Will Smith has returned to his rap roots after a decade of hiatus as he features on the remix of Colombian dance group, Bomba Estéreo’s ‘Fiesta’.

The 47-year-old former member of the Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince duo turned actor spits rhymes in both English and Spanish over the Colombian band’s dance anthem.

A music video for the collaboration which features Smith rapping in Spanish was recently filmed in Los Angeles, USA and will premiere in the near future.

Smith hinted at a ‘Fiesta’ collaboration last month when he posted a selfie with the group on Facebook to congratulate them for receiving multiple nominations at the upcoming Latin Grammy.

The Hancock star still has his humour present as he raps with lines like “Hola mamacita, go get me a beer-a!, no gas for me, I’m a Tesla!”

Other than occasionally appearing on late-night shows, Smith has largely abandoned the music industry since the release of his 2005 LP Lost and Found.
