Over the years, hip-hop's reigning king has accomplished much more than the average rapper. With his own book, television sitcom, and, oh, yeah, a stack of platinum-selling albums, LL Cool J is proof-positive that hip-hop can translate to the mainstream with it's integrity intact. PHENOMENON comes 12 years after his debut, and LL still represents the essence of true hip-hop. LL's success is probably due to his ability to cross over without selling out, and to his versatile style. The hard-core rapper that "rocked the bells" in 1986 coexisted with the sensitive smoothie who "needed love" from all the ladies. And in 1997, while LL Cool J makes it "Hot, Hot, Hot" on an incendiary, Puffy-produced track, James Todd Smith tells his story of growing up as an abused child on "Father."
