Bomba Estéreo - Fiesta Remix ft. Will Smith
Will Smith is gearing up lay his roots back down in music in 2016. He's going on tour with DJ Jazzy Jeff, and according to The Rolling Stone (via Zane Lowe's Beats 1 interview), he has some 30ish brand new songs already in the can, including "six or seven that [he] really, really like, that [he's] trying to get the ideas to come out right." The first new bit of material from the Fresh Prince in 10 years is the above remix of Bomba Estéreo's "Fiesta" — and I'm really feeling it. The guitar riff is crazy and Will Smith just feels like confidence.
In the interview, Smith said, "when you've had a certain amount of success, it seems like it should breed confidence. But it actually doesn't. It's the craziest thing; it's like when you win a lot and you lose the ability to lose, you're not allowed to lose anymore. You actually lose the ability to create; the reckless abandon. And it's something I'm getting back from watching my kids — they really don't care. That kind of reckless abandon and that lack of fear and not trying to protect anything and not trying to live up to a legacy or anything like that gives you freedom. ... Fear is the killer of creativity, man."
Fucking right.
