Apparently Accidental Racist just wasn't enough for LL Cool J and Brad Paisley!

The two have been the center of criticism and the butt of many jokes because of their previous collaboration, but that didn't stop the two of them from teaming up again on the rapper's latest album, Authentic!

Brad recently spread the word via Twitter, writing:

That Stephen Colbert is always up to no good, and that's why we LOVE him!

Recently, country music star Brad Paisley has been under fire for his controversial collaboration with LL Cool J on Accidental Racist, so naturally the comedian had to throw in his two cents!

After dissecting the lyrics for analysis, Stephen concluded that the tune had done its job by getting people of all races to agree on one thing:

"This song sucks!"

He sure has a way with words!

And the jokes didn't end there, as he decided to

Okay, not really better…but this is better.

Country star Brad Paisley and actor/hip-hop icon LL Cool J recently released a controversial tune called Accidental Racist…

And even though both duet partners have attempted to defend the track on various promotional appearances, it wasn't until they visited the Weekend Update stage during this past weekend's Saturday Night Live that they really got into the MEAT of the song.

Ch-ch-check out Brad and LL attempting to explain the many clever subtleties of Accidental Racist to Seth Meyers (above)!

LOLz!!

Ok obvi that isn't REALLY the song's original crafters, but rather the always AWEsome Jason Sudeikis and Keenan Thompson impersonating the musical duo.

HIGHlarious!

Don't call it a comeback backtrack, he's been here for years!!

Rapper LL Cool J took more heat than your mama's casserole for Accidental Racist, his new duet with country legend Brad Paisley!

The controversial song asks rural Southern whites to empathize more deeply with urban blacks (and vice-versa), but after its release earlier this week both artists were panned for their involvement!

LL thinks it's a step in the right direction, however.

Ch-ch-check out his candid Tonight Show chat with Jay Leno (above)!

The phenomenal Phenomenon rapper & Any Given Sunday actor understands their track makes awkward and clumsy metaphors, but that's OK! His goal was to start a dialogue and he believes he succeeded.

Aww! With chocolate abs that sexy, you never need to explain yourself to us, LOLz!!

Brad Paisley and LL Cool J have been caught in a PR nightmare since the release of their track, Accidental Racist.

And though we’re not entirely surprised the duo have been getting a ton of slack for their confederate-questioning song, they’re nothing but proud of it.

Brad took to Twitter to defend his latest work with the following:

Unbelievable!! Pick the pieces of our exploded brain up off the floor because our minds are BLOWN!

An LL Cool J & Brad Paisley duet isn't something we expected to hear this lifetime, but both artists are totes talented… so why the eff not, right?!

As shocking as the the names on the track might be, the REAL surprise here is Accidental Racist's controversial and sensitive subject matter!

It's not every day that you see country musicians doing the dougie, but that's exactly what we got at the 2013 Academy of Country Music Awards!

The show got kicked off with an all-star performance of Blake Shelton's Boy's Round Here with a little help from Sheryl Crow, Brad Paisley, Luke Bryan, and Pistol Annies!

Ch-ch-check out the star-studded opening (above)!

The song sticks to it's country roots with lyrics about chewing tobacco and hangin' out at the honky-tonk, but things get a little weird when the boys try to show off their lack of rapping skillz!

That's right! Blake and Sheryl spit some rhymes about being "backwoods legit" and not knowing how to do the dougie, which Luke definitely proves with his awkward dance moves!

Overall, the song was actually a pretty awesome way to open the show, but maybe next time they should keep the rapping to a minimum! LOLz!
