  • Will Smith’s resume speaks for itself. For over 30 years, West Philadelphia’s favorite son has conquered music, television, and film. But after stepping away from the booth, The Fresh Prince is dusting off his crown with freestyles and an insatiable social media following. On location in Budapest, Big Willie speaks on his new music, The Fresh Prince, box office success, family, and more!

    Will Smith legit should've gotten the Oscar for "Pursuit of Happyness".

    My favorite nugget from Mr. Smith: "As much as marriage is a relationship commitment it really is a singular commitment to yourself that you are going to use your marriage to develop yourself. MARRIAGE DEMANDS THAT YOU BE THE BEST VERSION OF YOU OR IT (MARRIAGE) AIN'T GON WORK!"

    Will smith rarely does these type of interviews. It’s so refreshing to see him unleashed!!

    Will is so human and wise. It sucks that he didn't get his credit as a rapper for years... What does it say about the black community that as a rapper he gets no respect because of his clean raps, as a actor he is always mentioned behind denzel and now even new black actors, as a married men his wife is beautiful and yet people talk more about love and hip hop or basketball wives. Will is so great and yet he gets no respect from the black community.
    Mr. Smith if you ever read this I would love to take you out to lunch and say thank you! Thank you for not turning your back on us or leaving us even though we have done so to you for years. And most importantly thank you for showing the world that we black men are more, so much more than the negative stereotypes.

    Truuuuuuu story
    I was watching Denzel's flick Roman Israel, and my girl said,"I could see will Smith playing this role".... I thought for a few seconds, then said, " Nah. I don't think will would be as effective... will is awesome, but I don't think he could come off as meek as Denzel did playing this role. Will is a nice guy, but could he erase his swag completely the way Denzel did? I don't think so..."
    Fast forward a few days later, and here's Will saying he sees Denzel do things that he can't.

    If I had not personally listen to this interview and allowed other’s opinion of what they gleaned from the interview to influence my thinking, I would’ve missed out on a great experience. It’s Amazing how we can project our own limited perspective on things, this was a beautiful and elevating interview! Living and thinking outside the box is not a common phenomena, most can’t relate!

    Great interview..Will Is a breath of fresh air and the reason why he is accepted as a rapper now is because back in the day when Hip Hop started if you was commerical you was called a sell out.. Rappers didn't want to go platinum we want it to stay underground so Will and McHammer was considered sell out but now Hip Hop is mainstream..2pac quote..What you waiting to beat my azz if I don't go pop...Two Fingers and one word."evolve ."

    Big Willy Style is in the building, breaking down his vision! Always refreshing to listen to him. The one thing that is rock solid throughout this SPECTACULAR interview is that Mr. Smith tends to gravitate towards ideas and people that have a real impact on our world.
    He likes trendsetters. That's why (for example) the house of Medici and Kanye West keep popping as references throughout this wonderful conversation...
    Oh by the way, ''Summertime'' is the eternal anthem of the summer!
