==Early life==
L.L. Cool J was born James Todd Smith on January 14, 1968, in Bay Shore, New York, to James and Ondrea Smith. In March 1984, when NYU student Rick Rubin and promoter-manager Russell Simmons founded the then-independent Def Jam label, 16 year–old Hollis, Queens native James Todd Smith was creating demo tapes in his grandparents' home.〔 His grandfather, a jazz saxophonist, purchased him $2,000 worth of equipment, including two turntables, an audio mixer and an amplifier.〔Holden, Stephen. ("From Rock To Rap" ), ''New York Times'', April 26, 1987. Retrieved on 2008-11-16.〕 Smith later discussed his childhood background and rapping, stating that "By the time I got that equipment, I was already a rapper. In this neighborhood, the kids grow up in rap. It's like speaking Spanish if you grow up in an all-Spanish house. I got into it when I was about 9, and since then all I wanted was to make a record and hear it on the radio."〔 By using the mixer he had received from his grandfather, Smith produced and mixed his own demos and sent them to various record companies throughout New York City, including Simmons' and Rubin's own Def Jam Recordings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=VideoETA....LL Cool J bio )
Under his new stage name, LL Cool J (an abbreviation for Ladies Love Cool James),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Acronyms and abbreviations by the Free Online Dictionary )〕 Smith was signed by Def Jam, which led to the release of his first official record, the 12-inch single "I Need a Beat" (1984).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MTV.com - LL Cool J Bio )〕 The single was a hard-hitting, streetwise b-boy song with spare beats and ballistic rhymes.〔 Smith later discussed his search for a label, stating "I sent my demo to many different companies, but it was Def Jam where I found my home." That same year, Smith made his professional debut concert performance at Manhattan Center High School. In a later interview, LL Cool J recalled the experience, stating "They pushed the lunch room tables together and me and my DJ, Cut Creator, started playing. ... As soon as it was over there were girls screaming and asking for autographs. Right then and there I said 'This is what I want to do'."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=LL Cool J bio: Edison Force ActorTribute.ca.... )〕 LL's debut single sold over 100,000 copies and helped establish both Def Jam as a label and Smith as a rapper. The commercial success of "I Need a Beat", along with the Beastie Boys's single "Rock Hard" (1984), helped lead Def Jam to a distribution deal with Columbia Records the following year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Address Island / Def Jam Records ...
