Jaden, also an actor and rapper himself, was the New Fashion Icon at The Fashion Awards 2016. He started his own urban clothing brand MSFTSrep in 2013, when he was just 14 years old.  In December 2016, Jaden made a shout-out that he wants to be a K-Pop star.  In all honesty, who doesn't?

Looking back, the Korea connection seems to have started back in May 2013 when Will Smith and son visited YG Entertainment while promoting for their film, After Earth.​

An existing American artist debuting a K-Pop single will be the first in K-Pop history.  Let's see what sort of chemistry will come out of this mix.  Will he be singing in Korean, I wonder.
