Watch Will Smith Hilariously Recreate Jaden Smith's 'Icon' Video
Will Smith is an iconic dad.
The multitalented rapper-turned-actor celebrated his son Jaden’s 100 million streams of “Icon” by remaking the song’s video in hilarious fashion.
Rocking gold fronts, a rope chain, distressed denim jacket, and short shorts, Big Willie re-enacted scenes from the visual, complete with its neon pink sky in the background.

Although he has the clothes and moves of Young Jaden, Will reminds fans that he’s not quite as young, replacing cool sneakers for socks and house slippers. Finally, his fronts fall in a hilarious finale.
“Congrats on 100,000,000 @Spotify streams, Jaden,” Smith added in the caption. “@c.syresmith It is a Delicious Gift to a Parent to Admire his children. Keep Doin’ You!”
Jaden responded: “Dad this is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life you’re the best father anyone could ask for thank you for allowing me to express myself even when I take it to far sometimes I love you more than you will ever know because you taught me how to love. Also thank you for having the best Instagram on planet earth.”
