LL Cool J To Quit Rapping?

[Rahim]

According to MSNBC.com, veteran rapper LL Cool J was furious after his new album was outsold by Jessica Simpson’s first-ever country album.

Nielsen Soundscan reported Jessica Simpson’s Do You Know, hitting the charts at No. 4 while selling 65,000 units.

LL Cool J’s Exit 13 landed at No.9 with 44,000 sales.

“He was so angry at one point that he was beaten by Jess that he actually threatened to quit rap,” said an unnamed source close to the Def Jam record label.

It was later confirmed that LL was just “having a spur of the moment” and that “he [LL Cool J] has no plans to quit” and is focusing on celebrating his “sixth consecutive top 10 album in his nearly 25 amazing years in music.”

This past Wednesday, Cool J was rather cheerful at the Hennessey Artistry Kick-off Event in L.A., as he spent his night partying with girls onstage and throwing money into the crowd.

wow...people should have went and bought his album, i would be upset too. Exit 13 is a pretty good album, not as good as G.O.A.T. but it has some nice cuts on there.

he should know that the internet hurts his sales, the album would have never leaked. he would have sold at least 70,000 copies. but your never gonna stop people from leaking your shit thou.
