If you grew up watching the Fresh Prince in action, you’d probably love this book. Smith tells readers about his childhood, his introduction to the hip hop scene, and later how he begins his career as an actor. I’m not big on memoirs, but Will had me unsure if I wanted to laugh or cry. Smith serves as a fantastic reminder of why it is important to find that work-personal life balance, as he explains his struggles and successes as he tries to navigate both parts of his lives. Smith does not hide the mistakes he has made, so this allows readers to get to know Will in a way we haven’t previously. He tackles universal issues such as anxiety, fear of abandonment, and much more. If you saw the conversation starting slap at the awards recently like I did, then this book just may help you understand what was going on in Smith’s head as that happened. I loved Smith as a kid, and I’ll still support him now 🤷🏼♀️
