LL Cool J - Doin' It

So this is like my forth post on the Ladies Love. But this LL bias can be easily justified by the sheer number of slack classics he's knocked out over the years. The original is by far the finest version you'll hear, though a notable mention must be made of a remix by Erick Sermon. The original version was based around a Grace Jones sample, and was funnily considered to be anti-semitic by some radio sations in the US, due to a misunderstanding of the line 'chewin' it' as 'Jewin' it'... this lead to the lyric being blanked out in some cases.


The track is referred to by LL on the album Phenomenom (one of my favourite Cool J albums) in Nobody Can Freak You which featured Keith Sweat. Good quality filth.
