LL Cool J: I Am “The Most Important Rapper That Ever Existed”

LL Cool J is undeniably one of the pioneering forces of Hip-Hop.

A fact that makes the title of the veteran’s new album, ‘The Force,’ all sorts of apt.

Hot on the promotional trail for the LP,  Def Jam‘s first-ever signee stopped by Apple Music.

Chopping it up with Mehdi Maïzi, the Rap titan didn’t shy away from leaning into his own legendary status.

Full story below…

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee waxed candid about his stance on his place in the culture. He quipped:

“I’m still trying to create. I’m very much still in it. I say this humbly, but one day people are gonna wake up and realize that LL COOL J is the most important rapper that ever existed.”

Continuing, the veteran added:

“I truly believe one day people are gonna say that. They’ll say when it comes to the jewelry, that this is the guy that introduced all the diamonds, ice, and champagne. When it comes to the love songs, this is the guy who introduced all the love sh*t.”
