LL Cool J: 6 Minutes Of Pleasure (Hey Girl Remix)
from 6 Minutes of Pleasure 12" (Columbia 1991)


A simple case of an unintentional lyrical faux pas or an ameliorating self-confession from the Greatest of All Time? Either way the title of this cut has always bugged me. The title suggests that it would seem to be an ode to the quickie, but lyrically the song and title are so disconnected that one is obviously not referring to the other. Rather it seems to be in reference to the Kangoled one's sexual prowess, which if true, is not something you want to exactly be bragging about. Regardless of the titles meaning this song is a definite summer banger.

"Remixed by the one and only marley marl[sic]" (and that's a direct quote from the back cover) the song lasts a little under five minutes, which eliminates another possible meaning, but the songs length is filled up with a more subtle bass line than the original and removes the cheesy horn sample in favor of the famous Funky President guitar sample and drums. This is from the classic Todd James rapper/dancer era when he would bust a move like a poor man's Big Daddy Kane, and this song lends itself well to that type of stuff so feel free to cut up the rug while bumping this, trust me no one will be looking.
