When you’re the 23-year-old son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett, chances are you’re going to be a bit of a prat. That’s not a criticism, it’s just a fact of life. Sure enough, Jaden Smith has rubbed the internet up the wrong way with this viral clip from a podcast he did recently:
“Omg can we please talk about taxes for a second? Y’all are too childish!” If only the podcast host took him up on his offer to talk about the political and economic state of the world, we could have heard some electric takes. Especially given the galaxy-brained Tweets Jaden has fired off over the years. Here are some examples:
May 2, 2013 “How Can Mirrors Be Real If Our Eyes Aren’t Real.”
Sept. 4. 2015 “The Biggest Flex Anyone Will Ever Have Is Dying.”

Look, you would be the same way if Will & Jada were your mum and dad. They are 100% the parents who tell their kids every day how mature and special they are. So if Jaden Smith wants to be millionaire pop star who goes around being enlightened and giving his take on serious issues he knows little about, then more power to him. Especially when every interviewer is a yes-man going “riiiight” and “mmhmmm” at everything he says.
