Will Smith Debuts New, Motivational Single at BET Awards
“I don’t know who needs to hear this right now, but whatever’s going on in your life right now, I’m here to tell you, you can make it.” So Will Smith opened his performance at the 2024 BET Awards. Of course, we know who needs to hear this (Will Smith at the 2022 Oscars) and whatever was going on that person’s life right now (the slap). Smith was saying if he can make it through that insane media storm, we can make it through whatever we’re going through. “You Can Make It” is Smith’s first new music since 2017. It’s a motivational, inspirational piece in the “Dwayne Johnson’s verse on ‘Face Off’” school. Smith performed his pep talk in the valley where Aang faced off against Fire Lord Ozai, backed by Fridayy and the Sunday Service choir. He displayed his mastery of the elements, as the staging included earth, air, fire, and water.
