Hip-hop legend LL Cool J returns with The FORCE, his first new album in more than a decade. Produced in it's entirety by A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip, The FORCE (an acronym for Frequencies Of Real Creative Energy) represents years of intense work. The result is an album that sounds thoroughly modern - full of razor-sharp writing and nimble, elastic vocals - but rooted in a rich tradition.
