WILL SMITH IS GOING ON A WORLD TOUR WITH JAZZY JEFF AND IT'S GOING TO BE JUST LIKE THE '90s ALL OVER AGAIN!*

*Well, almost.

Will Smith, aka The Fresh Prince, has revealed that he's got around 30 tracks ready to go and he's "pretty certain" he'll be going on a world tour in 2016 with his partner in funky crime, Jeffrey Allen Townes - aka DJ Jazzy Jeff.

Speaking to Zane Lowe on Beats 1, Big Willie explained that he's got “six or seven [tracks] that I really, really like, that I’m trying to get the ideas to come out right. I’m shaking the rust off, knocking the dust off”.

Before his career break - which lasted 10 long, unfunky years - Will released Switch, which was on the soundtrack to his film Hitch, and another track called Party Starter. Most recently, Will worked on a track with Bomba Estéreo’s song, Fiesta.

Nevertheless, Will is “terrified” of coming back to music in an age where everyone is twerking to dubstep, over vocoder-altered lyrics about YouTubers and posting their junk on Snapchat.

He said: “I’m from the era of 16 bars, hook, 16 bars, hook, bridge, hook, out.

“I’m definitely interested in pushing the envelope of spitting – how far can you go? I’ll keep giving it a shot up until I’m 70 or 80 years old.

“I’m just trying to still find that voice; I have so many things that I wanna say. I’m struggling with saying them in a way that fits the flavour of music that I tend to like.”

Will went on to reference the likes of Dr. Dre and Run The Jewels - who just released an album of remixed cat sounds - as his creative influences. Hmm, we reckon if you just re-release the soundtrack to Fresh Prince Of Bel Air you'll be fine, Will.

Although we'd be willing to bet our Men In Black trilogy boxset that Jaden and Willow Smith will be making toe-curling cameos on his album, as Will continues his mission to turn them into his living, breathing pension funds.
