After 20 long years, Will Smith returns to rap, releasing his 10th studio album, “Based on a True Story” on March 28.
Will Smith has already released 5 singles from the album. Will plans to release 3 albums this year in the Based on a True Story album theme. He is releasing each album as a different season, similar to a TV show. Rave in the Wasteland is season 1. The second season is called, “The Gift of Madness” and will be released late June and is a more positive album. The third album will be released later in the year. The tracklisting for Rave in the Wasteland is as follows:

So we know DJ Jazzy Jeff at least appears on the opening track, which makes 40 years of Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince making music together. The album is executive produced by Omarr Rambert, O-Money from the Too Damn Hype Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince dance crew.
Will Smith will be doing a world tour in the summer to support the album. He already has dates locked in from China through all of Europe and hopes to return to a full stadium tour in America as well.
