3.0 out of 5 stars LL can do much better, October 28, 2004

This review is from: Headsprung 1 (Audio CD)

"Headsprung" the first single off LL Cool J's new album, "The DEFinition", is strictly a club banger. I believe that's the only purpose this song has - the beat is hard and danceable, and catchy hook makes for an automatic hit single.

LL used to be "hard as hell", but now I'm not so sure. He spits a total of about 10 lines in the entire song, with no flow at all, and the rest of the song is hook-driven. Simply, if he rapped more in this one, this would be a great song, but sadly, he doesn't.

Headsprung alone gets 2 stars, but the single gets an extra star for "Feel the Beat", a song definately worth checking out, because it's reminiscent of LL Cool J's old rap style.

First I aksed myself "why did he go with Timbaland?" Why do a lot of people stick with has-beens? Well it worked out for him. After the BS album "10," I (and other after each album from him) always wonder how he will come on the next one and if he could do it again. When I saw young teenage boys going sick over the song, I knew he had a hit. He was dominating 106 and Park for a while.

It took me a while to get into this one as the first joint that I heard from him was "Feel the Beat." I was hoping that this would be his first single because that song is the single hottest on the album. That song made me get the album. As usual, L.L. releases what he thinks will be his commercial joint instead of releasing his hottest joint. Remember when "back Seat" was a B-side until it blew up? At least he put "Feel the Beat" in the video. I wish he would have just made two videos. I give the song 4 because of the L.L. memories and it grew on me. "Feel the Beat" would get 5...

Feel the Beat is cool,but Headsprung is wack to me. LL COOL J has been on Crusie Control for so long it ain't even funny.while He will go down as One of the Greatest Rappers Ever,He also will be remembered for just going through the Motions for many a year as well.this cut is the kind He could do on a Off day.but LL has been putting it down for 20 years&to say that in the Rap Hip-Hop world is a Major statement.but I also miss the days when this Cat was Musically Hungry.
