It's an older article but it's still interesting. I knew about the boycott but it's always great to read more about it. 

Since the decade is almost over I thought it would be a great idea to list all the songs Will did in the last 10 years. Just to get an overview of the of the music he did. I'll try to start this list. Keep in mind we're talking about the music he released from 2010 until 2020. If I missed something you guys can always add more.

Will Smith To Star As Crime Boss Nicky Barnes In Netflix Film ‘The Council’
Will Smith will take on the role of New York City crime boss Nicky Barnes in his next Netflix film The Council. The project will re-team Smith with Concussion helmer Peter Landesman, who wrote the screenplay for the new film and will executive produce. Smith and partner James Lassiter are producing the pic for Westbrook Inc.’s Overbrook Entertainment along with Jackson Pictures’ Matt Jackson and Jason Essex for Anonymous Nobodies.
Landesman’s script tells the never-before-told story of a crime syndicate consisting of seven African-American men who ruled Harlem in the 1970s and early ’80s. No ordinary crime syndicate – the men dreamed of a self-sufficient and self-policing African American city-state, funded by revolutionizing the drug game. The movie centers on the Shakespearean court intrigue between The Council’s king, Nicky Barnes, dubbed “Mr. Untouchable” by the New York Times, and all the different members as one unlikely rising protégé emerges.
Barnes, born Leroy Nicholas Barnes, was active during the 1970s leading an international drug trafficking ring, in partnership with the Italian-American mafia. He was arrested in 1978 and sentenced to life imprisonment, eventually becoming a federal informant, which led to the demise of The Council. Barnes died from cancer in 2012, however, his death was recently made known due to him being under witness protection.
Landesman will serve as an executive producer with Jackson Pictures’ Joanne Lee and David Lee from Anonymous Nobodies.
Smith, most recently seen on the big screen as Genie in Disney’s live-action Aladdin remake, has Fox’s Spies in Disguise animation, the Ang Lee-directed Gemini Man at Paramount, and Sony’s Bad Boys For Life sequel upcoming.
Ryan Goodell of Morris Yorn negotiated on behalf of Essex, while CAA and Andrew Galker from Jackoway Austen negotiated on behalf of Landesman.
Overbrook is repped by CAA and Sloan, Offer. Jackson Pictures is with CAA and Manatt, Phelps & Phillips.

Dope stuff! They should do a B-sides show, only songs that weren’t released as singles... how dope would that be!

I remember that performance, love the way he comes to the stage! 

Just saw Aladdin. Same story as Tim. Full house, all ages. A lot of positive talk about Will. Even some applause at the end which never happens in Belgium. I liked it. Loved the end credits hearing the new version of Friend Like Me.

Wow!! 
Love this video! So dope! 
Major thanks for uploading it!

Thanks to DaBrakes we have an "extended" version of the snippet!
If it's okay with you Brakes I can upload the MP3 file for everyone?

I saw Bright today and I liked it. Some good action scenes, funny jokes. I like seeing Will in action movies like this. Sure it was not a deep story and it was predictable at times but it's very enjoyable. 
I like the fact that the public loves it. Don't really care about reviews and critics. 

I just bought it on iTunes!

Unfortunately I didn't, but that's okay. I'm just very happy that I got the opportunity to see Jeff and Will live! That was a dream come true. And I have a feeling they will do more shows and that I will get my shot at meeting them!

I'm glad he didn't change outfits. He just kept it Hip Hop yesterday.
Boom! was never my favorite songs but after seeing it live yesterday... damn!!!

Greatest show I have ever been to! It was just amazing seeing them live. I've been a fan for almost 20 years and it was a dream come true. Great setlist, great effects and visuals. Loved every second of it. Boom! was such a great opener. And Brand New Funk and I Wanna Rock were my favorites!
The new song is dope, something for the clubs. Hoping this will give us more music... (an album maybe?!)
