"Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance.
High points in this smoothly produced debut solo effort from the rapper formerly known as Fresh Prince include his occasional moments of tenderness, especially "Just the Two of Us," on which Smith addresses his young son against a sample of Bill Withers's song of the same name: "From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms/I knew I'd meet death 'fore I let you meet harm." Smith reveals another hint of vulnerability on "Forever," when he describes his girlfriend: "She...makes me feel that forever is a possibility."
What distinguishes BIG WILLIE STYLE, though, are the same playful mood and nimble rhymes that characterized Smith's DJ Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince days. He describes his modus operandi on the lyrically dexterous "Yes, Yes Y'all:" "I rip rhymes for the flow of it/you know the show of it/not the Benz 600 four-door of it/I'm-a rhyme regardless of earnin' long as my heart keeps yearnin'/I got's to keep burnin'."

Editorial reviews
...BIG WILLIE STYLE isn't high on INDEPENDENCE DAY caliber stunts--it's what you'd expect from a rapper who also happens to be one of the most popular actors in the world...
The Source  (12/01/1997)

...The saving grace of the former Fresh Prince is that, as an MC, he's never taken himself too seriously....BIG WILLIE STYLE's wisecracking, fun-filled material is expected--and fun to digest...
Vibe  (02/01/1998)

3.5 Stars (out of 5) - ...crackles with the lucid energy of early-'80s rap hits....he displays the confident craft of a screenwriter and the unthreatened bounce of a guy with little to prove....an exceptional megacelebrity album.
Rolling Stone  (12/11/1997)

3 stars out of 5 - ...Packed with impossibly summery hits...this film star really can rap.

 Nice condition on disc, liner notes, and case. Check out my other auctions and sales.  They are not in order by genre so I encourage you to check the whole list.  First CD ships via USPS First Class and will arrive very quickly.  Add $1 shipping for each additional disc purchased.  Please pay within a few days of your first purchase.  2CD+ orders go via USPS Media Mail.  This takes a bit longer (2-9 days).  Canada orders: $5 shipping for first disc; $1.50 each additional (7-10 days delivery after shipment). I ship orders on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (holiday weeks may vary).  As my feedback shows, most people are very happy with the speed of service.  If shipping does not calculate correctly at checkout, just add up what it is supposed to be and edit the shipping charge field.  If you prefer, you can contact me, and I will be happy to send an invoice with the correct charge.  I try to match CD's to the description as close as possible and note discrepancies.  If a particular detail (i.e. country of origin, record label, year of issue, remastered or not) is important to you, please contact me.  For orders outside of the US and Canada, please contact me and will let you know the shipping cost.  It will usually be $5-$7 for the first disc but varies depending upon a variety of factors.  International Customers:  Please ask about shipping cost without jewel cases.  Often, for larger orders, having them shipped without jewel cases will cut the shipping charge in half.
