LL Cool J definitely has a passion for tattoo artwork, and has a handful of tattoo designs.
On his right arm is a microphone with a kings crown on top, and the name "Mr. Smith" across the handle, the cord of the microphone is quite long and wraps down and around his entire right arm.
On his upper left arm he has a large tattoo which says "Respect" written in a tribal style lettering.
He has seven spiritual symbols from Ghana and Cote d'Ivoire cultures, which run down his left leg. The first symbol stands for "presence of God and protection".
And finally, he has a small script tattoo on his lower stomach, a possible tribute of sorts, however its not clear.
