Will Smith & Martin Lawrence Talk ‘Bad Boys’ Trilogy, Growth, Regrets + More

how it affects them and uh, but for the most part I just want to give people what I feel, you know, and that's what I do, how your kids look at you when you do it, they look at you like Martin, the guy from Comedy, like Come on, Dad, or is it one of those things where you're just Dad, and the same with you, I'm just Dad, Dad, I'm just Dad, Dad, you're so dumb. I'll be doing anything Dad, he's just a dumb dad, my kids don't know that. I'm, I'm sexy, I'm trying to say that I feel like he made a life icon.

Yeah, it's like Jaden, you know he did that. I remember. when I first heard that I thought that record was crazy and I thought I'm like I'm having breakfast with hey man, do you think I can jump on that? Ask J. I thought this is crazy. I'll jump on him if I want to jump on him, but yeah, he's like my kids, my kids, yeah, they just they, they, they think I'm, I'm dumb and I can't get him to see that it's me. I'm hot, I wanted to hear you smile for Little Doall, my best life because I mean, if you look at the G, you're a person living your best life, no, I'm definitely living my best life, man, it's like that when I jumped.

From that helicopter, I moved on to the next phase, uh, you know of my life in a way that, this last year has been the best year of my adult life, when it jumped, I thought the movie wasn't going to work. I just said one damn thing and then they said he was swimming with sharks. Damn, I once heard you say there's nothing your wife could do. He misses Jada Pinker Smith for breaking up the relationship. How, as a husband, how do you know that? no, we, we, you know, we, we, we, we have been uh, savagely tested, you know, we, we, we, we have, uh, we, we have tested each other, you know, we have witnessed our our commitment, uh, with the partnership that we have.

We've tested our commitment to our family and you know there's a certain amount of, let's say, battery that you have to put each other through to know that you're really down, you know it and you know it's nothing. I'm

talk

ing about The Breakfast Club, but change the red table to whatever your next question is, whatever your next question is, it's just one. I see where this is going, whatever your next why no, I could because I've been watching you, I know you. It's ignorant patterns, you have ignorant patterns, yeah, you have the setup, you do the setup and then your eyes do this little thing and you sit down, you make an innocent face, you throw one and then you cum. with which you have no reason to ask, that is none of your concern.

Just wondering if you were ever jealous of J's love for Tupac? you know, and that was in the early days, yeah, that was in the early days and it was like, um, that was a big regret for me too because I could never, um, I could never open up to interact with Pac. You know and because we were kind of right, because you know, you know, they grew up together and you know they loved each other, but they never had that, you know, they never had a sexual relationship, but they had gotten to that age where Now that was a possibility and then Jada was with me, you know, so you know, Pac had a thing for that, um, but she just loved him like he was the picture of perfection, but she was with the Fresh Prince, you know, so it was like I.

I just never liked him, even though we were in a room together a couple of times, I didn't get to

talk

to him, you know, and you know, he wasn't going to talk to me if I wasn't going to talk to him, but I really liked him. They have a lot in common, no that's what Jada said all the time, she was like telling them that they are so similar that they

will

love him and I never knew it, that was a big regret on my part. I just didn't, I couldn't, I couldn't handle it, you know, I was this, I was the smooth Philly rapper and he was crazy, you know, he didn't make this song about you or anything, I know exactly. exactly, but yeah, no, he was deeply, deeply, um, uh, insecure, um, and he just wasn't man enough to handle that relationship.

Everyone feels like they have something to prove, right now, right now. I don't feel like I have anything to prove, but I'm not done. I feel like I have a lot

more

to do because, well, they give them a lot. or like they're talking about a bad streak you're having at the box office and you know it like once you were a Blockbuster like those things bother you like you know what it's like um I have um I made the transition from my material world Journey um to uh , my inner journey and not in a strange way, just in a way, I have to be okay with me.

I don't care what other people think and it's like I don't even look at the box office any

more

. I don't even want that in my mind comparing myself to what other people do and I had a brief moment there where I was stuck on the rock, you know, and him making all these billion dollar movies and I was stuck and that animal he woke up. again, but I thought, you know how it is um, I realize that there is never enough, you

will

never make enough money, if you engage in sex, you will never have enough sex, you will never have enough of anything in the material world, so now I'm in my space where I'm letting that go and I just have to be good to myself, I have to walk happy and comfortable with myself no matter what anyone else thinks, you know, and that's where I am right now detoxing my addiction to numbers, victories and comparisons, that's why, because you're Will Smith and you're Martin Lawrence, as if he didn't exist, you shouldn't compete with anyone but yourself.

Martin reached out to Netflix. about doing a special or a series because you have the tour, you have all the comics, you don't have them yet, but I'm sure I could do one if I wanted to with them and everything, but um, I don't want to just do one. just to make one, I want to make one that's special and has something because I feel like you need to make something complete. I mean, if you were Mr. Comedy Jam, you could make yourself mention other up-and-coming comics. Put them on and do their own thing, yeah, and maybe Lor, we can bring Lor to Netflix, okay, but we appreciate you joining us, we can talk about a lot of good things, don't keep doing, don't keep doing what you're doing .

What's crazy is that he also has the balls. It's like, yeah, I didn't want to make any mistakes. what kind of lying down if he sat down I invited you to come You're Will Smith Martin for life okay the club good morning
