Will Smith has been honored in his hometown of Philadelphia with a street renamed after him and a key to the city.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday (March 26), the superstar rapp<\/a>er\/actor was present as the 2000 block of North 59th Street in Philadelphia\u2019s Overbrook section became Will Smith Way.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith all of his accomplishments and success, wherever you see him in the world, he is unapologetic about letting you know that \u2018I\u2019m Will Smith, in West Philadelphia born and raised,\u2019\u201d Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker said, according to NBC Philadelphia<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Will told the crowd, \u201cNobody gets an easy ride, and that\u2019s one of the things these streets of Philadelphia taught me: that there is nothing wrong with a hard day\u2019s work.<\/p>\n
