Will Smith References Chris Rock Oscars Slap in Lyrics on New Album
Will Smith addresses his notorious Oscars slap head-on in his first new album in 20 years, ‘Based on a True Story’
Smith, 56, released his new album, Based on a True Story, on Friday, March 28, and it’s filled with lyrics that seemingly reference the 2022 Oscars moment when he unexpectedly walked on stage and slapped host Chris Rock. Robyn Beck / AFPSmith did not have to return his 2022 Best Actor Oscar for his role in the 2021’s King Richard, but he was banned from Academy Awards events for the next 10 years. Other singles on the album include “Work of Art,” featuring his and Jada’s son Jaden Smith and Russ, “Tantrum,” with Joyner Lucas and “You Can Make It.”
