LL Cool J has dropped "The Hustler," a Jerry Wonda produced cut featuring a guest spot from Mavado. The vid, directed by Benny Boom, was shot in LL's hometown of Queens and is the lead single from his upcoming album, G.O.A.T. 2.
In the visual, Cool J and Mav hang with the crew in the hood and knock around on motorbikes and ATVs.
"This album is hard. 85% of is just knockin' beats. And current. We're not trying to put our '95 high school rings on," J told Fuse of the new LP.
He adds that the rugged new album is "not for the ladies."
G.O.A.T. 2 will also feature spots from Uncle Murda, Raekwon, Lucky Don, and Murda Mook. The LP, which is the follow up to J's 2000 album G.O.A.T., currently has no release date.
