Lil' Kim Makes A Run At Indie

by The Chosen Few on January 23rd, 2008

http://media.defsounds.com/uploads/assets/804/816/5750/asset.jpgQueen Bee has parted ways with her longtime label, Atlantic Records, to release her upcoming album independently.

Last week, during an interview on 'Streetsweeper Radio", Kim said she has no ill feelings towards Atlantic. She also said she's releasing on an independent now because she trusts her knowledge in the music business enough to work on her own project.

Lil Kim recently came back to the rap world with her latest mixtape with DJ WHOO KID entitled "Ms. G.O.A.T".

Originally slated to drop in February, her upcoming untitled album, has been set for a release in April or May 2008.

Rumor has it Kim will join Imperial Records which also hosts another New York MC, Fat Joe.

It makes you wonder will they join forces for a few tracks, maybe even a diss track towards Fat Joe's longtime enemy and Kim's new enemy, Remy Ma, who just recently dissed both of them on a track entitled Doo Wop.

I simply hope that this new album, tentatively dropping in April, pushed back from February, is as fire OR better than the CLASSIC, Naked Truth… 5 mics!

Yeap I got agree Kim def. got the Female crown in a choke hold, her last album was a pure classic, no lie, and I still think both her & fox are the best female Mc’s left in today’s game.
I’ll copp Bothe of their albums.
I mean we forget who co-singed these chicks, Both BIG & Nas molded Kim & Fox to what they are today. So you tell me if you hung out with Big or Nas every other day you wouldn’t start spiting darts after a few weeks

Lil Kim knows that her last album went 5 mics and she didn’t get all the cake she suppose to get because of the big record label. Now you better make sure this album is FIRE because if not you have a lot to lose other than respect from the fans. You will lose bread beacuse this is a small record label. And they are no guarantee no big checks without sales….

I wudnt consider Naked Truth a classix album, but thats as close to classix as u can get, that album was fire, Lil Kim legendary in terms of female artists, tha closest thing to lauryn hill. period so that makes her jus a lil better than remy ma but she kool too

does anybody remember how bad they wanted to fuck kim when she did that poster for her first album? that was my sexy lil hood rat freek! she did herself wrong with that surgery shit but she still got lyrics.

No where near lauryn hill. not even close. lauryn would lay most MCs male or female in the dirt.

Behold, as my odes, manifold on your rhymes
Two MC’s can’t occupy the same space at the same time.
It’s against the laws of Physics.
So weep as your sweet dreams break up like Eurythmics
Rap rejects my tape deck, ejects projectile
Whether jew or gentile
I rank top percentile,
Many styles,
More powerful than gamma rays
My grammar pays,
Like Carlos Sanatana plays
Black Magic Woman
So while you fuming, I’m consuming
Mango juice under Polaris,
You’re just embarrassed
Cause it’s your “Last Tango in Paris”
And even after all my logic and my theory,
I add a muthaf**ker so you ignint niggas hear me.
And you remember take notes,
As I sow my rap oats.
And for you biting zealots, here’s a quote.

Call her a singer if you wanna kid.
kim is ill. i aint dissin her. lauryn is iller. she said she wasnt a rapper because she didnt wanna be looked at as one dimentional. but im feelin you, kim is doin it still, you have a point.

I agree with you Lauryn rips it. But the same way MC Lyte dominated the female rap world in her time is the same way KIM has dominated the female rap world, but KIM has done it much longer than any other female in history. She single handedly changed the game. Her DNA is in every female rapper out, including Remy. Her Legacy alone is bigger than most male rappers.
