The Fresh Prince and DJ Jazzy Jeff have confirmed they will be performing live shows in the UK this summer, summer, summertime!

‘I’ve been working on something and this time I’m not lying!’ Will Smith told the BBC’s Graham Norton Show on Friday night.

‘We’ve recorded about 25 songs and have four or five I actually like,’ Will admitted after being asked about his return to the music industry.

And then he added: ‘Jeff and I will be back here this summer to do shows – real shows.’


Will and Jazzy Jeff Townes met in the 1980s when they were trying to break into West Philadelphia’s local hip hop scene.



They went on to become Grammy award winners and in 2013 they reunited on Graham show to perform the theme tune to Will’s 90s sitcom The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air.

Will admitted in 2015 that he and Jeff already had 30 songs, telling Zane Lowe: ‘[There are about] six or seven that I really, really like, that I’m trying to get the ideas to come out right.’

And it was also in his interview that he revealed he was ‘pretty certain’ that he will embark on a world tour next year in the summer alongside DJ Jazzy Jeff.

Now the tour has been confirmed, we just want to know when tickets will go on sale…
