‘BEL-AIR,’ the hotly anticipated reboot of ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,’ takes its throne next month on Peacock. 

Based on the iconic Will Smith-led sitcom, the reimagined incarnation of the show sees it revived as a dramedy – as first seen in Morgan Cooper‘s highly viral 2019 teaser.

Smith is heavily involved in the show’s reimagining as he, Quincy Jones, and Benny Medina reprise their roles as co-producers (after having served in similar capacities during the run of the original).

Rising actor Jabari Banks takes on Smith’s iconic role in the series, which will premiere Super Bowl Sunday (February 13) with three episodes initially and one episode a week thereafter.

Ahead of its arrival on the NBC-helmed streaming service, check out the first full-length trailer below…

Amid criticism for the lack of diversity among its voting committee and winners, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – the organization responsible for the annual Golden Globes – looked to shed the negative press by awarding one of its most varied slew of winners yet aboard its 79th annual ceremony Sunday (January 9).

Ahead of historic victories from the likes of Will Smith, ‘Pose’ star MJ Rodriguez, and more (as we reported here), fans of music megastar Beyoncé were hoping the Globes would kick off its trot down diversity lane by awarding the Best Original Song trophy to her tune, ‘Be Alive’ (found aboard the ‘King Richard’ soundtrack).

Not long into the untelevised show’s run, the dreams of ‘Be Alive’ winning were deadened.

From ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’ to ‘Ali,’ ‘Gemini Man,’ and many more, Will Smith has brought no shortage of groundbreaking and critically acclaimed roles to life over his tenured, 3-decade career.

Yet, despite being one of the most lauded actors of his time, the 53-year-old’s trophy case had been unforgivably devoid of the industry’s top acting honors – Academy Awards and Golden Globe Awards.

Today’s From The Vault pick is the classic that keeps on giving.

Spotlighted this week is 1998´s ‘They Don’t Know’ by R&B crooner Jon B.

Helmed by Tim & Bob, the track was written by the duo alongside Jon for his second studio album ‘Cool Relax.’

‘Thet Don’t Know’ was released as the project’s third single and went on to become the artist’s biggest hit to date – peaking at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #2 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop tally.

The track’s music video was directed by Christopher Erskin and follows Jon B as he rescues a damsel in distress…after getting a shape up at the barbershop, of course.

In signature, late 90´s fashion, Motorola cellphones, oversized clothes, and mob stories all made appearances in the visual.

*********

Though ‘Know’ made its first impression over 20 years ago, the release is once again getting its flowers afresh after being sampled on Gunna and Chlöe’s newly unwrapped jam ‘You & Me’.

With Chris Brown, Aaliyah, Chingy, and many others turning to this gem to create new tunes of their own, it is clearly regarded by many as a bonafide classic and will no doubt continue to be celebrated for decades to come.
