Will Smith Returns to Rap with New Album

News summary

Will Smith is making a comeback in the hip-hop scene with his new album, 'Based on a True Story', released nearly 20 years after his last album. The project touches on his infamous Oscars slap incident involving Chris Rock, featuring tracks that reflect the scrutiny and gossip surrounding his life. Critics highlight that while Smith's lyrics suggest a raw and personal exploration, they also maintain a playful tone reminiscent of his earlier work. The album's release comes after Smith has faced a ban from Academy events for ten years due to the altercation, which has overshadowed his recent Oscar win. Despite the challenges, Smith is set to embark on a UK tour, marking a new chapter in his musical career. His return to the stage has prompted discussions about whether he can still resonate in today's hip-hop landscape, particularly alongside contemporary artists like Kendrick Lamar.
