“Many people can live a really fantastic life. Many people can
write a great book. There are few people I think who can translate
a fantastic life into a fantastic book. . . . It’s raw. . . . one
of the most anticipated yet unexpected memoirs that has ever come
out.” —Trevor Noah, The Daily Show
“The guy you think you know is just a fantasy. . . . With a new
book . . . [Will Smith] is finally ready to introduce himself. . .
. It is a 400-page page turner.” —T.J. Holmes, Good Morning
America
“It shows every high, every low, and the sheer will it took you to
become who you are. . . . I love the book. It’s fantastic.” —Jimmy
Fallon, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
“This book doesn’t waste any time. . . . Like a lot of families,
mine included, we talk about nothing. You took the carpet, you
shook it, you beat it with a broom, you let it all out. . . . The
book is so good.” —Hoda Kotb, TODAY with Hoda and Jenna
“Will is not just a gift for the reader but an absolutely
entertaining treat as well. . . . It’s filled with laugh out loud,
nostalgic references alongside poignant, powerful, relatable life
and career lessons. . . . While we often think of leaders as
successful, powerful . . . and oftentimes rich, Smith reminds us
that the best leaders are really vulnerable, relatable and
teachable.” —Forbes
“Will Smith isn't holding back in his bravely inspiring new
memoir . . . An ultimately heartwarming read, Will provides a
humane glimpse of the man behind the actor, producer and
musician, as he bares all his insecurities and
trauma.” —USA Today
“The real Smith, the one that yells, cries, experiences heartbreak,
is much more interesting. Early on, his act gives way to images of
unhealthy relationship patterns marked by people pleasing and
insecurity. Elsewhere, Will rewards music fans with memories
of hip-hop’s early days, when getting a song played on the radio
was a crowning achievement and selling rap albums was almost
inconceivable.” —Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
