WAL Cool J  (We All Love Cool J) - LL Cool J tried to pull a fast one on us yesterday (March 14). The rapper took to his Twitter to announce his retirement. Needless to say, it came as a surprise. But the biggest surprise came when just hours later LL came out of the short-lived retirement. Now that LL Cool J is off recording an album, let's remember all the wonderful video moments this hip hop veteran has given us. —Jon Reyes(Photo: Def Jam Recordings)
