In the realm of hip-hop, few figures hold as much weight as LL COOL J. Over a span of more than three decades, LL has solidified his position as an authentic legend in the industry. Recently, I had the honor of attending LL Cool J’s Los Angeles listening party for his latest album, “THE F.O.R.C.E.” which is the perfect acronym for (Frequencies of Real Creative Energy.)

Produced by Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest, this is LL’s first release in over ten years. The album drops on 9/6 and it features 14 tracks along with an impressive lineup of artists, including Eminem, Rick Ross, Nas, Snoop Dogg, Fat Joe, Busta Rhymes, Saweetie, J-S.A.N.D., Don Pablito, Mad Squablz, and Sona Jobarteh.
