For your playlist: Some classic hip-hop summer songs

[jwplayer mediaid=”632432″]
“Going Back to Cali” by LL Cool J (1988)

LL was still young and brash and New York rappers were still fairly East Coast-focused when this bass-heavy classic was released from the Less Than Zero soundtrack. For years, this was the go-go song for anyone who had a boomin’ system and wanted to do a little summertime cruising.
