Jay Z Says Willow is not too Young


Yesterday the Internet erupted with posts claiming Willow Smith was 'too young' after Jay Z signed the 9 year old  to a record deal with Roc Nation. Well Jay says there's no such thing as 'too young' when you're talking about talent.

Jay says,
"I heard the record first before I knew that it was recorded by a nine year old and I was like, man that record's a smash. I believe in superstars. I believe in big records and in superstars and I think [Willow] has both."

"She has a child's innocence but she has a clear vision of who she is and who she wants to be. I can only imagine that's how Mike [Michael Jackson] was as a young kid, he knew exactly what he wanted."

"When you have that sort of talent, there is no such thing as too young,"
