That could definately be shot to Mase.
I think this was in Mase's book, he was at a church in NY when he said that he decided to give up rapping for ministry, LL Cool J was there that church and looked surprised to hear Mase say that.
And another thing, I go to the Potter's House in Dallas (thats TD Jakes church) and LL Cool J has been there like twice. Everybody might not know this, but he's pretty religious - thats one of the reasons he tone the content of his music down. The last he came which was like two week ago, he gave a real touchy testimony.
What it was is that around the time of In The House's last season, LL was finaicially struggling and they were goin to cancel it, and he was having some problems with Def Jam - everything was sort of going downhill for him. But suddenly, they called the cast back to some more episodes for the season and movie deals started rolling in like crazy - there was more to the story, but Im just no remembering it correctly.
But yeah that line has gotta aimed at Mase...
