Will Smith Co-signs Blaccmass Remix of "Pretty Girls," Puts Song on Streaming

The new version comes after fans were debating on whether the single sounded better sped-up or slowed-down.

Will Smith's new song "Pretty Girls" has been given the Blaccmass remix treatment — you can check it out below.

Earlier this month, the Academy Award-winning actor dropped the single, which features on his comeback album Based on a True Story, but fans were divided on whether "Pretty Girls" was better sped-up or slowed-down.

On Thursday (June 26), Blaccmass inserted himself into the mix with a new funky take of the song, which Smith has since shared on streaming services.

Blaccmass posted a one-minute teaser of the song on X, shouting out "Uncle Will." The song was also dubbed over a clip from the "Viva Lost Wages" episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, where Smith and Carlton Banks (Alfonso Ribeiro) participated in a dance competition to win $10,000.

Blaccmass is known for flipping classic production with contemporary songs, which he's popularized on TikTok.

Produced by OmArr and Lexoskeleton, the original version of "Pretty Girls" hears Will 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 raps on the second verse.

Smith recently performed the single during a DJ AG livestream (seen around the 20-minute mark below), where pop singer and actor Rita Ora made a special appearance.

Live from London's Kings Cross Station, Smith also performed some of his classics, including "Summertime," "Switch," "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" and "Men In Black."

While in London, Smith stopped by to see Charlie Sloth and perform a new "Fire in the Booth" freestyle.

Uploaded on Thursday (June 26), Smith appears to allude to the moment he slapped Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars after the comedian made a comment about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.

"If you talking crazy out your face up on the stage and disrespect me on the stage, expect me on the stage," the Philly actor raps without saying any names.
