Thanks, I hadn’t heard that but I just googled it and found several references.. Now I just need to check to see if this is accurate or a joke taken as literal (the quote I found was Smith saying “I always ask her before I cheat on her..” and then the stories build on that.. )
I know early in his career he made a point of having clean, positive lyrics..
Will Smith kept clean lyrics all through his career, not just the beginning:
“All you rappers yellin bout who you put in a hearse,
Do me a favor, write one verse without a curse.”
