Will Smith is a man of many credits. Throughout a career of nearly three decades, we have witnessed the Men In Black star cement himself as one of the most talented individuals. We are no strangers to the legacy Smith left behind in the rap world before making a mark in Hollywood. Even though the actor has made a remarkable impact on the film industry, his career as a rapper was also incredible. And a few years ago, the I Am Legend star hit the studio as he recorded an immaculate rap solo.

The clip of the same surfaced online recently and the fans can’t seem to get enough.

Will Smith rapping left fans wanting more

In recent times, we have witnessed how Will Smith’s name is taken whenever we talk about movie stars. It has been years since the actor’s name last meant rapper and it has been decades since we last knew him as the Fresh Prince. However, a few years ago, the Men In Black star decided to remind the world of his rapping skills. Back in 2018, Smith hit the studio as he dropped an iconic rap solo. While he recorded the song casually, the actor left the fans in awe with the incredible freestyle. Recently, the clip surfaced online yet again and set the internet on fire.

Prior to dropping an iconic freestyle, Smith started in style as he spoke, “So I’m exited. I’m re-energized and creating wildly like I used to.” Throughout the clip, the actor bragged about his riches as he dropped some heavy bars. Shortly after the clip surfaced, the hip hop fans’ excitement skyrocketed seeing the Fresh Prince back again. The post gathered multiple reactions from the fans as they were all in awe of Smith’s flawless lyricism. A user even commented how the Fresh Prince straight away humbly flexed on the fans with the freestyle.

Interestingly, one wrote how “Will Smith needs to be discussed more in rap conversations.” Elsewhere, the fans flooded Twitter with hilarious GIFs vibing with the song. Meanwhile, the post even saw the Twitterati quoting lyrics from the solo as well.

Was Will Smith supposed to perform at the 2023 Grammys?

The 2023 Grammys were perhaps one of the most important events for the hip hop industry. We witnessed how the award ceremony paid tribute to hip hop to celebrate its 50th anniversary. While the event featured a plethora of iconic performances, it missed out on one special performance by Will Smith.

It might surprise you to know that the Fresh Prince was set to perform in the 2023 Grammys. Questlove, while speaking to Variety, confirmed the same. However, owing to his filming schedule, the rapper called it off. Apparently, Smith started shooting for his much anticipated Bad Boys 4.
