Will Smith’s Fresh Prince Dance Goes Viral, But Fans Are Not Happy About This!

BBG News

In a fun twist, Will Smith became a trending topic online when he performed the famous dance from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alongside his ex-costar Tatyana Ali, along with an unexpected appearance by artist Doechii.

On Friday, they shared a video on social media featuring their revamped humorous tune, this time catering to a fresh audience. The backdrop music for this piece is the popular track “Anxiety” by the young artist, Doechii, aged 26.

Although the song brought joy to numerous fans, some expressed criticism about Doechii’s role in the music video, labeling her as a manufactured artist or “industry plant.

In her room, with earphones plugged in, Ashley Banks (Tatyana) was grooving to some tunes unaware that Smith had just walked in.

In my line of work as a lifestyle consultant, I found myself subtly attempting to catch her eye, yet my attempts fell flat. Intrigued by her graceful dance steps, I decided to mirror them unbeknownst to her, hoping it would pique her interest.

In my latest video, I’ve chosen the evocative track “Anxiety,” and found myself grooving in my cozy living space with my trusty headphones on. As I dance, my friend Smith walks in, at the age of 56, adding to the rhythm of our shared moment.

Smith proceeds to copy her dance moves, before Doechii appears and joins in on the fun.

‘Waited 35 years for this dance to trend,’ Will captioned the post.

It’s worth noting that although Doechii sings on the track, some people expressed dissatisfaction upon seeing her in the video, suggesting she may have been pressured or manipulated by the music industry to be there.

‘The Fresh Plant of Bel-Air,’ one commented of the dance.

‘Most obvious industry plant,’ another wrote.

‘Those industry plant rumors are becoming plausible,’ one observed.

‘They could have left Doechii out of it if we’re keeping it 100,’ another posted.

‘Why is the industry forcing Doechii on us,’ one asked.

‘Why’s the plant there?’ another asked.

‘Doechiiii spoilt it It’s should have been Tatyana and will,’ another wrote.  

17-year-old Doechii started sharing her music, and by 2024, she’d scaled the ladder of success enough to win a Grammy for her mixtape “Alligator Bites Never Heal.

However, that hasn’t stopped her from being hit with allegations of being an industry plant.

As a passionate music enthusiast, I’ve come across the term ‘industry plant,’ which refers to an artist who, despite having major or independent label support, portrays themselves as a grassroots, homegrown indie label. This clever strategy is used to cultivate a pseudo-organic fanbase.

In response to the accusations, Doechii explained to The Cut that when someone isn’t well-versed in an artist’s background these days, they can become wary or suspicious.

I’m not deeply involved emotionally since I can see its origin. To put it frankly, when rumors about my profession start circulating, it simply confirms that I’m making progress and doing things correctly.

Simultaneously, Smith is getting ready to make a comeback in the music scene by releasing his debut album after a gap of two decades.

Back in 2005, Smith unveiled his last studio album titled Lost and Found. Recently, he’s shared news about the forthcoming launch of his fifth album, which is called Based On A True Story.

The official announcement is here! My new album titled ‘Based On A True Story’ will be released on March 28, just two weeks away. Don’t forget to presave it. I’ve been working diligently on this project for some time now and I can hardly wait to share it with you all.

The post featured the album cover, track listing, and behind-the-scenes video of his cover shoot.

The picture features Will, who is saluting his Fresh Prince persona, wearing a Philadelphia varsity jacket and a baseball cap. He stands before a white background, casually tipping his hat with one hand.

Besides the 14 tracks, this album showcases performances by DJ Jazzy Jeff, B. Simone, Rave Sermon, Jac Ross, Teyana Taylor, Obanga, and his child, Jaden Smith.

Based On A True Story will be released on March 28.
