One of the most suave rappers to date, James Todd Smith, better known as LL Cool J has been on fire not only in the music biz but also in Hollywood as well (see NCIS: LA). Born in Queens, he started rapping at age 9 and bagged a recording deal at 17. Countless of hits later including “Mama Said Knock You Out” and “Hush”, his other ventures include his own clothing line called Todd Smith, book deals (on his bio and work out regimen) and multiple business enterprises. Known for his chiselled bod, it’s no wonder why Ladies Love Cool J.
