Introduction to LL Cool J
LL Cool J is now starring in NCIS Los Angeles, from the fall of 2009 onwards. He stars with Chris O'Donnell, on the NCIS Cast. This show is in competition for viewers with the original NCIS show starring Mark Harmon as Leroy Gibbs shot in Los Angeles, California and which has stayed wildly popular over many seasons. It will be interesting to see which show becomes the most popular over time.LL Cool J has been a Grammy Award-winning East Coast rapper, hip-hop artist, and occasional actor until now, who has released 13 albums on Def Jam Recordings (including his 1996 greatest hits compilation). He has recorded songs ranging from romantic ballads such as "I Need Love" and "Hey Lover" to pioneering hip-hop songs like "I Can't Live Without My Radio," "I'm Bad" and "Mama Said Knock You Out."
