What is the meaning of life?
Double pepperoni pizza
like...is this really happening??? MAAAANNN S/O Speedy!!!
That's quite an entanglement you're putting me in by asking that question
Love. Spread love to make your time on this earth more enjoyable. Show others love to make there time better here as well. Do this without being taken advantage of because then that wouldn't be showing love to yourself. They will remember it even if they don't show it. Show love to the planet that provides water and air for you unbiasedly. Love.
Bro got smacked 😢
“You have to take happy to work. You’re not going to get happy from work.” Bars!
I actually wrote it down.. This was the most Inspiring thing for me.. To Have it all and still lack? God Please
If i get paid millions for just existing in front of a camera.... I'm the happiest MF on earth
@@Ionlydategoodgirlsignorant statement. Acting isn’t just existing, it’s hard work
I've always said that. People get mad at me for being happy at work. I just say oh well and keep smiling.
That's an excellent saying man really hit me like a ton of brick That's easier said than done I struggle with that
thats actually crazy. dude has been one of the biggest actors for the past 30 years.
@@730holdings2 ok.
Yes
Kendrick got everyone in they bag 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@rsb32491girl .. what is you talking about ?
Actually insane
There's literally nothing you can buy that can make you happy. I felt that.
OK Complex, let’s call it a truce I apologise and Mr. Smith I wish
you all the best in this next Movie, I’m sure it will win you an Oscar.
They keep deleting your comments right?! Insane
Everyone has a right to an opinion
@@hollymadelyn1116 Amen Sista, they have their PR bots putting all these positive comments out to clear Mr.Smiths name and they are deleting any opinions that state any different. It is just Sad this is not the same man I once met, this is not the same man I had lunch with. Absolutely just so sad 🤷🏻♀️😞
lol 😂
😅😅😅
Speedy the perfect person to do this interview. Well done.
I was coming to comment the same exact thing , he did such a great job
i said the same thing! 👌🏾
Agreed! He had an excellent interview. Good questions. Good natural flow. Great interview.
Yeah because he won’t ask about brother bilal
He’s a kissup
I wish people would talk more about how great and amazing his acting was in 7 Pounds and The Pursuit of Happiness!
You understand what a lot of people don't see.......just treasure it, the 2 are gifts
He was amazing in Pursuit of Happiness
For real though! I still tear up every time I watch Pursuit Of Happiness even though I know what’s coming. The emotion he conveyed in that is what makes a great actor. No frills, no flashes, just raw emotion. Feel like that movie’s still underrated
@@ChrisYoung-fh1mf I couldn't agree more, he's so versatile and true depth to the character he played in that!
@@ChrisYoung-fh1mfyes I cry every time I watch it.
Can we recognize how great of an interviewer this man is?!?! 👏
I know!!!
“Take happy to the people you love.” - I love that!
Even if they're a "stranger"........as *certain strangers bring good tidings.
Having Speedy stare at Will for the meaning of life is hilarious and introspective hahaha
someone has to meme it
I didn’t understand
@@TLOG_BrandonThink Will was basically saying once one gets comfortable in their own skin, with no distractions, vices, etc, to the point where sustaining eye contact with another person isn’t weird or uncomfortable, then they’ve realized some sort of peace
He’s trying to get to some of that money…he’s a pretty boy 🤷♀️
@@TLOG_Brandon Look at something then look at your self looking at it. That sense of AWARENESS that sense of Iam a person looking at a thing. The meaning of life is to know & love that sense of AWARENESS. That sense of awareness that ‘I exist IN this body’… is God
I don't care what people say... Will will always be one of my favorites
Same Here Dawg
Facts!!
Me, too! I grew up watching his movies.
What I exactly said🫡
I agree , I love his movies.
The part where he's talking about what happiness to him really is really helps me. I've lived my 36 years of life that way and have often felt alone in that philosphy. First time I've really heard anyone, let alone someone with Will's standing, speak on that. Whole interview great as well.
I can tell you the secret of Happiness
@@user-jw3fr2pz6d What is it?
@@user-jw3fr2pz6d let it be 🎶
Him and Jada say the words "you know" the same exact way. Love this interview
They were speak alike and use the same words too!😂
It's Will's thing. His character rubbed off on Jada since she was married to him
@@turbulonTVbc she has no actual personality
They're actors after all huh
He become a copi of Jada and the children too.
1:13 When Will said “you went deep” speedy almost fainted😂😂😂.
Yeah bro just ignored his comment lol
No diddy 🤣🤣🤣
No Diddy !!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏿♂️
PAUSE
No Diddy
Man, Speedy is a PHENOMENAL interviewer. Absolutely amazing questions. Will has been in the public eye for 30 years and most of these questions I’ve never heard him asked. Incredible and respectful interview.
Lol
@@maceresdefensor9222 What’s funny?
He's coming out...
@@reginaldjames5793 ?
🎯🎯🎯💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
I’m gonna be honest & say I teared up a couple of minutes after seeing Martin arrive & sit next to Will; Both of them were my heroes & role models growing up. Both of their TV shows & movies made my day &..man…just seeing two iconic brothers simply alive after all these years despite whatever they went through truly made my day
I feel the same way! So beautiful to see them sit side by side!!
Your have bad values 😂
I appreciate the clean and non messy interview. Shows you have hella respect for your guest, and you treat them as friends. Not to mention the questions was fire. Definitely was not too intense but still meaningful.
29:11 “While you’re planning your life and you think you’re going somewhere…your life’s actually happening”… 😭😭😭
john lennon quote
Huh… plans… 29:11
“For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. '” - Jeremiah 29:11
@@JustAFaithfulServant Yo that was exactly what I was thinking!!! God is so funny
@@leasingoffice-ij6bf RIGHT!
Speedy's come a long way. Good job on this interview bro
This was a very dope interview 🔥 Definitely need a part two, the questions asked and Will’s responses were full of wisdom and humility!
The beautiful thing about life is no matter how many time life knocks you down, how many narcissits chew at you, you will always heal and come out stronger.
I still remember watching “I am Legend” in a packed theater and everyone reacting to scenes at the same time.. this man is real legend.
That movie is trash. Watch Omega Man.
That slap is all I can remember
I was a fan, as well. Was.
@@gorgejung307racist
Yeah.. well I still rock with him.. we won’t miss you bro.. take care love
I can never get tired of hearing that story of the audition in Quincy's living room... A real make or break moment.
Time stamp?
PAUSE
It reminds me so much of the song 8 mile.
He had to give head.
It seemed like a make or break moment in one way, but then again it seemed like Quincy wanted him to have the role, almost like they were all just waiting for him to do the traditional audition so they can get it started. The fact he was even at Quincy's house meant he had been accepted into the Hollywood elite world!
First time watching 360 with Speedy. Magically done!!!
He’s a master story teller. I appreciate how comfortable he’s become being himself out loud.
And slapping ppl
he's an actor
@@supreme7738I'll act for you
Story teller is exactly that (can’t let the truth get in the way of a good story)
@@supreme7738actor = good liar
This was a wonderful interview. I enjoyed every minute of listening to Will answer all question so easily and honestly. Great job to the both of you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This was a great interview, the right questions were asked and the smooth, clear and honest vibes was good.
Will mfn Smith been in the game over 30 years still killing it looking healthy and still doing what he loves. Love, hearing perspective from Will Smith🐐🫶🏿 sending nothing but healing energy his way.
He gone need it 😂😂
I ain’t never seen Speedy so uncomfortable until that stare 😂
What a knee "slapper" 😂😂👋🗯
Once you are comfortable with yourself you win in life
@arcaneiconoclast319 I was going to comment this. That was the lesson in 30 secs of stare down. Being comfortable with yourself is power.
@@ClutchMaster14will smith stare at me Im gettin ready to duck.
😂 I was thinking the same thing
I actually felt kind of sorry for Will watching this. He's been blessed with all of these amazing things in life but still can't find peace within himself. He lives this life where everyone smiles at him but he doesn't know who really loves him and he's too successful to go back to being treated like a normal person.
COS HIS GYAL'S GETTING ROCKED BY HIS SON'S MATE
This is the icon of our culture. I am 37 so all of my peers looked up to this man…for years. He never stops!!! So I won’t stop either.
What an icon. What a beautiful way to carry yourself in front of the world to see. What a loving vibe he exudes. You're right, truly an icon.
Worshipping false Boule idols. Good job!!
He is a BULLY !
@@best-pro570clearly you wont move on from a “slap” grow up 💀
I think when Will’s autobiography drop, there will be a section on Martin and how he helped Will stay focus on what’s important. I feel like people forget that Martin really went through it in Hollywood for a bit but made it to the other side. Two Kings.
It's already out and it's great
Where have you been?? 🤣🤣🤣
Yes, the book has been out. It's really good.
…..😅😂😅😂
Interview ends @ 27:30
Speedy you really did your BIG ONE on this interview. I love seeing your growth as a journalist who makes guest feel like they’re partnering in an EPIC conversation. Continued blessings my friend!!!
What an amazing interview. Loved the humanity, enthusiasm and professionalism from the interviewer. Great job. Will’s a genuinely good man. Thank you. I’m leaving this interview feeling better, wiser and as if I had a conversation with two good friends.
Man, this was simply amazing! I've always been a Will fan, and Martin at the end....was the icing on the cake! ♥ Thanks Complex!
Old dude and still a fan of actors 😂
At 27:17 Watching Will Smith talk about finding the meaning of life by just sitting quietly and reflecting hit different for me. After my own ups and downs, especially a tough separation, I realized happiness isn't about doing whatever I want, but about the connections with my family and those around me. Accountability brought me clarity, and expressing my true feelings deepened my relationships. Society today is quick to judge, but I believe in taking a step back, understanding each other, and passing on kindness. It's all about finding happiness in ourselves and spreading love. A real eye-opener.
Amen brother, God bless 🙏🏼
Thank you for this....I needed to hear this 🙏🏽
💯 thank you
Indeed!
8:34 LOOOOLLLLLLLLL
The best time stamp you'll ever click on XD
Yooooooo! Did he say Fkn? Or fk it? Let me rewind that part 😂 yoooo that story the music 😂 the zoom in! 😂

I said the same thing!! 🤣🤣
laughin now, you noticed that too.. was very irritating.. I mean why come, and what for? ... lol
It was too loud..😂😂😂
Speedy really killed this. Great interview on his part, well researched, insightful questions, good rapport with Will.
Very impressive. Will was calm and willing to go down memory lane. Speedy understood the assignment .
Such a great interview! Will is so WISE I could listen to him talk all day!
I wish this was longer we need a 2 hour special. Martin always comes across as geuine. Thank you for the interview speedy.
😂😂😂😂
DAF.
That man Speedy one of the top interviewers of our generation. Swear 🔥

So begins the press tour
U mad about it?
@@BigA-trucking why would anybody be mad about will smith interviews?
So?
It’s almost like he’s an actor with a movie coming out soon 😭😭
@@thatDarnnShay right. I’m looking forward to all the interviews he does.
This is what showing up for yourself looks like to gracefully tell your own story in spite of the stories that are being told about you. Many blessings Will Smith
This interview gave me what I needed for this day. Thank you Will Smith & Speedy.
Sighh Will’s eyes are still looking sad and are telling a different story than what’s coming through his mouth. Post Oscar incident has truly impacted him in a negative way. His energy and body language is very mellow now.
I truly hope Will can put the past behind him for good and starts living the best of life without giving any effs and we see that upbeat cheerful energetic Will back in action.
He’s been one of the best part of an entire generation growing up and he deserves nothing but happiness 🙂🙂🙂
We love you Will 🙌🏻
@terebinmain I guess we didn't see the same interview. I saw somerhing completely different than you did in Will. What I saw, was something I LOVED seeing in him. This interview was soooooo inspiring! He showed complete STRENGTH. He showed that he has MOVED ON from what has happened in the past. In this interview, he is CLEARLY an example that regardless of what has happened in your past, MOVE FORWARD, keep living your life, keep striving for happiness (because that's what we ALL are doing anyways), and LIVE YOUR LIFE REGARDLESS OF WHAT OTHERS THINK...and he IS doing that. Just because he is not being all "silly acting", and joking at every word, does not make him look sad. Maybe that's what YOUR expectations are of him (to be silly), but there is a time and place for everything. He clearly has "moved on", and it shows. He is a grown man, who was dropping some SERIOUS LIFE LESSONS that we all can learn from, so if that's what YOU call sad, then.....I don't even know what to say to you, because I disagree. I saw PURE GROWTH AND CONTENTMENT. He looks at peace now, and doesn't have to prove anything to anybody. And I am so happy for him for that. I am happy for him in THIS space in life. Being "mellow" isn't a bad thing...trust me. Blessings to you my friend. Sending love and light your way.
It is amazing how people can look at the EXACT same thing and see something totally different! I see a Will who has aged a bit (but who hasn’t) and is STILL saying “F&&k It” to lifes obstacles and speed bumps! This man was spitting gold! Love you Will!
Speedy trying not to laugh during the moment of silence reminded me of looking at my cousin when we are at a Rosario. 😂😂😂
Thanks for the interview FREAKING awesome
I loved this interview! Martin and Will are my favs and I watch Martin and the Fresh Prince often. Classics! And both men are legends!
I admire for Will for being brave and just doing the work
Absolutely…nothing else is worth the ridicule. The growth in the work speaks for itself.
Absolutely God given expression of his gifts thank you for being authentic in your craft 💯🇿🇦💪🏿
Two of the Crispiest lineups and goatees in one video
Haha I love black people. I dont know you're black but I know you're black. I thought the same thing about the goatee as you did. Haha
Thank you Will for this fantastic interview. I learned so much from you and you gave me the chills with your lessons. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I am glad to have caught this interview. I am too a Philly native and been a fan since the beginning. I love listening to will speak. He reminds me of the other Philly native, the late great Kobe Bryant and actor Giancarlo Esposito.Their minds invite you in and make you see and hear a different perspective.
This was such a good interview. Speedy has turned into one of my favorite interviewers. I love when they say “oh you did your homework” ❤️🔥
The irony is that will is never considered a top tier lyricist yet he’s #1 with his way with words
I was getting ready to say How do you know. Then I had to think about and say you are right. No one ever had him in their top 5 or 10. 🤔🤔🤔 he never come up in a rap conversation
@@kilos4058 seriously I appreciate you being real and saying that...most people wouldn’t admit that...I respect anyone that’s willing to admit when they’re wrong
Didnt matter much when his BS family got exposed.
I always thought he had great flow and delivery
Will Smith will never be in my top 5 or 10 but I love his music. His word play, style, cadences, flow was different and unique and how he didnt cuss or talk about drugs etc was even better but people called him corny for it but just means he was doing something right.
This man does his job! And I absolutely love how impressive the convo is just starting out. You can tell he loves Will Smith! ❤
Amazing interview, so genuine. They don't have them like this anymore, for some reason it just felt so refreshing. Maybe it's all the media chaos of the past few days but man wow. Thanks guys ❤
Happy to see Will Smith back out there promoting movies! Looking forward to Bad Boys 4.
What he said about happiness was incredible. I keep rewinding that part
I know.. my brain rewinds that part .. deep
I enjoyed this interview, this guy asks the right questions…it was a conversation 🙌i gained so much wisdom from Will
Hopefully I can get wit your girl too 😂 🤞
This was such a wholesome, awesome, beautiful interview with a LEGEND !!!♥️🙏🏽♥️🙏🏽✨
Will still a legend. He made a mistake. He’s a global cultural icon
Will still wearing that midnight coco bean from Bad Boys 3 huh 😂
This was a great interview, Will definitely dropped some gems! 💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I was dying when he said sit here for 30 seconds and every time Will Smith would look at him he would look away and try not to laugh and was like nope look at me lol
Respect to Speedy.... He continues to do his homework which makes the person he interviews more engaging. That is what you;re suppose to do during an interview.
Also most interviewers would have focused on giving flowers to one of them .. this young man asked for both opinions. Best part he was impartial. Well done!
Great interview I always enjoy seeing Will and Martin together ❤
got to share time with these two on the film. Best moments of my career and definitely a highlight. Great guys!
congratulations!
First time watching your stuff. Great interview/er.
This is a fantastic interview, great job across the board. It felt very honest
Will smith is almost 60 give this man his flowers
Speedy asked great questions. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING…..GREAT INTERVIEW!!!🔥🔥So glad you did this with WILL❤
This interview was really good. These are great questions
Great interview!!❤ seeing Martin & Will together! Both had hit TV shows and are great actors! They are legends in this game!!❤
Great work Speedy,a wonderfully done interview!
I will always appreciate Will Smith and his work
It's beautiful to see him in this space. The world can never take away how amazingly gifted he is at his craft. He has been surpassed legendary status. Thank you for this authentic interview. Thank you Will for sharing your gift with us, forever grateful.
What you call a 'Living Legend'
He was a great entertainer and actor. That's all. His words are empty. He's faux spirituality is cringe.
This was such a good interview
Como e bom ver os 2 juntos Will Smith e Martin Lawrence
, nostalgia Pura, Will ate mudou quando ele chegou ficou mais animado e feliz muito
LOVED THIS INTERVIEW!!!!!
This was a great interview!
Love this interview!
Thank u for this interview
❤❤
He is so right… Nothing can make you happy but you. And that’s so hard.
Happiness comes from within! Bring happy vs getting happy ! Love it!
they can never make me hate Will Smith.

This interview about to slap harder than….well….you know
Played out get over it or I'll slap the taste out your mouth
yea
Than that Patriots comeback in the SB? Naw im jus bs. Im actually a diehard Falcons fan. Gotta laugh at yourself sometimes tho
😂
Made me spit my soda out almost. Hilarious!!😂😂
That was deep ❤ true happiness is from the inside.
Love this interview 🥰
Can’t wait for the movie 🎥
Recently saw the red table talk with Will and his kids talking about “Emancipation” 😌
Blessings 😇
Loved this interview
Will is the GOAT forever and this interview is just another loud example of why that is. Loved this interview 🖤
He did a Superb work in the Movie **Ali**, and I felt Will should have received all the applicable awards and recognition for it 💜
Brilliant! Just awesome. Enjoyed the whole interview, the interviewee as well as the interviewer.
I have always enjoyed listening to Will’s interviews.
No one, not Chris Rock, not Jada, not the cancel mob, the outrage karens and the moral moeshas will make me not love this man. He's an icon and a legend. The idea that one mistake can make people turn on him and diminish his greatness is scary. This man is a lot of our childhoods from Fresh Prince to Summertime to Independence Day, Men in Black, Bad Boys and much more. Amazing man who made 1 mistake but a 1000 legendary things.
Got to mention the wild wild west

@@dariuschisholm7317the soundtrack moreso than the movie itself 😂
@@adetayoolowu4650 yep
People will always love Will Smith. Let's move forward and let the guy just live
I don’t think anyone holds the slap against him. It’s just that him and his family are so weird. Him and Jada putting their relationship on television on blast for everyone to hear is another thing. Also a lot of allegations against him and Diddy.
@@iliketocomment8144we do hold the slap against him. There have been worse jokes told about MANY people, but will smith was the only one who couldn’t control himself because of his “faithful” wife
A lot of people have been wanting to slap Chris Rock for a long time. 😆
By people do you mean "blacks who don't know how to let their god go?" Because we (people with sense) don't care about him anymore dude 😂 overrated and fake (but you dummies wont see that)
Absolutely love this interview perfect great job
Come on now you two making me cry I enjoyed watching my two favorite people ❤️ can't wait for the movie to come out I just love them and their beautiful families
Watching this made me realize how much Willow's mannerisms are like Will's. She pieces her thoughts together just like her dad lol
Great observation
