal, techno and trap, and topped with eccentric lyrics, Syre is one Beautiful Confusion that takes you deep into the frenzied mind of the bona fide artist. And showing no signs of slowing down, Jaden has also dropped another exciting project Erys which made a debut at his recent Coachella show.
