Producer and hype man Sloth, who hosted The Rap Show on BBC’s 1Xtra, now headlines The Charlie Sloth Rap Show for Apple Music. Fire in the Booth is Sloth’s YouTube series, which showcases established and up-and-coming MCs as they prove their skills on the mic.
This is not the first time Smith has referenced his awards ceremony clash in his music. In March, he released his new album, Based on a True Story, his first record of solo material in 20 years, which included lyrics addressing his Oscars slap and his “complicated” relationship with his wife. Pinkett Smith previously stated that she and Smith separated in 2016 but remain married.
