Diss track to kool Mo Dee . They went back and forth with battle rap for a long time. LL is a rapper favorite rapper! ❤

Krumbsnatcha ...Closer to god.........salute from switzerland

Let me tell you something about this battle: this song was an answer to ‘How you like me now’ by Kool Moe Dee. He represented well on here but he actually got killed by Moe Dee’s response to this song, it’s called ‘Let’s Go’. After ‘Let’s Go’ dropped it was decided that Kool Moe Dee won the battle… But LL came back a whole year later with: To the break of dawn.

LL Cool J is probably the most versatile rapper to ever live. He has many styles like story telling, battle raps, songs for the ladies, hardcore, lyrical. LL was that dude back in the day.

Str8 legend and this joint still slaps hard! Ever since he was on Krush Groove he was a damn problem.

my favorite LL track

Listen to Kool Moe Dee Responding with Death Blow. Long time Subscriber from the BAY AREA. Miss watching you QUEEN. GLAD YOU ARE STILL STANDING 🎉

Context: Kool Moe Dee was from the pioneer era of rappers and LL was part of a new generation of emcees (along with groups like Run DMC) that were on the rise and enjoying commercial success (translation-they were getting more fame and more money than their predecessors). LL’s style was clearly influenced by Kool Moe Dee who, as part of the group the Treacherous Three, was known for using a large vocabulary and creating complex rhymes patterns. KMD was a little bitter that these new rappers were getting over using what he felt was HIS style…especially considering, he was still in the game. To his credit, he updated his sound musically and dropped a solo album that simultaneously took a shot at the new jacks (specifically LL) and got him the recognition he thought he deserved.

ll cool is the one greatest to ever rock the mic true legend of hip hop and music this one of my favorites.

LL was great on this. This beat thumps.

Kool Mo Dee had a song called "How you like me now" talking slick, then LL Cool J released this going at him.

The funny thing is, LL started Love Rap. There weren't any HiPHop ballads before I Need Love. He pioneered and did it all. That's how he kept going decade after decade. He made a fortune with these battles. Kool Mo......Cannibis was another one.

KOOL MOE DEE"LETS GO"

I don't know how to recommend a tract but "Artifacts - Wrong Side Of Da Tracks" RIP Tame. This is not just for her this is for all of you....Enjoy.

This was L.L before the love songs. He had some slow jams, but this is what he started out doing.

I need more reactions... Heltah Skeltah, O.g.g. , Bootcamp Click, Sean Price, Ludacris...please

This was badass. I had to check it out to find out what it was all about. The only Jack The Ripper I am aware of is the historical serial killer in England in 1888 . I knew that couldn’t be what the song was about 😂!

You got to do "Let's Go" now!

YES, AN LL DISS TO KOOL MOE DEE

Although Kool Moe D thought LL Cool J stole his style, LL Cool J persona was more influenced by T La Rock. LL Cool J styles were similar T La Rock's voice inflection and the way he dressed. When I first listened to LL Cool J, I thought he was T La Rock. LL Cool J later carved out his own niche. Kool Moe D was more of a lyricist, but his beats were staled. Just with lyrics alone, Kool Moe D outclassed him. LL Cool J had better beats and his delivery was with more passion.

LL - Jack the Ripper vs Kool Moe - Let's Go Legendary The beef was also about Kool Moe felt LL disrespected other great rappers. Those being Kool Moe who made rap beef to what it is today. Grandmaster Melly Mel. Grandmaster Caz. (I'm missing a person or two).

Goodie Mob " Beautiful black skin" classic for real. Check it out if haven't yet.

That's a classic now can you play Philly old school rapper name Cool C the song is called enemy territory

You have to do “Mama Said Knock You Out “

Ur 100% correct L was just that dude

🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤 #ClassicHipHop

I only know L Kool j A hard rapper ! They made him that love title because of one song he made ( I need Love ) I never thought that !

3 he dropped the bomb on Kool Moe Dee by the way he's back🎉

He diss LL but Kool Moe Dee shut all that down when he came with “Let’s Go “

You should've listened to the original 12" version of Jack The Ripper which was released on Def Jam Recordings 10th Anniversary box set in 1994

Wooooow!!!!! This song got be like over 35 years old. Think about it….Reagan was the President then. We getting old, BUT to me the lyricism from like 1985 to 2000 is unmatched.

Geto boys, my mind is playing tricks on me

#LLCoolJ ⚡️🎵🎤👑 Next rhymes to vibe to after the Kool Moe Dee era, LL Cool J vs Canibus on #4321. Canibus' #2ndRoundKO. LL Cool J's #TheRipperStrikesBack. Wyclef's #WhatsClef, then LL Cool J's #RastaImpasta and #BackWhereIBelong. Then Canibus' #RipTheJacker. Have fun. 😄

Dope reaction. Thanks for covering this track. I know you know about the Canibus and LL beef, Canibus did a response to this song after the original 4 track back and forth (4,3,2,1 then Zoom, then 2nd Round KO, then The Ripper Strikes Back)... After the dust settled they both sent little shots here and there but Canibus was live in Amsterdam and was doing a show, he unveiled for the first time a freestyle called "Rip The Jacker Live"... Its supposed to be a direct response to this song you reacted to, its a dope song and pretty scathing dis. The crowd goes nuts every line so much that Canibus has to yell at them throughout to calm down so he can get through it. Im not asking you to react to it but that would be cool too. I think you should definitely listen to it at least. *Canibus - Rip The Jacker Live Freestyle*

Fight for your right (Beastie Boys)

Speaking of Kool MO Dee.....do wild wild west

Kausion- What you gonna do? Ft. Ice cube

I can hear that James Brown

Stealing your Style was a big thing back then. Now everyone does it.

Beef might go back to before they became famous. Kool Mo Dee had a hook about people seeing he will never rock rhymes never rock records how you like me now.

When LL went in on Moe Dee but Moe Dee won when he made let's go remember All the L🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

LL was ILL

Could u react to Super Hoe by Boogie Down Productions?

Kool Moe Dee did not survive that song, even though he came afterwards with several response records, but nothing hit like this. The beat alone was a haymaker and Kool Moe didn't have beats like this.
