Powerful Last Names That Start with 'S'



Hmmm So Your Mom and Dad are Actors.....Your Dad is Actually a Bonafide Movie Star..Orr What if He Were a Hip Hop Pioneer..Hmmmm All Interesting Prospects...Not Always a Reality for The Average Up and Coming New Artist..However Neither of Us Are Willow Smith Or Diggy Simmons..Lets Start of With a Brief Lil Bio on The Homie Diggy Shall We


Daniel Dwayne "Diggy" Simmons III was born on March 21st 1995..His Father is Joseph Ward Simmons aka Rev Run Aka DJ Run of the Legendary Hip Hop Group Run-D.M.C. Our Little Diggy Ladies and Gentlemen is also an aspiring Rapper.

The Above Video Also Known as The Made You Look Freestyle Video, really did just that..it made labels notice him ON HIS VERY FIRST MIXTAPE titled 'The First Flight'...
Having Been Courted by Major Labels He Eventually Signed With Atlantic on March 21st 2010...When asked about his family helping him with his music success, Simmons said that he did not use his father or uncle, Russell Simmons, to push the project..WHICH brings me To My QUESTION!!!!!....Even Though He Didnt receive any help from his Influential Family..do you think it was still easier for him because he's well known..How Can You Boast About Doing Something ON YOUR OWN when youve been exposed to the
world at such a young age via your parent..???Which Brings Me To The Homie Willow Smith

Willow Smith is Another Case All Together, simply because shes been active in the entertainment industry for a bit even though shes still only 9 years old..Acting Along side her MEGA FAMOUS dad Will Smith in 'I AM LEGEND' little willow is no stranger to the Scene..However her latest endeavour into the Music Industry has taken the Internet By Storm..

Nice Beat ^_^ and Actually Many Critics find that the song appeals to all ages, meaning even though it has a Club Banger Beat, the Lyrics are still Kid Friendly...Point Still Is...Had it Been any Other 9 Year old Having Recorded The Song Would it Still Get Any Attention..Soon After The Songs Debut It Was Announced That Willow Had Signed a Record Deal With Jay-Z's imprint Roc Nation.

Yet Still At The End of The Day LAdies and Gentle All i ask is the Simple Question of Whether its Easier to Find Success With Having A Certain Last Name..even if you arent actively exploiting it does it give you a leg up in This ENTERTAINMENT GAME..or does the talent simply speak for itself?
