All World 2 is the second greatest hits compilation from hip hop artist LL Cool J released on December 8, 2009, by Def Jam. Like the original All World compilation, it features tracks from his Def Jam debut Radio to his sixth studio album Mr. Smith, but also features tracks from his seventh studio album Phenomenon to his (at the time) most recent album Exit 13. No tracks from his eighth studio album G.O.A.T. appear on the compilation, despite the album being his only number one album to date.

AllMusic

AllMusic's review derided the album for replicating too much material from All World: Greatest Hits while leaving out too much to be a decent entry point for LL Cool J's work, wryly declaring the release "an acceptable starting point if you don't feel the need to own classics like 'I Need a Beat,' 'I'm Bad,' 'Going Back to Cali,' 'The Boomin' System,' and 'Mama Said Knock You Out.'"
