Willow Smith turns 14 tomorrow, and the fact that her birthday's on Halloween is fitting, considering how scarily talented she is for her age. To celebrate, she's shared a new track called "Cares," which comes with a brief SoundCloud description that reads "I played the drums."

Now don't expect any virtuosic displays of percussion mastery here, as the beat Smith hammers out is rather rudimentary, but what she lacks in experience on the drums, she more than makes up for with her spritely voice. Like most of her other recent work, "Cares" is relatively free-form in its structure -- Willow Smith is clearly not lacking in creativity.

Quotable Lyrics

You don't have to be scared
You don't have to wonder why
You can just sit here
You can just look in my eyes
That's not love
