	LL Cool J
		Born in St. Albans, NY, LL earliest memories are of music - the jazz albums his grandfather would play, the r&b and rap tracks he heard on the syndicated television dance show, "Soul Train." Burning with the need to create rhymes, he was rapping by the time he was 9 years-old.
		LL is the former star of "In The House," the hit NBC turned UPN television series in which he played Marion Hill, a sidelined football player turned landlord and holistic rehabilitation center co-owner.
		LL says that, "I was extremely honored to perform for the prince, it was one of the most exciting moments of my recording career." Many performers would be content having succeeded in the music, acting and literary fields, but LL continues to seek new challenges.

	Rock On The Net: LL Cool J
		LL Cool J (James Todd Smith) was born on January 14, 1968, and raised by his grandparents in Queens, NY.
		LL had achieved a lot of "firsts" and accolades by the time he entered his 20's, including a performance on Saturday Night Live, a profile in Ebony magazine (both firsts for a fl rapper), and he was asked by Nancy Reagan to headline an anti-drug concert for her infamous "Just Say No" campaign.
		LL told MTV "...the reason I wanted to be so truthful and so frank in my book is because I feel you can't really help the young people and help the kids, unless you show them where you made mistakes and then corrected them," LL said.

	LL Cool J
		LL Cool J (given name: James T. Smith) was probably the best looking of the early/mid 80s rappers, and he's exploited his sex appeal to the max (his stage name stands for "Ladies Love Cool James").
		But LL indulges his macho side to a distressing degree with the mindless 2 Live Crew-style "Big Ole Butt," "I'm That Type Of Guy," "1-900 LL Cool J" and so on, plus a silly social conscious message tune ("Change Your Ways"), and a sappy attempt to integrate sung vocals ("Two Different Worlds" featuring Cyndé Monet).
		LL just talks about how great he is, without any of the witty wordplay, emotional honesty or charisma that really did make his early records great.

	LL Cool J: Todd Smith - PopMatters Music Review
		LL Cool J is a machine, a corporation; recently, LL Cool J is, depending on just who you’re talking to, either an easy three-word punchline or “the next best thing to Usher, gurrrrrl.” And LL Cool J has become a cultural institution.
		When LL Cool J’s shoes become too big for even LL Cool J to fill, he strips down, in concept at least, he pulls out his birthname and reminds everyone that he’s human.
		LL’s career has a life cycle all its own, evolving and changing shape as it goes, and you get the sense that there really isn’t anything that could stop him.
