Will Smith, whether you like him or not these days, is still one of the most influential people in pop culture. He's an award-winning actor and rapper and has built his name steadily over time from his beloved role on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air . He's been working his way back into the good graces of fans after the infamous Chris Rock slap.

"Imagine a n**** steal your dream and is given your crown because he ain’t wear a red hat and then the culture you built mad at you speaking up on it," he said in part.
