The hip-hop world is buzzing as LL COOL J, the GRAMMY® Award-winning icon and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, released his sultry new single “Proclivities” featuring chart-topping rapper Saweetie. This latest track, filled with seductive energy and magnetic appeal, is a standout preview from his highly anticipated album, The FORCE, set to drop on September 6th.
In “Proclivities,” LL COOL J delivers his signature smooth flow and lyrical mastery, while Saweetie adds a fresh, confident vibe with her silky verses. The track is a powerful blend of both artists’ distinct styles, creating a dynamic collaboration that’s as sexy as it is fun. The provocative lyrics and infectious beat are sure to make “Proclivities” a hit on the charts.
Lyrics Sample:
“Damn baby I don’t know if you dance or not
I’d love to see you on the pole
I don’t know if you conservative or if you a freak
But I’d love to see you lose control”
From the first beat drop, “Proclivities” takes listeners on a thrilling ride, with LL COOL J and Saweetie exchanging verses that ooze confidence and allure. The accompanying music video amplifies the track’s seductive energy, reminiscent of LL’s classic “Doin’ It,” set against a captivating after-dark backdrop.
“‘Proclivities’ is a fun song about the inner secrets we all have,” LL COOL J shared. “It’s one of my favorites on the album. Keep it on repeat, baby!”
“Proclivities” is the third single from The FORCE, following the release of “Saturday Night Special” and “Passion.” The FORCE marks LL COOL J’s first new album in over a decade, and it promises to be a powerful return to the music scene. Produced entirely by Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest, the album is a blend of modern soundscapes with LL’s legendary lyrical finesse. LL describes the process as “learning how to rap again,” likening it to a director returning to film school after a series of blockbusters.
Last week, The Source was invited to an exclusive preview of The FORCE at Lavan Midtown in New York City, where LL COOL J sat down with Elliot Wilson to discuss each track. The event, complete with light bites and specialty cocktails by COORS Light, showcased LL’s renewed energy and passion for his craft. Attendees left convinced that LL is poised to reaffirm his status as one of the greatest of all time.
