'Doin It' is the second single from LL Cool J's sixth album, Mr. Smith, and was released on February 20, 1996 for Def Jam Recordings. Based on a sample of Grace Jones' 'My Jamaican Guy', it also featured LeShaun (who previously released a song with the same sample and theme in 1988 titled 'Wild Thang'), production from Rashad 'Ringo' Smith and LL Cool J. In several interviews, both the artist and producer stated that the instrumental was originally meant for the Notorious B.I.G., to be used for a song and single on his Life After Death album, which was posthumously released.[1]
'Doin It' was a success for LL Cool J, making it to #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #7 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop SongsBillboard charts. On the B-side was the previous single, 'Hey Lover'.
The remix featured on the soundtrack to The Nutty Professor samples the Art of Noise's 'Moments in Love.'
The crowd noise played throughout the song, shouting 'Go Brooklyn', is sampled from 'Go Stetsa' by Stetsasonic. Keri Hilson sampled this song in her song 'Do It' featuring Tank for her debut album In a Perfect World.

Music video[edit]
The video was shot in December 1995, and it was directed by Hype Williams.[citation needed] LeShaun did not appear in the music video, as she was pregnant at the time, so different models took her place and lip sync her parts. Leshaun and her group 2 much had a record out back in the 80's with the same sample and same sexual lyrics. It was called 'Wild Thang', the beginning of her song was the hook for LL's Doin it.
