Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf - LL Cool J
LL Cool J has had a remarkable career. Since 1984, he has had multiple platinum albums and number one hits, he put Def Jam on the map, he launched the FUBU clothing line, acted in numerous movies, has his own record label, and he's still going strong!

In 1991, Disney put together a series of music videos in a direct-to-video/soundtrack album package called SIMPLY MAD ABOUT THE MOUSE: A MUSICAL CELEBRATION OF IMAGINATION. The videos are all acts who were top acts of the time and LL's contribution to the album is one of the more interesting renditions.

Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf from the 1933 film Three Little Pigs was Disney's first hit single. People loved the Frank Churchill song because of the allegory to the Great Depression, and later to Nazi Germany. But above all, people loved the song because it was a great song. It has lasted generations and it is still loved all over the world. LL adds rap verses that tell the tale of the Three Little Pigs and place you right in the action. This isn't so much a cover song but a rap song that samples the Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf chorus.
