James Todd Smith III was born on January 14, 1968 on Long Island, and grew up in Queens. He had a violent upbringing, and after his parents had separated, his father shot his mother in an attack when Smith was still a child. She survived the attack, only to date a man who used to beat Smith repeatedly. Despite all this trouble, Smith persevered, and has released 12 albums, all of which have gone either platinum or gold. LL Cool J not only wows his crowds with his music, but he tells his often-tragic life story right there on stage.
