The high-class rhymes of these veteran emcees are perfectly blended with <strong>Q-Tip&#8217;s<\/strong> remarkable instrumental. LL proclaimed he approached the song with a &#8220;student&#8217;s mindstate,\u201c despite his longevity in the game, and \u201cSaturday Night Special\u201c shows he definitely passed his tests.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"198869\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/ll-cool-j-x-fat-joe-x-rick-ross-saturday-night-special-prod-by-q-tip\/ll-cool-j-x-rick-ross-x-fat-joe-saturday-night-special-thumbnail-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ll-Cool-J-x-Rick-Ross-x-Fat-Joe-Saturday-Night-Special-Thumbnail-2.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1280,720\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ll Cool J x Rick Ross x Fat Joe &amp;#8211; Saturday Night Special Thumbnail 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ll-Cool-J-x-Rick-Ross-x-Fat-Joe-Saturday-Night-Special-Thumbnail-2.jpg?fit=640%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-198869\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ll-Cool-J-x-Rick-Ross-x-Fat-Joe-Saturday-Night-Special-Thumbnail-2.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\"   srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ll-Cool-J-x-Rick-Ross-x-Fat-Joe-Saturday-Night-Special-Thumbnail-2.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ll-Cool-J-x-Rick-Ross-x-Fat-Joe-Saturday-Night-Special-Thumbnail-2.jpg?resize=540%2C304&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ll-Cool-J-x-Rick-Ross-x-Fat-Joe-Saturday-Night-Special-Thumbnail-2.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ll-Cool-J-x-Rick-Ross-x-Fat-Joe-Saturday-Night-Special-Thumbnail-2.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of Hip-Hop&#8217;s O.G.&#8217;s, and one the first artists to achieve major commercial success in&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-198866","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-videos"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pG6fW-PJw","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198866","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198866"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198866\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198866"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=198866"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=198866"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
