LL Cool J teases 2023 release of new album
Written by ABC AUDIO ALL RIGHTS RESERVED on January 16, 2023
LL Cool J‘s claim to mainstream fame was through rap, to which he’s ready to make a return. Taking to social media Saturday, the actor/host announced that he’s working on a new album.
“I’m competing with myself on this new album. Wait til you hear this MF,” he tweeted. “This year B. It’s coming.”
LL has teased an upcoming album a few times over the last few years. In 2014, he revealed that he’d tapped Eminem, T.I., J. Cole and Raekwon for his unreleased G.O.A.T. 2 project. He linked with Dr. Dre shortly before announcing an untitled project in 2016, and in 2020, he told ET that he and Q-Tipwere executive producing his new album.
If LL’s recent tweet is true, the album will be his first full-length project in 10 years, following 2013’s Authentic.
