Get your dancing shoes and your hair (for the whipping) ready. Willow Smith, pop music’s darling and most promising young artist right now, and Nicki Minaj have teamed up for yet another club winner: “Fireball.”

One year after the release of “Whip My Hair,” which put Willow on the map as more than just Will Smith’s adorable, fashion-loving 10-year-old daughter, she is back on track.

Last year, she tried a more pop-ish sound with “21st Century Girl,” but she’s now back to edgy urban pop, after receiving only lukewarm reviews on that one.

Just like its title says, Willow’s latest song is fire: the beat, the production, the swagger, the attitude, all guarantee a sure club anthem. It would be hard sitting down when it’s playing.

To make things even better, Willow has also brought in powerhouse rapper Nicki Minaj, who brings her own special brand of sassy to the tune, while also keeping it age-appropriate.

Willow Smith is now working on her debut album, whose release date is yet to be announced.
