The classic hit from actor/singer Will Smith, which speaks well right now about the heat wave that has hit the east coast, called "Summertime". One of the few hip-hop songs I like. Enjoy. :)=^..^=

It said actor/singer Will Smith....I didn’t hear any singing just someone reciting some words. Is there another video where Smith actually sings? (smirk)
Well in the world of hip-hop, talking is a form of singing to the performers. This is why I am not a fan of the so-called music of hip-hop. But this song by Will Smith is my way of having fun during this heat wave. :)
Good song,, and the way he delivers it is great, i couldn’t do it. And why fight it,, Blues, Jazz, Rock, all started as a black thing. Then whites copied the genre. Now it’s happened with rap,,,,
But i can’t see how anyone wouldn’t like that song.
And for all the BS as to how rap is only an expression of inner city life,,, this is more of an expression of that life that more than most wanna be gangstas care to admit.

Have fun, and ignore my snide remarks.
