It seems that actor Will Smith is making subtle jabs at comedian Chris Rock, over three years since their altercation at the 2022 Oscars. In a recent freestyle rap performance on Apple Music’s Fire in the Booth, Smith mentions being disrespected on stage, which has sparked much discussion.
In his latest rap track, Smith seems to reference an old dispute he had with Rock. Let me share some insights on this topic.
What did Will Smith sing about Chris Rock?
In a recent appearance on “Fire in the Booth”, it appears that the actress from “The Bad Boys: Ride or Die” made a subtle criticism of the 60-year-old comedian.
During his collaboration with DJ Charlie Sloth, Will Smith seemed to reference the well-known Oscars altercation in a subtle manner. Instead of explicitly mentioning Chris Rock’s name, he rapped a line that implied the situation: “If you’re spewing nonsense right into your mic on stage and disrespect me while I’m up there, be prepared to see me up there as well.
Smith went on saying, “Jokers give out jabs, complain when it’s their turn to receive one/ Born in a city of genuine individuals, I wasn’t brought up to pretend.” Some people believe that these words are a nod to the incident where he slapped Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars.
At the 94th Academy Awards, an amusing jibe about Jada Pinkett Smith’s bald look was tossed by the actor from Everybody Hates Chris. In response, Will Smith, star of Hancock, unexpectedly charged onto the stage and slapped him, leaving a bewildered crowd in silence. Afterwards, back in his seat, Smith exclaimed, “Keep my wife’s name out your damn mouth!” Later on, Smith publicly apologized to Chris Rock for his actions.
In addition to alluding to the Oscars incident in this week’s freestyle, Smith’s upcoming 2025 album, titled “Based on a True Story,” delves deeper into the subject matter. The opening track of the album, collaborating with DJ Jazzy Jeff and B. Simone, appears to address the backlash he faced after the slap incident.
In a different song entitled “You Lookin’ For Me?”, Smith involves his spouse in the lyrics. He raps, “My personal life with my wife – keep out, it’s complex.
Online, there’s been a lot of talk about the lyrics that Will Smith used, as Chris Rock hasn’t spoken up about it yet.
