Will Smith announced that he would be going on a new world tour during an interview with Beats 1 Radio’s Zane Lowe. The 47-year-old also admitting that he was “terrified” of the prospect of releasing new music.
“I’m at the beginning of the process, you know, shaking the rust off, knocking the dust off,” he said in reference to his new single, a collaboration with Bomba Estéreo called “Fiesta.”
He said that the process of coming back onto the music scene was “terrifying” and that although he is in the studio every day and has recorded about 30 songs, he is worried about failure.
“It’s crazy, ’cause when you’ve had a certain amount of success, it seems like it should breed confidence. But it actually doesn’t,” said Smith. “It’s the craziest thing. It’s like when you win a lot and you lose the ability to lose. You’re not allowed to lose anymore.”
But it seems like Smith’s music career is picking up steam, and he continued on to say that he was “pretty certain” he would be going on tour this summer.
“[DJ Jazzy] Jeff and I actually never have done a full tour,” said Smith. “I was always on ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,’ I was always making a movie so we’ve never actually done a full tour. So I’m looking for [this] summer to be the first time that we go out on a full world tour.”
