Will Smith: 'Kanye West has been pushing me to get back into music'

Hollywood actor Will Smith has revealed that 'All Of The Lights' hitmaker Kanye West has been encouraging him to move away from film sets and back into the recording studio.

While speaking to HipHollywood.com about his forthcoming new movie 'After Earth', which is due to be released on May 31, Smith explained that the rapper has been trying to push him back into music:

"I've been messing around with Kanye. We went in the studio a couple times, so I might get the bug. I'm not going to do it unless I'm truly inspired, but Ye's been pushing me a little bit."

Back in February, the pair were spotted in the studio together while in Brazil (shown below), but nothing from the session has ever been released to the public.

Meanwhile, 'After Earth' is the new offering from M. Night Shyamalan and Smith stars alongside his son Jaden (pictured above left) in the science fiction action motion picture.
