Biography

"Wild Wild West" is a song by American actor and rapper Will Smith from the 1999 film of the same name, in which he also starred. It was released on May 11, 1999, as a single for the film's soundtrack and as the lead single from his second studio album Willennium (1999). The song plays during the film's closing credits. The song became a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100, and its extended music video, directed by Paul Hunter, was a hit on MTV. Will Smith's "Wild Wild West" single samples Stevie Wonder's 1976 hit song "I Wish", with parts of the chorus from Kool Moe Dee's song of the same name as well. Kool Moe Dee re-performs that chorus for the song, with additional guest vocals from the group Dru Hill. The album version of the song is introduced by a brief spoken word interlude where Smith asks his then-baby son Jaden what song he should play next, interpreting Jaden's repeated non-verbal response as "Wild Wild West". The song was the recipient of the 1999 Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Original Song while it was also nominated for a Blockbuster Entertainment Award for Favorite Song from a Movie. This song later appeared in the video game Just Dance 4 and was also sampled by Neil Cicierega in his song "Wow Wow" from his album Mouth Moods.
