LL Cool J is on the cover of the March issue of Essence! What a pleasant surprise. Following last week’s Next Chapter interview with Oprah, it was a treat to see the Grammy-winning, trail-blazing rapper and actor on the cover. Whether you love him for his classic hits, or starring as multi-lingual, secret agent Sam Hanna on NCIS Los Angeles, it’s true: ladies really do love, Cool J. Known for his talent, good looks, and biceps (even Oprah took notice), the talented actor opens up to Essence about his life as a family man and his love and support for his wife.
“I think, at the end of the day, as a man, you should support the woman you’re with. If she’s got a dream, you need to help make that a reality. I’m doing the best I can to do that.” His wife, Simone, describes their marriage in one word—”awesome.”
LL Cool J Quotes from Oprah’s Next Chapter:
“Dreams don’t have deadlines.”
When Oprah asked if he were to write I Need Love now, would the lyrics be different?
LL Cool J: “No. That was true forever”
What’s next for LL? Fans can watch as he hosts the Grammy Awards on February 10 and expect new music as he plans to release his new album, Authentic Hip Hop.
Below, check out LL’s video for his new song, Take It. Kudos to Essence Magazine on a great cover choice! Thank you.
