LL Cool J is hitting the road for his first headlining arena tour in over 30 years!
On Tuesday, the Hip-Hop legend announced the F.O.R.C.E. (Frequencies of Real Creative Energy) Live Tour presented by his Rock The Bells brand in partnership with Live Nation will be kicking off this summer.
Fans may recall he held the first-ever Rock The Bells Festival in New York last year, now for 2023 he will reload the festival but in a tour format and it will feature some of his other legendary peers on the road with him.
The all-star Hip Hop salute will coincide with the 50th Anniversary of Hip Hop and was previously teased during this year’s Grammy Awards when LL and Questlove curated the Hip Hop tribute performance that night.
LL will serve as headliner, with fellow acts DJ Jazzy Jeff, Salt-N-Pepa, Queen Latifah, Rakim, Common, MC Lyte, Method Man, Redman, Big Boi, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Ice-T, Juvenile, Doug E. Fresh, Slick Rick, De La Soul, Goodie Mob, Jadakiss, Rick Ross, and many others.
