I’m not sure where you guys got this information that I didn’t know will smith was a rapper 😂 I literally stated “I believe he rapped the intro song as well” insinuating he can rap.
LOL I will not hold it against you. I have to remind my daughter that Ice- T, Ice Cube, Queen Latifah and LL Cool J were all rappers before acting. Appreciate your generation keeping these memories alive. I wish they had sitcoms like this on. Even commercials when I was growing up in the 80s had jingles and theme music. Also when Will introduces Jazz that is also his DJ partner in real life as well hence Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince.
Will and Jeff were a successful rapper and dj duo and had to be convinced to act. Will had hit songs out and uncle Phil quotes one of them in the second episode.
Fun fact: Jazz is actually the world renowned disc jockey known as DJ Jazzy Jeff and also part of a late 80's and early 90's hip hop with The Fresh Prince(who is also known as Will Smith). Both born and raised in my hometown of Philadelphia
@@MJWITHOUTMOVIES no no I was just saying it was cute cuz I thought you learned something new. I wasn’t coming at you ,pimp. Hadn’t watch the full video yet
Geoffrey as the posh English butler (aka "Benson"), is so sassy and hilarious. Robert Guillaume, who played a quick witted butler in "Benson" and "Soap." Like Niles (Daniel Davis), another sarcastic British butler, from "The Nanny" starring Fran Drescher (as Fran Fine) & Charles Shaughnessy (as Maxwell Sheffield, who hired Fran to help watch his three children). I love the stock footage/meme of Jazz(y) Jeff getting thrown out by Uncle Phil. Karyn Parsons played a great Valley Girl/Beverly Hills brat. The "Carlton" dance is a classic. The great speech by Uncle Phil gave to Will in the first episode was good. For some "Latchey Kids," who grew up in 1970's -1980's, the TV was the Babysitter. The "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" tv series was cool like "The Cosby Show," to inspire and uplift people = showing two affluent and posh African-American social elite families; in contrast to the two (real life) street-smart Philly imports: the Fresh Prince and Jazz, that uses the "urban dictionary (AAVE/Ebonics)" slang.
The last scene between Will and Uncle Phil was well done. Uncle Phil does bring up a good point that Will shouldn’t be quick to judge him, when he doesn’t know what he’s all about. But at the same time, he is also dismissive of Will’s situation. It’s not until he hears Will play Beethoven’s “Fur Elise”, that Uncle Phil realizes he’s gotta listen to his own advice, and see that there’s more to the kid than he thinks. Such a great moment that’ll inform their relationship/dynamic as the series goes on…
The show gets better and opening theme gets condensed as the episodes go on. And get used to Jazzy Jeff getting thrown out of the house the way he did going forward. In 1991, both Will Smith and Jazzy Jeff had a huge Worldwide hit with the song 'Summertime'.
First off, RIP Uncle Phil. Unfortunately he passed in 2013. If you ever get around to watching the Reunion the cast had in 2020 (or 2021?), they do a tribute for him, and it’s pretty touching. Can see how much the cast respected and revered him.
First thing’s first, Rest in Peace Uncle Phil…but babygirl, I’m so happy you chose to do this series. Heads up, the first season is a great set up, but seasons 2-6 are pretty different…Also, we need you to listen to DJ Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince (Will before he went solo) music, they’ll have several references to it this season. DJ Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince (Will Smith) were the first ones to ever ever win a Grammy for hip-hop, Will had a amazing career in this duo, he only got this show because he was young and blew all his money at the time…and the show was the catalyst to the Will y’all see now.
Love this show When uncle Phil said Will is only 17, he doesn’t have a rep yet. Is a reference to Will Smith’s song “Parents Just Don’t Understand” After saying that I might sounded like a old head but I’m 24 😂😂😂 Rip James Avery & rip Quincy Jones (He produced the theme Song)
Yes! love this show! This show literally taught me english. Well this and some other shows like friends , Family Matters etc all the after school shows..
Thank you for reacting to one of my all time favorite sitcoms. This sitcom & Martin were two of the biggest sitcoms of the 90s. Here are some fun facts: Will Smith said that he was deciding on a name to choose for his character he said that Carlton played by Alfonso Ribiero told him to use his real name because that what he was going to be for the rest of his life. Alfonso used his real name on the sitcom Silver Spoons before he starred on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Alfonso was also in a Pepsi commercial with Michael Jackson & his brothers.
DJ Jazzy Jeff is the second half of the hip hop act with Will Smith when he was The Fresh Prince( and the show is named after him) They were popular hip hop artists in the 80's. Check out their most famous songs Parents just don't understand and Girls are nothing but trouble. Will was the first rap artist to win a Grammy. They came out around the same time and Kid n Play and Salt N Peppa.
People talk about Phil forcing Ashley. Well we have a problem there. Ashley never let them know she hated any of it because she was trying to be a good child and please them. So technically, in their mind they were not forcing her. But also, Parents do have a right to get their kids involved in things they believe the child will get to like even though the child may not at first. That is why you're the parent because if a child only does what they like some kids won't do anything constructive.
There's so much I could tell you about this show. I can't wait til you get to when Wills father comes back into his life. Because I felt that because I went through it. It was sad af.
Martin! But Will Smith is a Rapper first actor second. He landed this role because of his career “JAZZY JEFF & THE FRESH PRINCE” look it up! This song is a copy of his hit “Parents just don’t understand” You need to React to the Drama series “BEL-AIR” And Will and Uncle Phil become best friends.
Yeah, the first few episodes featured an extended version of the theme song. If I’m not mistaken, episode 3 and on, is when the theme is shortened to what most people know. LOL Will knocking the door singing “Back to Life” is iconic. 😂
Idk if anyone in the comments told you this but in the earlier episodes he used to mouth everyones lines when he first started actin because he was so nervous about being on tv because he hadn't before. Not like that but look at his mouth when people talk to him.
There's a cool story about Will playing the piano at the end, I don't think Uncle Phil knew he was going to start playing and that was his genuine reaction.
This show is a classic, I love how in the 1st episode he wearing the same outfit as from his intro. But they cut the intro later on its alot shorter later in the season. Black White Uncle Phil is wild. You haven't seen anything yet. Love you MJ 🤍 keep up the great reaction.
Before there was a Will Smith the actor. There was a rap group called Dj Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. The theme of Fresh Prince of Bel Air is from their rap song Parents just don't Understand. Will could no longer use the name Fresh Prince because it now was Copyrighted by the TV show, which is why he's now known as Will Smith
You getting to all the great sitcoms I can’t wait til you get to The Wayans Bros, The Jamie Foxx Show & One On One and the not black sitcoms like Boy Meets World
Imagine if your mechanic took in 10 cars and worked on each one a bit a few times a week. Imagine how long it would take to get that first car finished. Maybe Martin will finish by next election
Quincy Jones basically saved Will Smith's career with proposing him with this series and introducing him into the acting world, and the rest is history. RIP Qunicy Jones.
I'm glad youre watching Martin. But I'm honestly muchmore excited about you watching Fresh Prince for some reason. Well I myself enjoy Martin but enjoy Fresh Prince on an even deeper level.
Bright colors was typical in the early 90s. Talk about the ozone was big in the 90s as well. In 1990 DJ Jazzy Jeff was a bigger name than Will Smith as he often got top billing over Will Smith.
Well if you’re reacting to all 6 seasons of the Fresh Prince, you better buckle your seat belt bc you’re in for a hell of a ride.. ( Ima buckle my seat belt too..)

Martin and now Fresh Prince. Let’s goooo!! I love my 90’s sitcoms. Wayans Brothers, Jamie Fox Show etc.
Frfr And that’s just the 90s era Imagine if she went to The Sitcoms from the 2000s Drake and Josh that 70s show Bernie mac
The 90s is the greatest sitcom of all time.
Yes The wayans bros and the jamie foxx show but another classic is sister sister
@@lordteegaming9933 Roc, Living Single & Hangin With Mr. Cooper are classics as well.
"DJ Jazzy Jeff....I don't know who that is"....I think I just died inside
Yup you're definitely gonna have to check out Bel- Air, the drama version of this, afterwards

The development of Will and Uncle Phil's relationship is one of the best I've ever seen on a TV show. Going to be a fun series!
You don't know D.J. Jazzy Jeff? Now I officially feel old.
Her knowing uncle phil died wont help with alot of heartfelt episodes coming up
MJ out there put in work of the classics. I believe You can achieve anything to set your mind to.

After saying that I might sounded like a old head but I’m 24 😂😂😂
Rip James Avery & rip Quincy Jones (He produced the theme Song)
I miss 90s sitcoms like this. Fresh Prince, In living Color and Martin are my 3 favorite shows.
I always loved Will and Ashley's bond
You should react to the Jamie Foxx show and Bernie Mac show
If u didn't know...Benson was the butler on the show Soap. Benson eventually had his own show.
He also appeared on an episode of this sitcom & he voiced Rikifi in The Lion King.
Yes! love this show! This show literally taught me english. Well this and some other shows like friends , Family Matters etc all the after school shows..

Little Ashley grew up to have an impressive career in acting and music. Will signed her, and she had a gold album
I used to watch this after school and we had a couple of the seasons on DVD so when I was sick and stuck in bed I would just binge watch the episodes.
First things first Rest In Peace Uncle Phil- J.Cole

Omg yes!! I hope you run through the top classic 90s sitcoms and rank them. Fresh Prince and Martin is always the top 2 though

There's so much I could tell you about this show. I can't wait til you get to when Wills father comes back into his life. Because I felt that because I went through it. It was sad af.
Geoffrey regrets his life and his mistakes 😂, Geoffrey always regrets everything 😂
I could not take will smith seriously dancing like that while jay demonstrates on drum set. lol
Each season gets better and better!
First thing first... R.I.P to Uncle Phil 🎶
Martin! But Will Smith is a Rapper first actor second. He landed this role because of his career “JAZZY JEFF & THE FRESH PRINCE” look it up!
This song is a copy of his hit “Parents just don’t understand” You need to React to the Drama series “BEL-AIR” And Will and Uncle Phil become best friends.
I can’t wait to see the rest the fresh prince of bel-air. W content MJ.
Yeah, the first few episodes featured an extended version of the theme song. If I’m not mistaken, episode 3 and on, is when the theme is shortened to what most people know. LOL Will knocking the door singing “Back to Life” is iconic. 😂
There’s a Peacock Reboot of Fresh Prince called “Bel-Air” which is a drama version of the original show it’s also good
Idk if anyone in the comments told you this but in the earlier episodes he used to mouth everyones lines when he first started actin because he was so nervous about being on tv because he hadn't before. Not like that but look at his mouth when people talk to him.
This show, along with Martin, were my favorites growing up in the 2010's.
Alfonso killed his acting career with his character on this.
He's tough on will because you have to remember he got moved cause he was getting in trouble. He has to change it's why he moved.
He wrote him off as soon as he saw Will, but was impressed by the way Will plays piano 🙌🏾
24:35 That Shredder Voice though 😂
There's a cool story about Will playing the piano at the end, I don't think Uncle Phil knew he was going to start playing and that was his genuine reaction.
It’s not a hobby, it’s a talent! And Phil seen he was wrong Judging Will. There’s more then meets the eye!
This show is a classic, I love how in the 1st episode he wearing the same outfit as from his intro. But they cut the intro later on its alot shorter later in the season. Black White Uncle Phil is wild. You haven't seen anything yet. Love you MJ 🤍 keep up the great reaction.
Uncle Phil was a great uncle man.
Before there was a Will Smith the actor. There was a rap group called Dj Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. The theme of Fresh Prince of Bel Air is from their rap song Parents just don't Understand. Will could no longer use the name Fresh Prince because it now was Copyrighted by the TV show, which is why he's now known as Will Smith
You should try the golden girls or family matters
I mess with these damn reactions 💯🔥 just wait still someone requests “living single” 😂
You say don’t judge Uncle Phil will after you seen Will played that 🎹 piano don’t judge the 👑 Prince!
You getting to all the great sitcoms I can’t wait til you get to The Wayans Bros, The Jamie Foxx Show & One On One and the not black sitcoms like Boy Meets World
Your so cute MJ and Rest In Peace to Uncle Phil
This channel is amazing
I'm here for it, this was my favorite show in the 90's
Imagine if your mechanic took in 10 cars and worked on each one a bit a few times a week. Imagine how long it would take to get that first car finished. Maybe Martin will finish by next election
Quincy Jones basically saved Will Smith's career with proposing him with this series and introducing him into the acting world, and the rest is history. RIP Qunicy Jones.
At the time we were destroying the Ozone level. Through awareness and legislation, we managed to reverse that!
Team Martin > Team Will (both top tier shows regardless)
I'm team MJ
React to scary videos next 🤣
Every time you say you don't know someone i feel old as fuck 😭
Finally! A fresh prince reactor!
Like Martin, it gets better with each episode!

Love this show
Top 5 favorite female reactor
I'm glad youre watching Martin. But I'm honestly muchmore excited about you watching Fresh Prince for some reason. Well I myself enjoy Martin but enjoy Fresh Prince on an even deeper level.
I love your reaction 😂❤😊 finally
Will was a rapper before actor

Bright colors was typical in the early 90s. Talk about the ozone was big in the 90s as well.
In 1990 DJ Jazzy Jeff was a bigger name than Will Smith as he often got top billing over Will Smith.
She called Carlton and Hillary nasty for dancing ? 😂😂
Will is being a problem on purpose. He knows there trying to change him.
IMMEDIATE CLICK EVERY TIME THIS DROPS
