Will Smith Gushes Over All the “Pretty Girls” on Playful New Song

The single arrives on the heels of his first album in 20 years, 'Based on a True Story.'

Will Smith has shared his new single, “Pretty Girls” and its accompanying video via Slang Recordings — watch it above.

Produced by OmArr and Lexoskeleton, the track sees Smith admitting just how much he loves pretty girls. “All the pretty girls, put your drink up / I'll get you anything you think of / I like BBLs / That stand for ‘Bad bitches link up,’” the Grammy-Award winning artist says in the second verse.

The playful song follows Smith’s first full-length album release in 20 years, Based on a True Story – Season 1: Rave in the Wasteland, which arrived in March. The 14-track project boasts features from Jaden, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Teyana Taylor, Big Sean, and Russ, among others.

"Every song on the album is based on a real experience, which made me think this isn’t just a music project, it’s a series," Smith told Complex in April. "So I structured it like a TV show. This first batch of songs is Season 1, called Rave in the Wasteland. I already have Season 2 ready to go — I can’t wait to release it."

Smith is also gearing up for the Based on a True Story Tour, his first-ever headlining trek, which will kick off on July 13 in Hamburg, Germany, and see him perform in France, the UK, Italy, Morocco, and more.

The Based on a True Story album cut, "You Can Make It" with Fridayy and Sunday Service Choir recently hit No. 1 on the Billboard Gospel Airplay Chart, marking the 56-year-old’s first No. 1 single since 1998’s “Get Jiggy With It.”

Tickets are on sale for his tour here.
