My personal entry point to LL Cool J - and I think best song on his best album.

I have the unpopular opinion that aside from a couple specific songs I've been lukewarm to every LL Cool J album later than Radio (which was such a banger), but this is so eyebrow-raisingly off the path of what I tend to expect from LL Cool J that I had to post here.

30 secs later it felt like that thought had personally offended him. Track 1 no less.

JODIE: The reason it has been difficult for the United States to understand the Palestinian side is not only because of the media but because colonialism is in our history. We can’t face the fact that colonialism is wrong and that it steps on a lot of toes and hurts a lot of people.

“I have spent my career inviting diversity of opinion. I think it’s important to have people at the table when some of the most important decisions are being made that have different views, different experiences,” Harris said. “And I think it would be to the benefit of the American public to have a member of my Cabinet who was a Republican.”

If someone asked me what the theme song was for 2020 as I watched videos day after day of cops abusing protesters and bystanders, this is undoubtedly the only choice. Came up on shuffle last night and immediately took me back.
