5K EVERY DAY – Day #322

(Opening clip — “Rock the Bells” intro)

On this date back in 1985, LL Cool J dropped his debut album, Radio — the very first album ever released on Def Jam Records.

(Clip — “I Can’t Live Without My Radio”)

LL was just 17.
No hype. No big marketing machine.
Just raw talent and relentless work.

(Clip — “Rock the Bells” hook)

That album went Platinum and made LL the first solo rapper to stand toe-to-toe with Run-D.M.C. He showed up before anyone else believed in him — and kept showing up after they did.

You make noise by showing up day after day.
Day 322 — done.
