Will Smith’s latest album addresses Oscars incident and complex marriage.

Will Smith has made his return to the music scene with the release of his first album in two decades. The album, titled “Based on a True Story,” dives straight into the controversies and scandals that have surrounded the actor in recent years. The opening track, “Int. Barbershop – Day,” sets the tone by declaring that Will Smith is now “canceled,” followed by a chorus of voices discussing his legacy.

The lyrics of the song touch upon various aspects of Smith’s life, including his altercation with Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. There are references to the incident where Smith slapped Rock on stage, followed by a mention that he had to give back an Oscar. The song also delves into his marriage with Jada Pinkett Smith, calling it “both crazy” and warning others to keep Pinkett Smith’s name out of their mouths.

The second track on the album, “You Lookin’ for Me?,” continues to address Smith’s controversies. The lyrics touch upon the fact that Smith won’t be nominated for awards despite his ongoing success.

This is a clear nod to the fallout that followed the Oscar incident, which led to the Academy banning him from all events for a decade.
