Classic Material: LL Cool J Classic Interview

JAN29



Still on my old school shit, this one is jacked 1nce again from The Meaning Of Dope. LL talks about how Def Jam was started (he briefly mentions "this guy" T La Rock's record as being the first assotiated with Def Jam), how "I Need A Beat" became the first official 12inch on Def Jam, talks about his show stealing appearance in Krush Groove, how he came up with the idea for "I'm That Type Of Guy", and busts an acapella "Eat Em Up L" verse. This was around the Mama Said Knock You Out era when LL's hats were by far at their biggest.

And just because it's SUPER dope, here is LL's scene from Krush Groove where he raps for Rick Ruben and Run DMC.
