Not a good move strategically. People were just starting to forget about that unfortunate incident and Will seemed truly apologetic about it.

This entire return to music thing has been one big bust for Will. Crazy because LL Cool J, Slick Rick, and a bunch of his other contemporaries are proving that the elder statesmen very much still have it in them to produce music at the highest level and Will, with all of his resources is completely dropping the ball.

Need to go ahead and get Bad Boys 5 and I Am Legend 2 cracking. Stay away from the Mic.
shyt was 3 years ago bruh.. I’m sure it was pretty much forgotten lol. It’s funny cause people were telling Chris and Tony to forget about it when they talked about it but now we got Will bringing it up in struggle raps years later. I like Will man but he got to stop rapping. Why is he doing this to himself? :snoop:

Chris should have sued. No shame in it. None of them are street nikkas.
He'd be up at least a hundred M's.

Doubt Will would be talking this spicy after the fact.

All this right here.

Away from all of this, Will just seems like he's having a tough time and trying to figure out how to get through it. Not sure he has close friends or anyone who can advise him to just chill and reset. It's kinda sad to see dude struggling so much to get back to himself.

To add to what you both said. This is a real time mid life crisis, in slow mo. Will went from fighting, to crying, to dancing at that award show, and here he is, going from acting, to "dancing" (whatever that thotiana shyt is), to rapping. He don't know how to feel, or what he should feel. Jada has fukking soul callped him

What exactly are the good strategic moves he has made lately? Something is off with dude. Midlife crisis, breakdown...something. After the slap, nothing shocks me with this dude.

Bad Boys 4 was a GREAT move. Had everybody back on his side and seemed like he was in the good graces of the industry again.

That first little gospel song he dropped was also a good move strategically if not musically. When in doubt, always go the religious route.

The motivational interviews he did talking about his come up in the industry and what the highs and lows of it did to his psyche was a good move as well. Reminded people he was human and likable.

How can any man bring themselves to defend this zesty cuck :hhh:


He was doing this kinda shyt on the later seasons on fresh prince and people say it’s the goat sitcom. Will is one of the greats but he has to know that the silly shot don’t look right when you’re in your 50s

I feel like BB4 was inevitable and that song was wack IMO but I get what you are saying.

BB4 WAS inevitable don’t get me wrong. But the TIMING of it was a great strategic move and they made sure not to phone it in. Having Will’s character actually having an arc and dealing with panic attacks and also trying to connect with his son and save his wife was all good shyt because it connected in a way with what he was going through in real life at the time.

I didn’t like the song. But again strategically it was a great move. Will is great at pushing positivity. It looked like he was getting back to the Will everyone loves and can relate to. Putting a religious slant to it just was icing on the cake.

I think the SOL for an assault on some Civil shhit out Cali is 12 months (or is it 36 months?). I’m pretty sure it’s 12 months for Criminal. Even if it is 36 months, Rock missed the boat, it’s been past that now.

He could have sued but he knows Will Smith is loved, even if white people think he’s a scary negro now, we will always love Will. If Rock sued that might turn him into the villain, and a p*ssy, lol, Rock too hip hop and Brooklyn to sue him for that. He’s soft but still, he knows it woulda looked bad
