Will Smith’s comeback is causing a stir, as he releases the audio of his first song in 10 years.
Big Willie’s first teaser comes in the form of a remix of Bomba Estereo's dance hit ‘Fiesta’, as it is revealed that he has 30 new tracks and will do a tour with musical partner in crime DJ Jazzy Jeff.
Fans could not restrain their excitement, with some admitting that they clicked like before hearing the song, based on their blind love of Smith.
It also sparked fantasies of the star reviving his action blockbuster days.
“This is the type of song you can picture Will Smith as a cop rushing in the streets of a latin city, shooting badguys all over the place. I love it. A new Bad boys movie perhaps?” wrote DigitalBerserk.
As it turns out, this dream is becoming a reality, with a Bad Boys film set to be released by 2017, as confirmed by Smith in an interview on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 Radio show.
In the music world, Smith is not even close to being a bad boy, and is known for his clean-cut image, but YouTubers picked up on - and were shocked by - the use of the word “sh*t” in the new track. But others found the song to be quite tame in that department, with ‘chase mckinney’ saying he wished he could hear him “rap like a gangsta” at least once.
Of course, not everyone was impressed by the song, but Smith seems to have many die-hard fans in his corner.

SchneiderMan: This is what a mid-life crisis sounds like.
Kyle Scott: I have never heard a song sound so interesting. Good vibes.
Alf: I love Will, I love Bomba, I love electronic music, BUT. This song is sh*t, sorry, but it's another shitty song in our electronic music of today and any producer will agree.
D.Foxx: The people hating on this song are obviously fans of a different genres of music. Y'all act like Will Smith made this song for hip-hop fans. If you've heard his Born To Reign album or any of his albums, he's beats reminiscent of this although they were less edm.Just letting things clear, keep enjoying.
Roy Zemach: So now he's a Pitbull wannabe?
Christian Bates-Bahlhorn: I never liked Will Smith as a rapper, and this song reaffirms why...
XFanmarX:
1. Will Smith has a music comeback, yay! I've been waiting for this!
2. Holy sh*t it's some fake run-of-the-mill latino pop-song with an uninspired college-quality fart beat called 'party', but in spanish.
Will excuse me for asking but wtf are you doing? You're better then this brainless partyslut music.
