Will Smith surprised the music world Friday when he appeared on Bomba Estéreo’s remix of “Fiesta,” but the rapper/actor reveals he’s been back in the studio on his own. In an interview with Zane Lowe on Monday, Smith said he’s recorded over two dozen tracks. “I’m pretty much poppin’ in the studio everyday and I’m looking for artists to collaborate with,” Smith said. ”I’ve probably recorded 30 songs. I have six or seven that I really like.”

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air star discussed the challenges of getting back in the studio after 10 years and says he’s still trying to find his voice. “I have so many things I wanted to say,” Smith explained. “I’m struggling with saying them that fit the flavor of the music I turn to.”
