LL COOL J’s newest song, inspired by his role on NCIS: LOS ANGELES and written and performed by him, is now available on iTunes – and can be sampled on cbs.com and boomdizzle.com. The rap song, ‘NCIS: No Crew Is Superior,’ will also underscore CBS Marketing’s upcoming on-air campaign and extensive radio and online outreach in support of NCIS: LOS ANGELES, which premieres Tuesday, Sept. 22 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
‘NCIS: No Crew Is Superior’ is the first new recording from songwriter, performer and actor LL COOL J since the 2008 release of his critically acclaimed album Exit 13. The song was inspired by his role as Special Agent Sam Hanna, a former U.S. Navy Seal, on NCIS: LOS ANGELES.
NCIS: LOS ANGELES is about the high-stakes world of the Office of Special Projects (OSP), a division of NCIS that is charged with apprehending dangerous and elusive criminals that pose a threat to the nation’s security. ‘NCIS: No Crew Is Superior’ features LL COOL J rapping about the life and death nature – as well as the virtues – of that line of work.
‘This song is the musical interpretation of what I felt after meeting with NCIS agents, experienced Marines and Navy Seals,’ said LL COOL J. ‘It represents the collective energy in the room. I was so inspired I wrote the song on set.’
For ‘NCIS: No Crew Is Superior,’ LL COOL J reached out to sought-after music producer, C. ‘Tricky’ Stewart who recently produced Beyoncé’s ‘Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)’ and Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella.’
‘It was great to reunite with LL COOL J. His name is stamped on some of the best records that have ever been made in hip hop,’ said producer C. ‘Tricky’ Stewart. ‘Driven by his passion for the project and the strength of the lyrics, he makes my job to create a new track complicated and easy at the same time, because LL always delivers something new and innovative to the genre.’
The song’s music video, to be released this week, includes behind-the-scenes interaction between performer LL COOL J and C. ‘Tricky’ Stewart during the recording session and clips from NCIS: LOS ANGELES.
‘NCIS: No Crew Is Superior’ is available for purchase on iTunes through worldwide partnership with LL COOL J and Boomdizzle. Boomdizzle.com, founded by LL COOL J, and <a href=
