Todd "ll Cool J" Smith Signs With "g-unit" by sapphirre(f): 3:44pm On Nov 29, 2006
The self professed ladies man, who has led Def Jam to a fortune since his debut, has been hinting for months that he wants to leave the label and he's blaming Jigga.

'How am I gonna re-sign with competition? I'm not a idiot,' he said about President Carter in reports. 'I can't depend on that man to promote my record while he's somewhere writing rhymes, I'm LL Cool J. I ain't doing that, B.'

But at the end of the day it all comes down to the loot.

'I would rock with Def Jam if they wrote a big enough check,' said LL with a laugh, in published reports. 'Me and Jay would be on that yacht like, 'Hov! Hov! Write that check, homie'.

As previously reported his next album titled Todd Smith, Part 2: Back to Cool, which is executive produced by 50 Cent, may have some of his R&B loving listeners shocked.

'I'm absolutely going to pulverize these cats, It's going to be hysterical. It's like a 'Mama Said Knock You Out' type of record or 'Mr. Smith' type of record. It's a very good record. My last three records were R&B and more of me getting kinda into the emotional side of what I do. This is the aggressive side. Just ego. I'm getting into the party free, regardless. We unlocking the back door and sneaking 50 people in. This album, I'mma do a little street-corner joint. Smack them around, turn 'em upside down and shake the change out their pockets.'

And why did he team up with Fiddy?

'We're from Queens. We're seven years apart in age. He knows what I'm into. We come from the same experience, so the music reflects that. And let's face it, 50 reminds me of a place I was in awhile ago. I have been running around on tours. I have been in the suites, and I haven't been on the blocks smelling like Guinness lately. It's fun to work with somebody who rekindles those flames and makes me hungry again. It's definitely working.'
