Will Smith (Fresh Prince)

by Garrett from Greensboro

Will Smith was born on September 25, 1968 in Philadelphia and went to school at Overbrook High School. He was the class clown. Will had a talent for rapping so a couple of blocks away from Will's house someone was having a house party and Will just started rhyming on the mic like it was nothing and the dj was dj Jazzy Jeff so Will and Jeff started making tracks as dj JAZZY JEFF & the FRESH PRINCE. They also let Ready Roc C join as the human beat boxer and they made millions.

Will decided that he didn't want to go to college after that summer so Will and his group started recording at Jive Records. Then Ready Roc C sued Will and the company for some reason. Then in 1991-1996 Will and Jeff were making a TV show called the Fresh Prince of Bel-air. In 1992 Will and Jeff made their hit record Home base with Summer time on that record.

Also in 1992 Will got married to a fine lady and soon after they got married they had a child. His name is Willard Christopher Smith 3, nicknamed as Trey. Then the couple divorced. Then Will started making movies such as Hancock and Sharktale and many more.

Then Will got married to Jada Pinckett-Smith and they had their first so named Jaden Christopher Syre Smith, then they had Willow Smith.

Then in 1997 he made "Gettin jiggy with it" and more songs and movies and that's why he's my hero.
