"The Prince Who Raised Us"
From the 90s “Sit Calm” Series
This piece is dedicated to the show that brought joy into countless homes—especially mine. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air wasn’t just television. It was therapy, laughter, music, and magic all in one. In moments when grief feels too heavy to carry, this show still finds a way to calm my spirit.
We all knew the theme song by heart—some of us better than we knew the national anthem. That intro alone could pull a smile out of you, no matter how tough the day had been. It became a ritual: getting home from school, grabbing a snack, and sitting down to watch history in the making without even knowing it.
What made Fresh Prince special was its boldness. It brought hip hop and Black culture into prime time—unapologetically. It raised a generation with humor, style, and heart. It wasn’t just funny—it was formative.
Artistically, what I love most about this piece is the contrast. The boldness of the logo and the intricate detail in Will’s t-shirt pop beautifully against the more minimal background. That balance gives the central figure the space to shine—just like he did every week on our screens.
This work is more than a nostalgic nod—it’s a thank you to the show that reminded us, even in chaos, to laugh, to love, and to stay fresh.
