Posdnuos and Maseo of De La Soul recently talked to Queen Latifah on their ‘Art Official Intelligence Radio with De La Soul’ show.
During the conversation, the duo made a revelation about Will Smith’s ‘Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’ series. Pos said, “A lot of people don’t know, yo, the ‘Fresh Prince’ thing was offered to us.” He continued saying, “They want us to do this? Russell [Simmons] was like, ‘Yo, y’all need to try out. Go out there.’ We was like, ‘Nah. We do rap and stuff.’ Honestly, we were scared. Seriously, we were scared.”
