After a thirty year hiatus, LL COOL J is headlining his first arena tour. Dubbed The F.O.R.C.E Live (Frequencies of Real Creative Energy), the multi-state, Live Nation-backed, celebration promises a rotating cast of some of Hip-Hop's most historic figures/groups.
Backed by The Roots, DJ Z-Trip, and DJ Jazzy Jeff, expected participants include Salt-N-Pepa, Queen Latifah, Rakim, Common, Method Man & Redman, Big Boi, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Ice T, Juvenile, Doug E. Fresh, Slick Rick, De La Soul, Goodie Mob, Jadakiss, Rick Ross, and more. Of course, this leads us to believe that the tour will have the presentation and energy of the Hip-Hop tribute at the Grammys.
