Walking With a Panther is the third album by high-selling hip-hop artist LL Cool J. Produced in 1989, the album was a commercial success, with several charting singles ("Going Back to Cali," "I'm That Type of Guy", "Jingling Baby," "Big Ole Butt"), however, the album was often criticized by the hip-hop community as being too commercial, materialistic, and "soft" for focusing too much on love ballads albeit with some highly danceable songs. Ironically, critics today consider this album unique, in that LL started a pioneering trend (which would be adapted by other hip-hop artists in later years) by displaying materialistic themes on the album cover: the massive gold chain, or "truck jewelry" as it was then called, on the panther, and beautiful and sexily clad women surrounding LL, who's holding a cell phone in one hand and a bottle of champagne on the other. So many hip-hop albums today portray some or all of these themes on their covers, thanks to LL.
