He hasn't been asked to battle but Jaden Smith is ready to go up against any rapper who might think they’re better than him. And he wants proof of their superiority, according to a round of confident tweets he fired off this morning (Oct. 17) that would definitely make Kanye West proud. 

“Dear Everybody Who Can Rap Better Than Me. Please Show Me. Cause I Got 2 Or 3 Albums In Stock Ready. You Just Give Me The Word,” the 16-year-old wrote.

Though it never hurts to feast on a humble pie, Smith has reason to feel self-assured these days. He let out a surprisingly impeccable flow on “Melancholy,” a song he released recently that samples Pink Floyd’s “Breathe” track from over 40 years ago.

Even before the rave reviews from "Melancholy" Smith has never not been vocal about whatever musings run through his mind, and he may be feeling a stream of inspiration from Yeezus. Earlier this week the actor/rapper tweeted, “Kanye is a genius.”
