Glad you're pointing out his flow switches and versatility - people have said they don't like his music because has "that old corny sound" to his rhymes. Nah, he can ride many flows and switch it up with ease. (But also, I do love that old school vibe flow.) Love the Will Smith run we're on. Git a feeling Summertime might be coming up. Wouldn't mind some more Jazzy Jeff/Fresh Prince era songs, that's vibe music defined imo.
In fairness, in terms of that "old corny sound" to his flow, he started rapping in the 1980s when that was just what rapping was. Plus, out of anyone who still uses that type of flow, I would pick Will Smith in concert over any other 80's rapper, mainly because when he was doing concerts he would do his version of Wild Wild West, but he would use the original Kool Moe Dee lyrics. It sounded amazing.
Easy answer: The 80's and 90's were driven on movie themes. You weren't a real movie if you didn't had a theme song. Too bad those days are over. Who remembers Puff Daddy's 'Come With Me' for Godzilla (1998). Damn, that was a HITTTTTTT
That whole bit at 3 min, with you explaining the cool correlation of the sample and song, lol, gave me a pretty big smile seeing your level of hype there!
in the song Switch, Will even mentsions about the rapping before being in movies : "Ooh, he a movie star He ain't supposed to be out on the floor with everybody" But oh wait, whoa, y'all forgetting When I was, amateur spitting before the scripts were written
Will deserves the roses, for real! Bro, your injections of bars in between sentences and breakups always build the hype! Especially knowing that you actually know them of the top. Well done, yess sir!!
Lol!! I'm still trying to learn the choreography to this day!! And yes, he killed it on the lyrics! Its sad the younger generation have no idea how talented he is as a rapper.
I'm not big on rap with tons of cursing. I do love this song, along with Will's "Gettin Jiggy Wit It" and "Wild Wild West". He just has such a great beat, flow, and no need for excessive profanity. Sidenote: Cat invasion at 10:12 xD
Loving the Will Smith vibe, I use to listen to this back in the day, 2 of my favourite songs from Will are Just the two of us and Boom shake shake shake the room.
Like when Will runs, jumps, lands on the open top deck of the bus and says it's raining black folk in New York and runs down the stairs off the bus through the park after the alien showing him his police badge saying NYPD means I'll Knock Your Punk Ass Down. That was great sexy running in that scene.
Dude i won a dance contest with this song 😎 when i was in high school i used to live in Mexico and they made a dance contest, we were a group of six and they suggested all kind of dances and i was like mmmmm what if we do men in black, they were skeptical but we did it, i remember getting on stage on our black suits, everyone lost it and we won!!!!!! One of the best days of my life
It always used to drive me crazy that Will caught so much crap from the rap industry. It is so refreshing to see you and other reactors giving him the props he’s always deserved.
One of the greatest actors of our time because he has an _eye-pleasing run_ ...lmaoooo...🤣🤣🤣 I'm dead. We should petition for a new acting awards category... _'Best _*_Run_*_ by a Male Actor in a Leading Role'_ 😂 You seriously crack me up! Love watching your videos, always enjoyable! ✌
Man watching these Will Smith breakdowns 1) have me running off to download his stuff from Amazon so I bump it again lol 2) I really kind of wished he had done songs for the bad boys soundtracks now 3) makes me want to go on a Will Smith movie binge. Just has me all in my feels for my younger years 😂
Sublime video mate! Nostalgia moments everywhere! That bit about where will got his sample for the song from, so informative. Those dances, so clean! Smith had bars and beats without curse words. Sob! Much love from Canada 🇨🇦
I am looking forward to more Will Smith breakdown. I left a list of Will Smith song to react to on Getting Jiggy With it reaction. Will Smith is one of my favorite rappers for the same reason you stated in your video. My grandmother didn't really like rap at all. She thought it was violent and demeaning. But will smith, and heavy d and the boys she would let me listing to. Hope you do more throwback songs.
Man! Thank you so much for taking me back to a very special time in my life. God bless you! Ok, now you gave me a crazy idea about that tic toc dance 😂
Lets gooo!!! Another Will video. Keep it up man, you are great. Also, a little on the side, ever thought about doing Em's unreleased album "The Shady Project". Don't know if you have actually already done it but if you have, sorry.
A lot of people forgot, Before there even was a Drake Kendrick eminem biggie Tupac And any artist that did it and hit it Bigg Starting from the 80s.. Will Smith did it First in my opinion.. Im sorry (not sorry) Will Smith is my Favorite Rapper since the Beginning. Year 83 till Now. Come on Ernest listen to Code red from will smith you will love it..
The song Wild Wild West was def the best thing about the movie. 🤣 I used to love Nod Ya Head (I think MiB2 song was called) and play it over and over when it came at the end of the film but out of those three that's definitely the one which aged the worst, to me.
Something you ought to check out since it's been a while is his take on Stevie Wonder's "I Wish," called "Wild Wild West." It uses the Stevie Wonder song as it's sampled beat, and features cameos from Kool Moe Dee and Dru Hill, and has backup vocals from Sisqo. The movie isn't well liked (I love it, though), but most everyone agrees the song was amazing.
I have always like Will. I had no idea where the sample came from but it is very clever how he did. Hope you do "Wild Wild West" soon, or some other songs like Gettin Jiggy Wit It, Miami, Just the Two of Us, Switch, Nod Ya Head, Will 2k, Mr. Niceguy, or Pump Ya Brakes to name a few. How did people not know that Will rapped? Eminem has dissed him a loooong time ago in "The Real Slim Shady".
Another great reaction man. Been here for about a year now. Love your breakdowns and the clear passion for music you show. I've been an NF fan for a few years, so those reactions really stick out. I've got a request that's definitely not the norm for this channel but I think you'd appreciate it for what it is. I know you dig EDM and this song has probably the 2 biggest names in that scene today mixed with probably the hottest heavy metal band over the last 2 years. Feel something- Illenium × Excision × I Prevail Get ready for the BASS! Keep up the good work man.
Can we please have a Will Smith train? You gotta do a couple of jams from the Code Red album now. Probably the best underrated album he and Jazzy ever made.
🌹 Glad to see you’re giving Will his rose.
Right? I am so happy right now lol
Wait what men in black song video, the last thing I remember is a bright white light in my eyes.
😂😂

" All I know is I'm upstairs listening to my Will Smith CD "
Lmaooo em is hilarious
@@TheThirdErnest" You never heard of mind as perverted as mine " 😂😂😂🤷♂️
🤣🤣 yassss
DETROIT
HOLD ON BITCH
YEAH DETROIT WHAT.
Lol forgot about dre
Dude. I grew up listening to Will Smith but I didn't know the intricate genius behind his samples and the connections. Mind blown
That whole bit at 3 min, with you explaining the cool correlation of the sample and song, lol, gave me a pretty big smile seeing your level of hype there!
Sweet baby Jesus. You just taught me so much about this song that I had no fricken clue about! Makes me love it even more.
Lmao I love how your cat walks through the window at 10:15
What's so interesting about CGI is that a lot of the CGI used back in the day still holds up. Or is sometimes even better.
He's so multi talented!
A true threat from every angle!
in the song Switch, Will even mentsions about the rapping before being in movies :
"Ooh, he a movie star
He ain't supposed to be out on the floor with everybody"
But oh wait, whoa, y'all forgetting
When I was, amateur spitting before the scripts were written
Yasss 🙌
I remember when this came out. It was FIRE. You literally taking us back now homie. People gonna realize just how great it was🔥💯
I'm just like you, Will Smith's music reminds me of my childhood. Love it.
Love the breakdown but mostly I’m glad you pointed out his running form
I’ll have to go check out Tom cruise’s next
We need a Will Smith train immediately
Love how excited you were for this!!!
Will Smith is a legit Genius. He turned down a full ride scholarship to M.I.T. in order to pursue his dream in entertainment. Now that's a bar!
I had no idea about the sample. That's dope. Great movie, great reaction, and great song.
Will deserves the roses, for real! Bro, your injections of bars in between sentences and breakups always build the hype! Especially knowing that you actually know them of the top. Well done, yess sir!!
If you don't do Wild Wild West next, I'm going to cry so hard lol
Lol!! I'm still trying to learn the choreography to this day!! And yes, he killed it on the lyrics! Its sad the younger generation have no idea how talented he is as a rapper.
S H E E S H Will had rhyme schemes for DAYS 🔥🔥🔥
Will Smith gotta watch this, I'm hyped right now
It’s funny a lot if people didn’t know Will rap, just in 2018 or 2019 Will was on a track with Bad Bunny and Marc Anthony and that’s a banger
I'm not big on rap with tons of cursing. I do love this song, along with Will's "Gettin Jiggy Wit It" and "Wild Wild West". He just has such a great beat, flow, and no need for excessive profanity.
Sidenote: Cat invasion at 10:12 xD
My man. I am a massive Will Smith fan now, thanks to you. I do be jamming this shiiiii door dashing today!
Loving the Will Smith vibe, I use to listen to this back in the day, 2 of my favourite songs from Will are Just the two of us and Boom shake shake shake the room.
He also did that 'Miami' and 'Just the two of us'.
Now I have to watch Men in Black again. It’s been a minute.
More...More......More!!!!!!
" I would like ANOTHER video... Roll it"😁
Dude that was all the CGI back then. To us it was amazing.
BROOOOO..... I'M FUXKING ROCKING WIT THESE SHITS!!!! GODDAMNNN!!!!!!!
Like when Will runs, jumps, lands on the open top deck of the bus and says it's raining black folk in New York and runs down the stairs off the bus through the park after the alien showing him his police badge saying NYPD means I'll Knock Your Punk Ass Down.

ROLL IT!!!
It always used to drive me crazy that Will caught so much crap from the rap industry. It is so refreshing to see you and other reactors giving him the props he’s always deserved.
I remember waiting till the end of the video tape to watch this video
Damn that’s a hella throwback! I forgot all about that!! Lmao the good ol days
Yep! It was after the credits. I remember fast-forwarding through the movie sometimes just to see the music video as a kid lol. Ahh good old VHS day.
This might be Will's best song. The pen game is actually, impressive. Lot's of great bars.
Loved watching you reminisce!!! That's how I feel about a lot of songs I hear!!! Love this one..its a fab, favorite!!
will smith has some of the sickest rhyme-schemes
Seeing you this hype made me smile so hard. Also you’re fine... or whatever 😋
Damn, this was my whole summer when I was 15 🖤
Love these videos your doing on will smith awesome!
One of the greatest actors of our time because he has an _eye-pleasing run_ ...lmaoooo...🤣🤣🤣 I'm dead.
We should petition for a new acting awards category... _'Best _*_Run_*_ by a Male Actor in a Leading Role'_ 😂
You seriously crack me up! Love watching your videos, always enjoyable! ✌

We're all excited about Will rapping again! Glad you're doing this reaction. Keep it up!
I feel like I learn something new every video I watch from you
He knows .... he knows....drop that knowledge
Here nice and early for the best reaction/breakdown channel around.
Love the videos, keep it up fam.
Great throw back! Bring it!
I used to walk around humming this all the time Haha randomly just walking down the street. Definitely a vibe 💯
Such a walk down memory lane mayn. This was my vibe.
bro you’re a legend
Sublime video mate!
Nostalgia moments everywhere! That bit about where will got his sample for the song from, so informative.
Those dances, so clean! Smith had bars and beats without curse words. Sob!
Much love from Canada 🇨🇦
Ngl I loved this song but I didn't catch all those bars. I already loved Will Smith but I'm loving and respecting the man more and more.
Dang Ernest you got me bopping! About to binge the MIB movies after this video!
Can't forget Nightmare On My Street!!!
Will was on some other level making movie bops that charted top 10 on TRL and Billboard
Another massive one is Bobby Browns “On our own" from Ghostbusters 2. Was a massive hit that peaked at #2 on the hot 100 and is still a bop today.
I remember going to the movies to see this and they played the video after the movie and we were in the aisle doing the dance LOL good times
Also while we're on this train you might as well do Wild Wild West. It was always a favorite of mine growing up.
Well done you earned a subscriber....been watching will since fresh prince watching his movies since Independence Day ...
@1:24. When you doubt yourself

Did you just flashy thing me??! 🤣

You’re great Ernest. Love how you’re schooling us. You should have a degree in music history 😆
You jus blew my mind at 3:50 shit completely went over my head
Lets gooo!!! Another Will video.
Keep it up man, you are great. Also, a little on the side, ever thought about doing Em's unreleased album "The Shady Project". Don't know if you have actually already done it but if you have, sorry.
A lot of people forgot,
Before there even was a Drake Kendrick eminem biggie Tupac
And any artist that did it and hit it Bigg
Starting from the 80s..
Will Smith did it First in my opinion..
Im sorry (not sorry)
Will Smith is my Favorite Rapper since the Beginning.
Year 83 till Now.

I came by to see your reaction to the L.A. Leakers to freestyle for episode #074
The song Wild Wild West was def the best thing about the movie. 🤣 I used to love Nod Ya Head (I think MiB2 song was called) and play it over and over when it came at the end of the film but out of those three that's definitely the one which aged the worst, to me.
"GALAXY DEFENDERSSS OHH OHH OH OHH!"
DASSABAR.

Tick.Tick.Tick.Tick BOOM!

Bro you a Legend for this reaction. One of my fave songs ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the dancing was fire 🔥🔥🤣🤣

This was a real blockbuster. Will made this work.
Man this song was EVERYWHERE
Shit I remember being like 2-3 years old and hearing it in the back sit of my mom's car
I have always like Will. I had no idea where the sample came from but it is very clever how he did.

I really wish he would drop another album
Agreed! Underrated!

Get ready for the BASS! Keep up the good work man.
Man's explaining about that they see things we need not see, yet I saw Orion and his belt stroll through the window lol
Since you are on Fresh Prince marathon, you need to do PARENTS JUST DONT UNDERSTAND - DJ JAZZY JEFF & THE FRESH PRINCE
"Is that what I normally say?" Lol love this channel
Lmao I stumped myself for a bit there
@@TheThirdErnest literally happens to me all the time
Can we please have a Will Smith train? You gotta do a couple of jams from the Code Red album now. Probably the best underrated album he and Jazzy ever made.
Don't forget the song him and jazzy Jeff did about the nightmare on elm street franchise!
The alien that looks like he's singing made me scream laugh XD I grew up watching this and completely forgot about that part lol
Was going through your catalogue and was surprised u havent reacted to GOAT by EM
All I know is I’ve never ever heard this song without moving my shoulders and bopping my head. NOT NEVER.
Yung gravy has a song saying "all these hoes, forget me thoughts" in the same rythm as the ladies singing
Just a fun fact
YET, we still remember 😎
