I'm Bad • LL COOL J [1987]

Bonafide 🌟

i got a gold name plate, that says I wish you would🫵💯

“Calling all cars, calling all cars… Be on the lookout for a tall, light-skinned brother with dimples”

And do the wop 🔥

Now imagine processing this experience mentally as a 7 Year Old Kid in Hollywood, Florida I knew exactly what i wanted to do with my Lifetime right after this came out Proud Hip-Hop Junkie

4 verses no catchy chorus just badness. He was bad...

If the Duffers have this playing during the Stranger Things series finale, I may forgive them.

Always cool to see how each rapper moves when rapping. Like this stuff is obviously played up for the video but I do imagine imagine him in the booth moving his hands furiously like that

Classic

I’ll take a muscle bound man and put his face in the sand! …..You wanna hit give me an hour plus a pen and a pad🔥🔥🔥

Hard to believe that the main beat came from a cartoon...

I can't believe how much of this song I still remember.

Classic 🔥

@Tizthalife77 LLs “not like us” moment

This and @prince’s “Sign ‘O’ The Times” were the soundtrack of my 1987 summer. “I’m notorious, I’ll crush you like a jellybean. I’m BAD!!!”

Crazy this is the sample for Bad.

And he still raps the same exact way 🫡lol

Classic

🔥

Better than 99.9% of any current hip hop

This joint still fire 🔥

My all time fav LL joint

Would’ve loved to see how the streets reacted to I’m Bad by LL Cool J. I know that jelly bean bar had people ready to cut up.
