It has been a decade since Will Smith last made a solo Rap album, 2005’s Lost And Found.
Now, the Guardian reports that after making a career on the silver screen, Smith is contemplating a return to Rap and has been working with another Hip Hop icon.
“I went into the studio with Kanye [West],” he says at a screening of his new film, Focus. “I’m thinking about it. I’m exploring.”
Smith also says his son Jaden Smith has shown him some new writing techniques.
“My son tells me I have to write out the things I don’t like,” Smith says. “I can’t write and stop. I have to keep going and going and write them out. I’ve never worked like that before but I think I might give that a shot.”
Last year it was announced that Smith will executive produce a television show based on his 2005 movie Hitch.
Before he became one of the most successful actors in film history, The Fresh Prince was a fixture in American pop culture in the 1990s with catchy tunes such as “Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It” and “Miami” while also starring in the hit television show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
Blame Game Pt. 2 with Will Smith on the outro
all praise to our lord Xenu
I think Fresh Prince was dope in the 80’s and 90’s, not sure about today though his style and lyrical content won’t go over well.
Do not underate Will Smith he will do good. he always does.
You know rap is in a bad place when corny rappers feel safe to release corny music again.
Will Smith is one of the Last ppl you should talk ill about if your a hip hop fan. He broke down walls for hip hop and is a succesful black man that came from this culture a legend and an Icon. Just cause he doesn’t rap and bitches, money and drugs, Murder doesn’t make him corny. Those make you corny. GO do some research.
^ Come On just put dude in his place. thank you. I’d love to elaborate on that but i couldn’t say it any better. you don’t have to like will smith, but if you don’t respect him you don’t know that much about this genre of music. here in philly i look forward to the radio playin “summertime” in the beginning of the season
Bruh yall too serious right now
Damn you just got ethered
This shit is going to sound like some elton john meets 90’s techno bullshit, with Will rappin’ about his gay son & how he wants Kanye to leave Kim for him.
Dude just shut the fuck up seriously. Your making an ass out of yourself.
finally someone real working with kanye
How about “brand new funk”, fresh prince had way more hits then that… “Summertime,” an all time classic!!
Rumors have been going around about this since Ye’s 2010 album. I hope they make an album that gets 10 grammies and then we will live in a world where Slim Shady is a pile of trash and Will Smith is the one true rap god. subana wa’tala
Fresh Prince’s movie career is finished. NOw he comes to reclaim his true rap throne.
he should Call Nas up to make him another hit, Kanye is lost musically.
I “Will” forver defend these two homos. NO ONE ON HERE IS GOING TO SPOIL THAT. I’ll die for the dick!
Mad props to Will & Kanye. I know they got that good bbc for me
; )
Why do people always feel the need to diss all the time.some of you really have issues.. so called raps fans lack maturity and you forever looking for the negative.
