357. Jeremiah Craft on Jaden Smith 'Erys' (2019)

<p>Today actor/musician <strong>Jeremiah Craft</strong> (Bill & Ted Face the Music, Girls 5Eva) joins me to delve into the newest album we’ve ever covered on the show, <strong>Jaden Smith’</strong>s 2019 LP ‘Erys’.<br /> We talk about the ambition of the record, how it acts as a conceptual sequel to Jaden’s debut ‘Syre’, how <strong>Will Smith</strong> inspired Jeremiah to start acting, the pressures of living up to famous parents, why this is one of the few albums Jeremiah listens to in full and more.<br /> Plus we discuss creating characters and Jeremiah’s process for playing <strong>Louis Armstrong</strong>, what his dream role would be, the contrasts between stage, film and TV acting and how playing other people can reveal truths about yourself.</p>
