LL Cool J (Part 1 of 3)

Hip Hop Official presents a 3-Part spotlight on LL Cool J. For those of you not is the know, LL has a new album (#13) dropping next Tuesday, Sept 9th, titled Exit 13. He is the definition of longevity, over 25 years in the game - on the SAME record label, Def Jam (He was the first act on the legendary label).

For Part 1 of the series, our NY correspondent Shani Kulture hit the streets outside of HOT 97 to talk to the people (and radio personalities) about the living legend. He proved that not just the ladies love Cool James.

As a bonus, I included a track off LL's new album. The beat is smooth; he looped one of my favorite Gwen McCrae songs, "90% of Me Is You."
