Will Smith - Summertime (Late Show with David Letterman)

Will Smith dropped by David Letterman's show earlier this week, only to surpise everyone by performing an impromptu version of his famous 1992 hit 'Summer Time'. The prince has still got it, cool as fuck.

DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Summertime (Live @ Men In Black 3 After Party)

During the after party for the Men In Black 3 premiere last night, Will Smith hooked up with his old pal Jazzy Jeff to perform their all-time 1991 classic 'Summertime', which with the weather we're experiencing at the minute, couldn't come at a better time. Amazing to see them performing together again, and even more amazing to see two friends stay so close after the worldwide success they have both achieved. Rare.

Simon Cowell set to launch new reality TV show 'to find the world's greatest DJs'

X Factor mogul Simon Cowell yesterday announced that he will be launching a brand new TV talent show, which is set "to find the world's greatest DJs". The show is yet to be given a title, but we know that it will have a similar format to that of X Factor, with DJs battling it out on stage to win a highly lucrative deal at the end of the series. The show will be co-produced by Cowell's company SyCo and production group Overbrook, which is owned by none other than actor Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett-Smith. It is still unknown what UK/US channel the show will be aired on, but it's been in the works for over a year, and you can see what all parties have to say about the programme after the jump. If nothing else, it will be funny to see the Weatherspoon-esque DJs during the audition stages.

DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince working on new album

DJ Jazzy Jeff took to his Twitter/Instagram earlier today to post this picture of himself and lifetime friend Will Smith, with the simple caption "Coming soon!". The news that they were planning on hooking up to create a new album leaked a few months ago, but with Big Will having finished Men In Black 3 and now this picture, it seems as though new material is definitely in the works. Nearly 20 years after the release of their last album 'Code Red' in 1993, both are looking much older and have done a lot of living since then, but hopefully Jeff & The Fresh Prince can come through with some refreshingly classic material.

"He's the DJ, I'm the rapper..."

Happyness

So yeah; I watched The Pursuit of Happyness for the first time in ages last night and had forgotten what an amazing film it is. However; this was the first time that I had decided to take note of the score and I realised how important it is in making the film so special. This is the track from the Happyness scene and is definitely one of the most uplifting pieces of classical music I’ve ever heard. Andrea Guerra is a genius.
