Throughout her life, Coco Jones displays her versatility as a multifaceted talent. As a successful star of the newly released show Bel-Air, she continued to nurture her career as a recording artist with the release of her brand-new single “Caliber” and a host of covers and performance appearances along the way. Coco’s upcoming debut EP, set for release later this year, features “Caliber” as the first advance track.

It’s been a busy year for Coco Jones, thanks to her performance as Hilary Banks, Will Smith’s blood cousin in Peacock’s new reimagining of the iconic “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” Jones spoke to GQ about how it feels to step into such a prestigious role, and what it means for her future:

It feels like my journey as a child actor to a young adult to an adult has resulted in many opportunities that have looked good, but everything that glitters isn’t gold.

As someone who has grown up in this industry, I’ve learned that who I am, what I do, and what I bring are more than enough to make the right move.
