Bought this CD because I saw the video to the song "Thousand Kisses", it has to be the most beautiful song that he has ever written & the fact that Jade sings this with him, wow. I like most of the songs on this CD though some of his earlier music leaves something to be desired. His music has gotten better with age.

I ordered this CD to use with Quantum Learning. It is good because the language is acceptable for most students.

One of the most successful and, more importantly, lyrically respectable rappers, the multi-faceted career of Will Smith should understandably make a lot of other rappers jealous. As the "Fresh Prince" half of DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, he rapped his way to one of the definitive summer anthems in history, the aptly-titled "Summertime". Unfortunately, like many other rappers, both talented and not-so-talented, he has a fairly intense craving for samples, and to that end, he uses too many great songs that were just fine as they were, and makes no effort at all to hide that fact. On "Men In Black" which borrows from the classic Patrice Rushen hit "Forget Me Nots", he even has Cheryl "Coko" Gamble of SWV singing to the tune of it in a very Rushen-esque voice. As I said before, though, I do have high regard for his rapping ability.

This is an album that I wake up to every day now! Fantastic!!!

If you are a Will Smith fan and don't have any of his albums, buy this. It is hit after hit after hit. I love playing this one in the car with friends around, because everyone loves a little Will Smith in their lives! People are always surprised at how many songs of his they know, and they ask "Is that Miami song on here? What about the Willennium one?"

I think this would make a great gift as well, in fact I think I bought mine with a gift certificate!
