Will Smith's 1998: Vintage Pop Superstardom (with Todd in the Shadows)

We've seen plenty of pop stars and plenty of movie stars in our lifetime, but only one entertainer who has ever been one of the very biggest stars in both mediums at the same time. On this Vintage Pop Stardom episode of the Greatest Pop Stars podcast, host Andrew Unterberger is joined by YouTube star and Song vs. Song podcast co-host Todd in the Shadows to talk about 1998 Will Smith — the year of "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It," "Just the Two of Us," "Miami," 'Enemy of the State' and a period of across-the-board dominance that made him an idol to suburban 12-year-olds worldwide.
