LL Cool JFresh from touting his new low-carb fitness book, LL Cool J has just become an official Hollywood bigwig with a seven-figure production deal with CBS.

The deal’s structure, unusual in Tinseltown, gives the veteran rapper carte blanche to work under any production studio he wants. The deal also stipulates that Uncle L, along with Alchemy Entertainment’s Jason Barrett, will serve as producer on any project the hard-bodied Queens native works on.

The deal comes a a result of a fierce bidding war between at least two networks, according to subscription-based Variety.com.

Interest in LL, whose real name is Todd Smith, peaked when he turned in a critically-acclaimed guest-starring role last season on “House.” Since then, offers have been flooding LL, who put them on hold to promote his latest album Todd Smith.

The 38 year-old rapper is said to be focusing on dramas. He was last seen on TV in the long running sitcom “In The House,” which ended in 1999.
