Lil Kim Confirms New Album

Published: Saturday 26th Jan 2013 by David

Lil Kim is back…and this time it’s for good.

That, we hope, is what the world of music will concur with now that the ‘How Many Licks‘ Rapper has confirmed the release of a brand new studio album, two years after releasing the Nicki Minaj fuelled ‘Black Friday‘ mix tape.

Details below…

 With expectations on this LP to move numbers higher than they should be, here’s hoping its sound is strong enough to carry it critically if it doesn’t do what it’s supposed to commercially.

For, as Jennifer Lopez’ ‘LOVE?‘ proves, an unsuccessful LP doesn’t have to mean an unsuccessful era- and that’s why we hope Kim has plans in place to ensure she doesn’t disappear for another five or so years, if it doesn’t do well.

In short, if Kim succeeds in cleaning up her brand and elevating the public’s perception of her, this new album could be used as a launching pad for bigger and better things. The kind of things, that would see her reintroduced to the world as a Hip Hop veteran renown for her classic material  and oft overlooked personality.

Indeed, though this may be a stretch, we’d say a stints on ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ and VH1s ‘Behind The Music’ would go some way to push this personality and give the album the full exposure it deserves before release.

For, whether her detractors would admit it or not, Kim is anything but irrelevant and still has enough interest in her brand to ensure we’ll all be listening when it comes out.

Your thoughts?

    Kimberly!!!! Gurrrrrrl!! If u really are that desperate for that “queen” title then you gotta kill it!! Same s*** with eve!! No one is checking for u like they used to. Nicki is the “new queen” of today! This is a new era! Dont Embarrass yourself!!

      Eat p**** u c*** licker!

    • TBT January 26, 2013

      F*** this “new era”. Most of these “new era” clowns don’t sell records and are only good for a bunch of silly ass iTunes single downloads. That goes for Nicki. Her sales are horrid for all the hype she generates. So it’s time for the prior class — the ones who actually moved units — to come back and do the s*** right since fools like Nicki can’t.

      • PSA (FAF) January 26, 2013

        @TBT over 3.5mil albums sold over 6mil singles sold in a yr !

      • truth(slayer of icki funky ass stans B****!!) January 26, 2013

        But she not in da us tho…

      • TBT January 26, 2013

        ROFL. Where did you come to the erroneous conclusion that 1.5 WW was anything to celebrate? 1.5 million stateside would have been lackluster…1.5 WW is f****** terrible. #ICANT with you Nicki stans who get on here and try to brag about TERRIBLE numbers like they’re good. Nicki is in her “IT” girl stage, or so we’re supposed to believe, she should be 5x better sales wise than she is. Considering all the hype, promotion and press she gets, that album should be AT LEAST 3x platinum in the US and 6 or 7 million WW. Not under 1 million sold in the U.S. and just 1.5 million WW. That’s awful! Y’all brag, but you obviously don’t buy.

  18. @Taimiicel January 26, 2013

  42. SlayDeleAdkins January 26, 2013

    @TBT
    Regardless of how many units nicki is selling, the “clowness” and “silly ass itunes downloads” nicki is STILL SELLING regardless!! What other female rapper is shifting more units than her in this day and age? Think about it, Whos gonna buy a kim record in 2013?? Who????
    “the ones who actually moved units” who are u referring too?? kim? missy? eve? just because they moved units BEFORE doesnt mean they are gonna do it again!! u gotta be logical because there is no way in hell that people like kim or eve are gonna rise up and replace nicki from that “spotlight” because nicki is more dominant! . You saying “f*** this new era” is ignorant because it matters!

    • truth(slayer of icki funky ass stans B****!!) January 26, 2013

      Chile please calm down

      • SlayDeleAdkins January 26, 2013

        I Am calm. I think its u who needs to calm down boo!

    • msteefromdc January 30, 2013

      but your statement makes no sense..so all the people who were buying kim’s music before won’t buy it again? is that what you’re saying..unless all her fans end up dead sometime soon..then she will still sell..regardless of whoever tries to discredit lil kim..she has paved the way for most of the rap bytches..and no one could ever take that away from her…the difference between her and nicki is that…kim will always be relevant at whatever age..she’s been n the game since she was 17..it’s 2013 and she’s still relevant..she may not have any new music but she can still have concerts that are sold out almost 20 years later. And nicki is n her prime..and she can’t even move a million units…and she’s already on a judging show (where the hasbeens go). nicki will not be relevant in 10 years..shoot not even 5 years. her music is garbage and it’s not memorable at all. kim will always generate money cuz her shyt still get plenty of spins daily. and nicki shouldn’t keep tryna put out cd after cd and video after video..cuz this is what happens..people are sick and tired of her and she bought anything of substance to the music game..she’s overrated and oversaturated and people are just f****** sick of her…

  43. truth(slayer of icki funky ass stans B****!!) January 26, 2013

    Im gonna turn ovet a new leaf this year and nit go in so hard. On deze girl

  44. Maestro J* January 26, 2013

    The TRUTH is … this is Lil’ Kim. She’s a legend. She the REASON WHY we have a Nicki Minaj to even compare her to. So lets get real. We all here now one thing Kim can do is RIDE A BEAT and Im sure she’s got some s*** thats gonna make the club go awf!!!

    • msteefromdc January 30, 2013

      abso f****** lutely…couldn’t agree more!!!

      bout time somebody kept it real instead of all the hatin..

  45. ….. January 26, 2013

    well you people have to wait till it comes out and tops itunes….

  46. boi2king January 26, 2013

    This is an honest article!!! props to whoever wrote it because everyone, like myself, would like to see and hear lil’ kim more often. Like what was stated above, lets hope lil kim can get her music and her look together so people will quit bashing her so hard. She is talented so I dont see why she has fell off the way she has……..

  47. Drew January 26, 2013

    Can’t wait! She just shot a music video for ‘Jay Z’ with TIffany Foxx & is working on a new album. #TeamLilKim

  48. IDK January 26, 2013

    For those who say nicki hasn’t sold out shows like Kim in 2007 NICKI SHOW GET SOLD OUT IN A MATTER OF AN HOUR OR LESS SOMETIMES 10 MINUTES THOSE ARE ARENAS TOO unlike Kim’s raggedy ass selling out shows in dds discounts and church’s chicken GIRL BYE TEAM MINAJ YMCMB TIL THE DEALTH OF ME
