"Pink Cookies in a Plastic Bag Getting Crushed by Buildings" is a song by American rapper LL Cool J, released alongside "Back Seat (of My Jeep)" as the joint second single from his fifth studio album 14 Shots to the Dome (1993). The original version was produced by Marley Marl, though the more popular remix was produced by Easy Mo Bee. The song reached No. 2 on the Hot Rap Songs and No. 24 on the Hot R&B Songs charts. ^[1] The song's music video was directed by Brett Ratner.

Title

In a 2017 interview, 24 years after the song's release, LL Cool J claimed that its seemingly nonsensical title came to him at random during a phone call while under the influence of marijuana. ^[2] However, in 2019, he tweeted that the title is actually a reference to both an anal sex-induced prolapse and the act of a man tossing a woman onto a bed during an orgasm: "Pink Cookies in a plastic bag is when you literally turn the 🍑 inside out. (looks like pink cookies lol) Getting 'crushed by buildings' is standing/carrying your (sex) partner then tossing them on the bed at the HEIGHT of the 'O'." ^{[3] [4]}
