If Will wanted to go viral with his music it’s worked. Unfortunately he’s gone viral because everyone is just making fun of his music and saying how terrible the song is.
i feel like he only releases the second album if he rights the ship and releases a good song next. Otherwise the comeback will go out with a whimper on this trash.

I've collated all the videos from the performance here: https://www.jazzyjefffreshprince.com/2025/06/15/will-smith-jazzy-jeff-perform-for-80000-at-wembley-stadium-in-london/

The Capital Radio summerball was one of the best JJFP performances of all time. The 90;000 Wembley crowd doing all the crowd response, Jeff’s scratches back on all the tracks. Just Will and Jeff being together after 40 years; it was really sweet. Give Jeff & Will get their flowers - they are getting older so this may be the last year they perform. Glad they did that! Amazing!

I don’t mind Will doing fun songs, I actually think it’s a good idea. But compare Getting Jiggy Wit It to this. There’s just no comparison. How bad Wills raps are is really disappointing. I feel like the stuff when he was going to make his comeback maybe 6 years ago was way better.

Yep, this is going to get destroyed.
And it's a total 180 from BOATS. I can only imagine the lack of sales and streams has pushed him into thinking he needs to be more commercial. 

I'm hoping it is the first single off the new album.

Sounds like the second album is gonna have some hard hitting hip hop!

One thing I find funny about the reverand interludes is Will doing an old man voice when he is old now  On the Reverand in And in this Corner it was much more of a shift in his voice!

This is fire!!

Barbershop is great, that feels like old school jjfp and I’m here for it.  The entire album hits for me, for sure.  But Rave in the Wasteland is my current favorite, it just takes me over when it comes on.

The only music I buy these days is vinyl man. If Will drops the record on vinyl I'll definitely grab it.

Man, I am absolutely loving this album!!!! I love the barbershop, absolutely mesmerized by it.  Rave in the wasteland has got me, hard.  I love the sermons, his style on those are outstanding.  I’m loving all the different styles he’s rapping in, his flow is fantastic.  The hard times disco rap vibes so smooth, love it.  His message resonated with me in a major way, more than anything since code red.  Love the guitar on First Love.  The fresh feel of Make it Look Easy.  This is feeling very much like my favorite solo album, and second favorite after Code Red.   This album is way better than I was expecting.  So much better.  Fire, just absolutely fire. Beginning to end.

Bulletproof and you looking for me are really great tracks!!

I am so happy with this album, it’s exceeded my expectations, been playing it all day.
 
The barbershop intro is the perfect start, that stuff needed to be said and it’s great to see Jeff on there. I’m enjoying “you looking for me”, it’s a middle of the road track for me.
”Rave in the wasteland” was a huge shock for me, seeing the title, it looked a little odd but when that beat started it was crazy. Sounds so different from anything he’s done, his flow is insane. Possibly my fave of the new, unreleased ones. 
 
Love “bulletproof” I think I heard it a while back when he did it live and I’ve been waiting to hear it properly. Definitely one of the better tracks of the album.
“Hard times” is great, I love RnB so the female vocalist sounds great to me. Only negative was Will wasn’t quite featured enough on it, but musically it’s beautiful.
Been playing “beautiful scars” lots the last few weeks, one of my top tracks of the album.
“Tantrum” has been out a while, I’ve seen most people love this one, I like it but it’s lower down on my list of tracks. Maybe I’ve overplayed it waiting on this album haha.
“First love” is my least favourite, the vocalist just isn’t my style and Wills flow just isn’t as good. I don’t dislike it so much but it’s just nowhere near as good as the rest of the album. Don’t know why they chose to release it.
Really like “make it look easy”, it’s grown on me a lot throughout the day. It’s almost like big Willie style vibes. Such a nice, chill, fun song.
I’ve always really liked “you can make it”. It came out when I was coming to the end of a tough couple of years, so it’s a special song to me.
I’ve always really enjoyed “work of art” too. Being the second song out made me realise we were gonna get some great music out of Will after 20 years.
Overall, love it. I think it’s perfect to come out with music like this after recent years. I’m ok with the swearing, he’s no longer got his squeaky clean image so he may as well haha. I’m hoping the next chapter/album has more fun, upbeat songs. But as the first one back, it’s just right.
 

Okay I got the album so my thoughts,
Opening track is very good. Perfect intro to the album with Will playing the haters after the slap where he got cancelled and Jeff defending him. Makes perfect sense that Wills potna of 40 years steps in here,
Its hard to judge the album when it’s only 36 minutes and we’ve already heard 80% of it but it’s nice to hear it as a whole and a singular piece of work.
You can tell this album Will was getting out of the hell of post Oscar slap and I love that Will used music to get out of that situation.
there is a lot of cursing on the album which is definitely very different and there isn’t much rapping. And all the rapping is in a new rap style.
I know I’d prefer a hip hop album and something more old school and fun but it is what it is.
i do think it’s a good album. My fav tracks are You looking for me, Bulletproof, Tantrum and You Can Make It.
when you listen to the album Tantrum really stands out as a hard hitting rap track.
I think First Love is the weakest track and could have been left off.
I’m interested in everyone else’s thoughts. 
Also interested in the second album in the series I presume it’s going to be about 35 minutes like this one.
