Will Smith celebrated his son Jaden Smith earning 100 million Spotify streams of SYRE by delivering a hilarious remake of the video for “Icon.” Donning Jaden’s signature bleach-blonde hair and a fake gold grill, Will recreated the opening scene of Jaden’s video, even attempting to replicate his son’s moonwalk in white socks and slippers:
He accompanied it with a congratulatory caption:
Congrats on 100,000,000 Spotify streams, Jaden! It is a Delicious Gift to a Parent to Admire his children. Keep Doin’ You!
It’s all a parody of Jaden’s original video, which has racked up over 42 million YouTube views since its release late last year:
SYRE dropped on Nov. 17, 2017, and has proven to be a breakout moment for the younger Smith. “Icon” alone has earned 30 million Spotify streams, with another 23 million for “Batman” and more than 10 million for the A$AP Rocky-assisted “Breakfast.” The album also features Raury, Pia Mia, and Smith’s younger sister Willow.
Jaden previously sat down with Genius to break down “Icon” in an episode of Verified:
