  • "Mama Said Knock You Out" was a hit single by LL Cool J from his album of the same name. The song's famous beginning is "Don't call it a comeback / I've been here for years. " Before "Mama Said Knock You Out" was released, many people felt that LL Cool J's career was waning; his grandmother, who still believed in his talent, told him to "knock out" all the critics. The song was produced by Marley Marl with help from Bobby "Bobcat" Ervin and LL himself and won Best Rap Solo Performance at the Grammy Awards of 1992. The song uses samples from James Brown's "Funky Drummer," the Chicago Gangsters' "Gangster Boogie," Sly & The Family Stone's "Trip to Your Heart" and "Sing a Simple Song", and Rock the Bells by LL Cool J. The music video features LL Cool J in a boxing ring, rapping into a microphone similar to the one an announcer would use in a boxing match. Frequently we see shots of him working out and scenes of a boxer being punched out.
