LL always does dope interviews and all these years later he’s still a student of hip hop recognizing the evolution of the game. So many jewels dropped. True legend
How can you not be inspired by LL Cool J his business sense and ability to jump from music-film-fashion owning his own master's for 20yrs he got NCISLA Lip Sync Battle he did the grammys hosting. Rock The Bell radio this Brotha stay with the bag eating and got a healthy catalog I also love how LL and Cube be out here rooting for each other attending each other event's They both navigate in the same pool. with no shady no funny BS just grown up shit We need more black brilliant men like that
LL is that dude that just eclipses top 10 lists. My mind puts him in his own hemisphere nobody else can touch, because no one besides LL could have ever done things in his style and been just as successful. He has the kind of indescribable X-Factor very few artists have. He’s a living legend. Like a human myth.
Well said! That's why I ALWAYS considered LL the first TRUE total package in rap. By that I mean having the elite lyrical ability, love in the streets, range in music, diverse fanbase, mainstream appeal, and numbers (records sold) as a package!! Epic MC's like Rakim, Kane, G Rap, Slick Rick, and KRS in that era DIDN'T have the total package that LL did. YET LL was still a great MC among the best in the world! Later down the road, legends like Cube, Snoop, Pac, BIG, Hov, DMX, Wayne, Kendrick, etc. were great total packages as well. BUT frankly, LL was the PIONEER! WAYYYYY ahead of his time!!!
He didn't create Hip-Hop, but LL was Hip-Hop's first major superstar. He definitely needs to be in the G.O.A.T. conversation. He created the term for Christ's sakes.
Even for me who I always felt that rappers/MCs should write their own stuff, even for me it was still unclear if they can still represent or not... but that SO SIMPLE analogy blew my mind! Some rappers are like some presidents who have their speeches written by other people - SHAME on you! People look up to you and think that YOU are a leader, but you only an image...
LL in my opinion that was the first great TOTAL PACKAGE MC that had that huge mainstream impact. LL had the lyrical ability, street cred, diverse fanbase, and numbers to back it up. KRS, Kane, G Rap, Rakim, and Slick Rick in that era were considered more skilled MC's by many. BUT LL was still a very skilled MC himself. And the KEY WAS LL was THE ONE who was the best total package! Hov, BIG, Pac, Kendrick, Wayne, etc. are also great total packages. But LL was the ORIGINAL in my opinion. When these type of MC's are at their peak, they are among the biggest stars in MUSIC in general. Not just hip-hop!!
Uncle L set the blueprint for solo hip hop artists. Had that Mainstream appeal yet still heavily respected on the mic and ready to battle anyone at any place, any time.
The real GOAT and king of the hip hop genre. Don’t get it twisted. This man pioneered the game for several solo acts. This man outlasted every single person in his contemporary! The most important artist in hip hop.
So that would be Kool G Rap, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, LL Cool J, Slick Rick, KRS - One. I'm going by my dad's discography as a 29 year old man speaking here.
You're right over the decades I have been mindful of this, and that's why he remains in mine, although "Top 5" is too short a number when listing the all time greats in Hip-Hop.
Don't forget about Freddie Fox. And he's still spitting hard. Matter of fact he's on the new Onyx/snowgoons albums. Madsnow. Album is fire. Check it out
I totally agree. I thought this man was HARD AS HELL. But then L started to focus on the ladies. Once that happened. He lost some male fanbase. This was 1980's hiphop. Things were different then.
the Original rock da bells hit different then any song at that time. a 16 year old kid is not supposed to spit that shit the way he did and it was next level shit.
This dude been around and in the game a long time. He carries himself in a different way and I think people somehow feel he's not authentic when it comes to hip-hop. I love how he don't need no hype-man, he just a solo artist in the game doing his own thang.
LL Cool J is a super legend definitely the g.o.a.t I have absolutely enjoyed every album legend LL Cool J has made dope albums if he makes a new album I absolutely can't wait and not only that a dope actor as well very very talented brother anyway nuff respect to Legend LL Cool J👊🏽 One Love to old school hip-hop forever✊🏽
LL needs to come out with an album named "Heard of G.O.A.T.S." Include Rakim, Kane, Krs 1, Kool G Rap, CL Smooth, Run, Black Thought, Rass Kass, Queen Latifah, Lyte, ect

much respect to this man. If it wasnt for him i wouldnt know rap music. im born in 85. first rap song i fell in love with was "Boomin System". Living legend!!!
The world definitely needs to show LL his roses, I think he’s top 5 MC, actually number 1, forget anyone trying to refute that, no one did it better than LL Cool J
Listen to “Why do you think they call it dope”, “Nitro” and “It gets no rougher” while keeping in mind that they were recorded in 1989... LL is one of the 🐐 with out a doubt
He don’t get his due cuz most people remember the 90s 00s LL and him making a lot of love type songs and forget about 80s LL who could bring the house down and dropped some of the most iconic albums in history. But even the older LL could still bang out some bars he deserves his spot in the HOF I always loved the honors show where Em and black thought rocked out Rock the Bells LL was loving every bit of it
201wudy yeah that was the name of his album , remember he dropped that album late 99-early 2000 by then he was already considered one of that greatest of all time before him I only heard the term used with Rakim and Krs one LL was the first that I actually thought it was true lol
Loved this interview. If you weren't around for 80's LL you don't understand how the term & meaning of "Hardcore" has changed over the decades since. The man has opened doors & paved the way for future artist in so many ways its incredible. LL cool J is the "G.O.A.T" !!!
Cozmik funk rabbitt listen to “Why do you think they call it dope”, “Nitro” and “It gets no rougher” while keeping in mind that they were recorded in 1989
Man, LL is doing a lot of good work and you can tell it's from the heart. Jay-Z do one thing it becomes a press run. Start showing guys like him more respect. He is probably the only legend that owns all of his work.
@@geauxbosshawggo8694 smh being technical for no reason yeah I know Biggs and dame own part of RD Biggs even said in a vladtv interview that he’ll never sell or and he’ll pass it on to his son

BlackPDigitalMedia Wrong. The oldest millenials were in 5th/6th grade when Mama Said Knock You Out was out and were in high school when “Doin’ It” was everywhere. LL is ours too. His career didn’t end in ‘87. He was hot in the 90s too.
What happened to you against Dizaster? I just knew you was gonna eat Diz for lunch. Go back and get your respect back. No note pads this time. I’ve been waiting years to say this to you. You were the illest ever. Wtf happened man?
When LL Speaks, You have to listen. My first Album I heard in full for rom him was G.O.A.T and he was So Raw on there. People Forget that Dude Gets Busy. And I'm From The South.I respect Him to the Fullest.
Life changing moment for me was when LL said “Box” in Krush Groove”. My first cassette tape I bought with my own money from mowing yards in the neighborhood.
LL is Definitely in my Top 10 and I go back to day 1. I'm very proud of him and everyone who is still around and doing well. We're blessed to be born at this time! Hip Hop Lives Forever!
45 minutes worth of interview with a rapper, and the N-word is missing from this conversation. And they actually talked about rapping!!! Wow you can have a conversation without using it....
This was a dope interview with LL Cool J I just like his story telling he reminds me of a Slick Rick I started watching him on NCIS Los Angeles season 11 the new season is so fire for real for real keep it up and keep those great vids coming as always peace and stay blessed bro.
Ladies Love Cool J❣️ I am 51 and yes I remember going to concerts screaming for L back in the day. 😍 Forever grateful for what L has done for true rap. 💕
Nah... I've never slept on LL Cool J... I used keep rewinding "I Shot Ya" Remix, on VHS when I was younger back in the day. He been killing the Battles... (even though I didn't want him and Canibus to battle, it was still good). Plus he brought in other Artists from back in the day...and that song is the first time I think I heard Prodigy and Fat Joe... think I already heard Keith Murray... but when I saw and heard Foxy Brown... I was like "Who the F*ck is that?" Sexy and Spitting Flames... Yessir. #ThoseWhereTheDays #That90sShitWillNeverDie #RealHipHopExists #LondonUK #WeHerePeace
The story of Hip-Hop cannot be written without LL Cool J!
Cool jason so true
Facts.
Vital contribution
Yes. That's how I feel about Remy Ma. Her comeback story is crazy.
Hip Hop needs to start putting emphasis on Master Rappers. LL is definitely a Master Rapper.
The fact that LL owns ALL of his masters makes his longevity and success in the game no mystery. Indeed.
This elite Emcee said” Rakim should be considered the same as Bob Dylan with his Pen” Rakim the ultimate!!
True ndeed
LL always does dope interviews and all these years later he’s still a student of hip hop recognizing the evolution of the game. So many jewels dropped. True legend
LL Cool J the greatest of all-time!!!! If you dont respect him you dont respect hip-hop as a whole!
Cool j is in top 5 all time mcs and put hip hop in map in NYC and worldwide.l still got his 1st album to this day
Best thing about Sway's show is he let's the guess talk without interruptions.
At this point LL Cool J should own Def Jam. When I think Def Jam I think LL Cool J. Who else agrees or what are your thoughts?
Completely agree
RealVersatile Facts 💯
Speak on it
Agreed
Without question
How can you not be inspired by LL Cool J his business sense and ability to jump from music-film-fashion owning his own master's for 20yrs he got NCISLA Lip Sync Battle he did the grammys
hosting. Rock The Bell radio this Brotha stay with the bag eating and got a healthy catalog
I also love how LL and Cube be out here rooting for each other attending each other event's
They both navigate in the same pool. with no shady no funny BS just grown up shit
We need more black brilliant men like that

LL is definitely one of the greats. No doubt.
Beautiful phrase, well put, agreed, wonderful well done
Well said!!
Make some noiseeeeeeee!!!!!!
Living Legend Cool James...
LL is that dude that just eclipses top 10 lists. My mind puts him in his own hemisphere nobody else can touch, because no one besides LL could have ever done things in his style and been just as successful. He has the kind of indescribable X-Factor very few artists have. He’s a living legend. Like a human myth.

LL was the PIONEER! WAYYYYY ahead of his time!!!
The GOAT who literally made up the acronym ... He’s been holding it down well for the culture. Much love to this King 👑 He’s truly legendary 💯
He didn't create Hip-Hop, but LL was Hip-Hop's first major superstar. He definitely needs to be in the G.O.A.T. conversation. He created the term for Christ's sakes.
Maaaaan nobody really didnt want to battle with him either.

LL is BEYOND goat status at this point..
he is the TEMPLATE
@@BlackPDigitalMedia That is facts.
UrbanVideoPlus Factz he was my first favorite Emcee
That Michael Jordan analogy about writing own lyrics is ON POINT. Best Ever. Hahahaha
Write our own lyrics move our own bodys fo our own drumbeat
Even for me who I always felt that rappers/MCs should write their own stuff,
even for me it was still unclear if they can still represent or not... but that SO SIMPLE analogy blew my mind!
Some rappers are like some presidents who have their speeches written by other people - SHAME on you!
People look up to you and think that YOU are a leader, but you only an image...
I like Rock The Bells (original version with the cow bells)
I feel LL is somehow slept on and disrespected when people talk about hip hop. It’s gotta stop
Depends on the generation....
Agreed 100%
Still in my Top 5. 💯💯💯

Nah,, Not Really.

As a kid LL was the hardest rapper alive. As a teenager DMX was to me.
Don't forget about Freddie Fox. And he's still spitting hard. Matter of fact he's on the new Onyx/snowgoons albums. Madsnow. Album is fire. Check it out

SWAY is the Best!! That was an Amazing introduction!!!
Nah... I've never slept on LL Cool J... I used keep rewinding "I Shot Ya" Remix, on VHS when I was younger back in the day. He been killing the Battles... (even though I didn't want him and Canibus to battle, it was still good). Plus he brought in other Artists from back in the day...and that song is the first time I think I heard Prodigy and Fat Joe... think I already heard Keith Murray... but when I saw and heard Foxy Brown... I was like "Who the F*ck is that?" Sexy and Spitting Flames... Yessir. #ThoseWhereTheDays #That90sShitWillNeverDie #RealHipHopExists #LondonUK #WeHerePeace
