Jaden Christopher Syre Smith, son of famed parents Will and Jada Smith, knew that from the start, he was not like other kids. \u201cI\u2019ve always looked at life differently,\u201d commented Jaden in a recent interview with Variety Magazine<\/a>. \u201cI always knew no one was going to understand me \u2014 since before I could talk \u2014 and that\u2019s why I was so quiet. I was very calm, very to myself. I could tell I felt about life differently than other kids; I could tell by the way they treated me.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the creation of his clothing line, MSFTSrep, Smith is able to give other young people like himself a voice and a place to belong. \u201cIt\u2019s pronounced \u2018misfits.\u2019 I took the \u2018I\u2019 out of \u2018misfits\u2019 because we\u2019re a team and there is no \u2018I\u2019 in team,\u201d Smith says. \u201cIt\u2019s a place for the lost kids and everyone to go, and something for them to have. It is created for the girl that wants to be a tomboy or the boy that wants to wear a skirt, and people try to condemn. We\u2019re here for you. Tell us your stories. If someone at your school\u2019s trying to pick on you, it doesn\u2019t matter because Jaden Smith\u2019s got your back.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked who does he credit for helping him to become the young man that he is today, Smith unquestionably didn\u2019t hesitate and told the magazine, \u201cMy parents, of course. My parents told me that the world was harsh and that we had to be strong within ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

Smith’s role as Marcus \u201cDizzee\u201d Kipling in Baz Luhrmann\u2019s musical drama series \u201cThe Get Down” is now available\u00a0on Netflix.<\/p>\n
