LL Cool J and Eminem have officially released their highly anticipated track, "Murdergram Deux," following a previous leak of an unfinished version online. The new single, featured on LL Cool J’s upcoming album *The Force*, showcases the lyrical prowess of both rap legends over a frenetic beat produced by Q-Tip and Eminem himself.

"Murdergram Deux" has been making waves for its rapid-paced verses and intricate wordplay. LL Cool J delivers a powerful performance with lines like, “Do you remember first time you heard the legend in leather? / The career ender with the road-killer stuck to his fender / I’m on another bender, drunk off the power that make a coward surrender as I devour contenders.” Eminem matches the intensity with his signature rapid-fire delivery, rapping, “I can’t understand a single word you’re saying / I think you have syrup brain, ’bout to finish you like polyurethane / All that molly probably sure to drain your spinal fluid from your vertebrae.

The track's official release follows a less polished version that leaked earlier, which LL Cool J addressed publicly. In an interview with Raymond T, LL Cool J clarified, “It’s not A.I. but it’s not official. It’s not the right version. People just walk all in the kitchen, touching the rolls before their done, you know how your grandmother slaps your hand when you try to check the pots early. It’s not A.I., it’s a real joint.”
This collaboration between LL Cool J and Eminem is particularly significant as the two have long respected each other's work but had never joined forces before. Eminem reminisced about their first meeting during the making of his music video for “Just Don’t Give a Fuck,” expressing his admiration for LL Cool J’s impact on the genre.

The release of "Murdergram Deux" comes as LL Cool J prepares for his first album in 11 years, *The Force*, set to drop on September 6. The album is poised to be a major event in the hip-hop world, featuring collaborations with other rap icons such as Nas, Snoop Dogg, and Busta Rhymes.
As fans eagerly await the full album, "Murdergram Deux" offers a tantalizing preview of what’s to come, blending the raw energy of Eminem’s production with LL Cool J’s enduring lyrical skill.
