The Fresh Prince himself, Will Smith, has returned to the music scene with a bang. This Friday (June 28), our favorite 55-year-old Grammy and Oscar-winning superstar blessed us mere mortals with his latest track, “You Can Make It.” And guess what? He’s not alone—he’s joined by Fridayy and the Sunday Service Choir, because why not turn up the volume on the holy vibes?
Imagine Will Smith, standing on a mountaintop, wearing a cape made of pure inspiration, rapping, “The darker the hell you gotta endure / The brighter the heaven you get to enjoy / The harder the fall, the higher you soar.” I mean, is this a song or a motivational seminar? “God opens a window when the devil closes the door / Believe me, they tried to bleed Will Smith / In the rearview, I see adversity was the gift / To lift me higher gifts requires faith.” If this doesn’t make you want to run through a brick wall, I don’t know what will.
And here’s the kicker: Will dropped this lyrical masterpiece just days before he’s set to perform at the 2024 BET Awards on Sunday, June 30. Talk about making a dramatic entrance!
