OK, I don't like the song, BUT... There seems to be a real anti Will agenda right now online. It started with the Lyrical Lemonade freestyle and it's continuing here. WHY ARE NEW ACCOUNTS JOINING THE BOARD TO POST THE SAME HATE POSTS IN MULTIPLE TOPICS? Is it AI? Are these even real people? What's going on?

Y’all need to lighten up. (And I’m not including the random bots that just ascended upon us)

The lack of sales are mainly due to the music being garbage and everyone realizing that Will is just an insecure man looking for validation from tik tokers and his wife's boyfriends, but I get your point...

I think one of the reasons for lack of sales is the fact that Will hasn't put out any new music for the last 20 years. Because he's gone so long without releasing new music then people are going to forget/lose interest about his music career and there are now people who don't even know he's a rapper. If he had just kept the music alive even if it was just releasing one new song a year on Spotify/iTunes then maybe things would be different now.

Will Smith is pathetic. Almost 60 and he decides to make a mediocre song about "loving pretty girls". I can't believe I used to look up to this guy when I was growing up. The Fresh Prince was cool, Will Smith is lame. Don't get confused!

Will Smith is officially back in the music game — and he’s bringing the sunshine. After a long hiatus from the music scene, the global star drops a fun, carefree new track titled “Pretty Girls”, featuring up-and-coming rapper OBanga. Blending nostalgic ’90s energy with a fresh 2025 urban twist, “Pretty Girls” is exactly what its title promises: a breezy, danceable tribute to summer, fun, and — of course — the girls who light up the season. With a rhythmic beat laced with dancehall influences and smooth, catchy hooks, the track is tailor-made for beach parties, car rides with the windows down, and TikTok dance clips. Will Smith keeps things light and playful, sticking to his signature clean style: positive vibes, cheeky humor, and effortlessly likable charisma. There’s no need for bravado here — just feel-good rhymes and a groove you can’t help but move to. Meanwhile, OBanga injects the song with modern street flavor and energetic flow, offering a cool contrast that keeps the track dynamic and relevant. His presence adds that necessary edge, helping “Pretty Girls” land comfortably between throwback charm and contemporary heat. Though not meant to be deep or groundbreaking, “Pretty Girls” succeeds as a sunny, feel-good soundtrack to summer 2025 — and marks a confident step in Will Smith’s musical reawakening. Expect buzz, smiles, and replay buttons getting worn out. source: https://hit-channel.com/will-smith-pretty-girls-obanga-2025/

It’s a cynical play for dumb tik tokkers- I don’t mind Will doing some fun rap but this is not it. I mean he is capable of making something like Summertime - this has no substance and just straight bad. I always defend Will but I can’t defend this record.

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 think it’s going to backfire - look at the comments on Wills tik Tok - he is being absolutely savaged for how bad this is.

I get what he's trying to do. It's a song made for TikTok and social media. He's trying to stay relevant, he's riding trends. It doesn't appeal to the old skool Hip Hop heads like most of us. We're all hoping he will get back in the lab with Jeff but he's just having fun and trying things. I could see this blow up on TikTok and other social media. It's got a catchy hook and a fun beat. Lyrics are basic club rap, it's better than First Love in my opinion.

That's dope! Lucky you!

Couldn’t disagree more

Love this track!!! A Summertime banger!

This is seriously one of the worst tracks Will has ever released. What was he thinking? Bad beat, horrible lyrics and horrible concept. I feel like he has killed his musical comeback with this rubbish. Very disappointing. How did no one near him not tell him this song is awful.

That's amazing! It must have been a great experience

Wow it sounds like the old Neptune sound from hip hop in the early 2000s. I'm digging it

I was there! Right at the front. I only live a 25 minute walk from King's Cross Station, so I got there as soon as i heard about it. Oh, and Will signed my Willennium vinyl. Still can't believe it!

'Pretty Girls' Music Video tomorrow! https://www.instagram.com/p/DKz9foaykHI/

Love that he did this performance, and man "pretty girls" sounds great. Can't wait to hear it tonight.

Still seems so surreal that this is happening. To get a new single (with a video) so soon after an album is ridiculous. Now I just need a concert somewhere that doesn't require me to fly for an insane amount of $$$ and I'll be set.
