This article is filed under Characters.

Will Smith is an actor, rapper, and the main character of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. He was born and raised in West Philadelphia, which was on a playground where he spent most of his days chillen' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool and all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school, and also starred and produced a few movies.

How He Became The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

Let's face it, you most likely came here for this, so yeah...

Now this is a story all about hell how

My life got flipped, turned upside down

And I'd like to take a minute and just sit right here

And tell you how I became the Prince in a town called Bel-Air.

In West Philadelphia, born and raised

On a playground where I spent most of my days

Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool

And all, shootin' some b-ball outside of the school

Will Smith being a gangsta.

Where a couple of bad guys who were up to no good

Started making trouble in my neighborhood

I got into one little fight and my mom got scared

And said "You're movin' with you're Auntie and Uncle in Bel-Air."

(optional lyrics #1)

I begged and pleaded with her day after day

But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way

She gave me a kiss and she gave me my ticket

I put my walkman and said "I might as well kick it!"

(continued optional lyrics #1)

First class, yo this is bad

Drinking orange juice out of a champagne class

Is this what the people of Bel-Air living like?

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM, this might be alright.

(optional lyrics #2)

But wait I hear they're prissy, bourgeois and all that

Is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat?

I don't think so, I'll see when I get there

I hope they're prepared for the Prince of Bel-Air.

(continued optional lyrics #2)

Well-uh, the plane landed and when I came out

There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out

I ain't trying to get arrested yet, I just got here

I sprang with the quickness and lightning, disappeared.

(end optional lyrics)

I whistled for a cab and when it came near

The lisence said "Fresh" and it had dice in the mirror

If anything I can say this cab was rare

But I thought "Nah, forget it." - "Yo homes, to Bel-Air!"

I. Pulled. Up to the house, about 7 or 8

And I yelled to the cabbie "Yo homes, smell ya later."

I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there

To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air.

...And that's pretty much the jist of things here.

Trivia

• He apparently was born on July 3, 1979 in the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, yet he was on September 25, 1968. Wow, what a major fuck-up that was.
• He likes to make fun of Carlton and Uncle Phil.
• If a movie were to ever be made for Barack Obama, he'd want Will Smith to play him.

• One time, he dreamed about having a perfect life of his own and having three sons named Magic, Wilt, and Michael. Guess what these names stand for.
• He used to be in a rap duo with his childhood friend DJ Jazzy Jeff entitled DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince. Obviously, you could tell which role he played there.
