Will Smith has quickly become really good at the internet.

In celebration of his son Jaden reaching 100 million Spotify streams on his album SYRE, Smith decided to recreate the clip for the single "Icon," posting on Instagram late on Tuesday.

Here, Smith appears complete with denim jacket, grills, gold chain and blonde-dyed hair, near-identical to his son's outfit in the video.

Well, except the fact that Smith is wearing slippers instead of pricey sneakers.

"J-diggy, I'm proud of you baby," Smith said in the video. "100 million streams. Congratulations man, hundred million, congrats. I love you."

What a cool dad hey. Here's the actual video for "Icon" below.
