Yea, watching Jeff leave the tables to take a bow with Will in the middle of the stadium was poignant. They got a few more shows to do but this does feel like its coming to a close soon. What a 40 year career its been.
-
Thanx Tim!

Nice words from Will to Jeff before the 'Boom! Shake The Room' performance
-
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!

Will Smith getting ready to tour

Justice for pretty girls! Music is a funny thing. Thought it was cheesy and silly when I first heard it. But there was something about it that made me keep wanting to play it over and over. Sometimes a song just hits you right and seeing I live just cemented it for me. I love it! I hope everyone else gets to enjoy it, both the fans here and the public. Imagine if it did become a hit. -
Thanks!! I just did the same and was about to post it here lol. That performance was legendary. JJ scratching again was so fun to watch. I really love seeing them perform again, I hope they can continue to link up for more shows. I’ve clearly been a “pretty girls” defender on here but I loved it live. JJFP Forever!

That performance was incredible! The crowd was a bit dead from the previous 2 artists. But you can tell Will and Jeff have been doing this a long time. Will got them going and cheering. Jeff was on fire, great hearing all his scratches on Wills tracks. Even got involved in the performance coming out from his decs. Pretty girls sounded good live. It fit in well with the rest of the set. I like the song even more now. Cant believe they are 56 and 60 coming out with more energy than the younger artists before them. -
I screen recorded it. The file was over 3GB so I had to compress it a bit. Here’s a download link. https://we.tl/t-64fCkpRcHk

Damn gutted that I missed the full performance when it was live. Can anyone find it?

Not sure what’s going on with new people joining and leaving negative comments but I guess that’s the internet these days. It definitely has mixed reviews, a lot of hate but lots of comments enjoying it too. Nearly half million views on YouTube in 3 days. Ive honestly been playing the song none stop all weekend. I don’t want it to appear that I have bad taste in music here haha, but there’s something about it that’s so enjoyable to me. It’s a shame that I feel like I’m enjoying it by myself. It’s like stoichennium said, he’s not gonna be doing this in 10 years. In fact I never thought I’d see him do this in 2025. Embrace it. He’s not gonna make another BWS at his age. But we’ve got a tour and 3 albums. Your hip hop stuff is coming. That anxiety rhyme will be on the album.
-
I’m seeing a lot of positive reactions about this song as well. Had some friends texting me saying they liked it, others saying they don’t. It is a mixed bag. So far the video has 455k views on YouTube. Let’s see where this goes. All the song needs is one or two radio stations putting it on their playlist.

I’m honestly not so sure he cares about that anymore. At least that’s the vibe I get from his interviews. He’s releasing the music for himself, not to please the fans or to try and cement his legacy. He’s just saying what he wants to say, and honestly I’m happy that includes some silly songs like this. -
This is spot on for me. I’m honestly surprised how many people are so negative on this considering how he used to release goofy music with JJ all the time. And no I don’t think all of those were great either, some were downright absurd like “she bit me”. But they don’t all need to be serious or deep. I think this one is fun and I honestly haven’t been seeing any more negatively in the comments than any of his other releases. I dunno I’d take this over “get lit” any damn day of the week. Don’t listen to the haters man, I’m with you. So far I’ve also seen positive feedback about it. Been waiting so long for Will to get back into music, and I was hoping he would also release some fun tracks. I also like this better than “first love” and maybe even “beautiful scars” Ridiculous comment
-
I just thought she was more talking about the album, but slipped up and will didn’t want to embarrass her. But I’d be happy to be wrong (as I’m one of the few who really enjoys the song)
-
Amazing you got that signed. Seeing him in Brixton in August!
-
No, a negative comment is calling me a lier. Anyway, I'm not debating with a faceless person I don't know and will never meet. Enjoy the board. It's been fun but I don't like where it's going. Have fun everyone and I hope you enjoy whatever Will does next! :)

People lie for no reason all the time. Didn't know you needed to be a member for 20 years to be able to post here. Let me see if I understand you correctly, a negative comment is just whatever is contrary to your opinion? This is arguably in the top 5 worst Will Smith song's of all time and I'm being generous. I know it, you know it. I mean, it's right there in the name of this thread!
-
An account with two posts and a personal attack. I've no reason to lie. What's happening to this board? I've been a member over 20 years and suddenly the board is littered with new accounts focused on posting negative comments. I don't like it.

FWIW, the r/CrappyMusic sub on reddit has already gotten its hands on this. To be fair they hate Will Smith, but stuff like this isn't going to help...Like i said in another thread, Im glad he's having fun, but he's fumbling a great opportunity here. LL, Snoop, Busta, KRS...They all recently released some dope albums. Will can do that, but he just seems apprehensive to deviate from what's brought him success in the past. And what did it in 97 isn't going to do it in '25. Do what Kendrick and Jay allegedly told you, and just spit that real ****.

Even JoCat did it better: https://youtu.be/Y2Y5KVtU810?si=Q9tM_I5lKZgGJ3ib
