Well, what would expect of a video featuring Will Smith. The guy is always associated with big budgeted ventures and this music video is no exception. What can possibly justify the large amount spent on the music video is that it serves the dual function of promoting the movie of the same title.

    I’ve been surfing online more than 3 hours lately, but I by no means found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s beautiful price enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made just right content as you did, the
    net might be much more helpful than ever before.
