If you haven't guessed it, LL Cool J said his days of recording with Def Jam are numbered. He owes the company one more LP, then it's a wrap. He said Jay-Z's presidency is the main reason he doesn't want to come back.
"How am I gonna re-sign with competition? I'm not a idiot," LL said of his label boss. "I can't depend on that man to promote my record while he's somewhere writing rhymes. ... I'm LL Cool J. I ain't doing that, B."
LL said he hasn't decided what his next home may be, but he joked that he might even come back to Def Jam for the right paper. "I would rock with Def Jam if they wrote a big enough check," he said before breaking out into his trademark hearty laughter. "Me and Jay would be on that yacht like, 'Hov! Hov! Write that check, homie.' "
Uncle L's LP, as you might have heard, is being executive produced by 50 Cent, and LL said it will live up to the hype (see "50 Cent, LL Cool J Team Up To Prove NYC Reigns Supreme On Todd Smith Sequel").
"I'm absolutely going to pulverize these cats," he said, still chuckling. "It's going to be hysterical. It's like a Mama Said Knock You Out type of record or Mr. Smith type of record. It's a very good record. My last three records were R&B and more of me getting kinda into the emotional side of what I do. This is the aggressive side. Just ego. I'm getting into the party free, regardless. We unlocking the back door and sneaking 50 people in. This album, I'mma do a little street-corner joint. Smack them around, turn 'em upside down and shake the change out their pockets."
LL said 50 reminds him of himself. "My man has a great sensibility. He knows what I like," he said. "We're from Queens. We're seven years apart in age. He knows what I'm into. We come from the same experience, so the music reflects that. And let's face it, 50 reminds me of a place I was in awhile ago. I have been running around on tours. I have been in the suites, and I haven't been on the blocks smelling like Guinness lately. It's fun to work with somebody who rekindles those flames and makes me hungry again. It's definitely working."
LL said he'll be putting out a mixtape soon. Expect DJ Whoo Kid to have a hand in it as well. ...

G-Unit Beg For Mercy.
I think this album will be equal to the G.O.A.T. You got to have a certain taste to like LL. I don't understand all the hate for Uncle L.
