After a significant break from the music industry, Smith has released his latest single, “You Can Make It,” marking his first new track since his 2017 EDM hit “Get Lit.” The single also represents his return to studio recordings since his last album in 2005.
“You Can Make It” features the soulful harmonies of the Sunday Service Choir and showcases a collaboration with rising artist Fridayy. The song carries a powerful and uplifting message, drawing from Smith’s personal experiences and past challenges, including his infamous incident at the 2022 Oscars with Chris Rock.

Smith recently shared a snippet of himself playing the piano instrumental of “You Can Make It” on social media, offering fans a glimpse into his creative process. He captioned the post with a poignant message: “Through some of my darkest moments, music has always been there for me — to lift me and help me grow. It’s my humble wish that it can do the same for you and bring you all the joy and light you deserve.”
The actor-turned-musician expressed his excitement about returning to the stage, announcing that he will perform “You Can Make It” live at the 2024 BET Awards on Sunday, June 30. This performance is highly anticipated by fans and marks a significant moment in Smith’s career, as he blends his passion for music with his personal journey of growth and healing.
