My first record came out while I was a senior in high school, which is dangerous.
I've never really viewed myself as particularly talented. I've viewed myself as slightly above average in talent.
In my mind, I've always been an A-list Hollywood superstar. Y'all just didn't know yet.
I had to focus and create a character in Bagger Vance, not just do my 'Will Smith' thing and get paid.
I know how to learn anything I want to learn. I absolutely know that I could learn how to fly the space shuttle because someone else knows how to fly it, and they put it in a book. Give me the book, and I do not need somebody to stand up in front of the class.
The first time that I performed as an actor was the first day on the set of 'The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.'
