Black history fact #25: Will Smith
from A Day With Crime Podcast Hosted by David McClam
Will Smith wins first ever Rap Grammy One day I went around at work and asked a bunch of 18 to 21 year olds if they knew what Will Smith’s first profession was. Everyone of them said Actor. When I said no I was argued down even when I showed them his discography. Will Smith was and still is a Rapper. Over the years he has done more acting, but he still can work a mic. In 1988 WIll Smith and Jazzy Jeff who were known as DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, won the first ever Rap Grammy. Back then the rap portion of the show was not televised, so it was not shown. They won for the song Parents Just don’t understand. WILL SMITH https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Smith
