Lil Kim Announces ‘Hardcore: Back 2 Da Streetz’ Mix Tape

Published: Friday 26th Jul 2013 by David

Lil Kim silences her naysayers once again, hushing reports the year would see her fail to deliver a new body of work by announcing the release of a brand new mix tape!

Full story below…

In honouring her debut album ‘Hardcore‘, the Rap Empress claws her way back to the top by announcing the birth of ‘Hardcore: Back 2 Da Streetz‘, a new release set to precede her hotly anticipated comeback album.

 

While details on the project are yet to be announced, fans do know that it comes two years after the launch of her ‘Black Friday’ mix tape, and after claiming her new LP is to feature material from iconic songwriter Diane Warren.

Our take on it? We can’t wait to hear it.

For, as long as Kim employs the gifted songwriters, producers and miracles she’ll need to truly see it win, there’s no reason the mix tape can’t be the launching pad for her career revival.

Your thoughts?

    LIL KIM… I love you. I hope her music sounds good. I love her albums from the 1990s & 2000s… Her song “Lighters Up” Goes HARD. Lil Kim has the best rapping voice (FEMALE) IMO

  6. fucl July 26, 2013

    To be released in 2029. You know that lazy b**** Lil’ Kim can’t f****** keep a deadline, self-imposed or otherwise. By the time this comes out, Nicki MInaj will have released over 10,000 new songs and sold 20 million more albums.

    Lil Kim = flop b****. Give it up. No one is checking for you anymore after treating your fans like s*** for so long.

    • GoldenBoy J July 26, 2013

      So you’re saying Nicki needs 10,000 songs to sell 20 million? I see.

    • truth(the new and refined TRUTH. f*** icki she done now i just slay a b****…yew mad??) July 26, 2013

      I feel where u comn from but when u include that B**** icki it nullifies ur comment

      • fucl July 27, 2013

  28. Still I Rise! July 26, 2013

    Lil’Kim’s self esteem is at an all time LOW. She’s to ashamed of her own face to put it on the mixtape cover. The girl is still using the same twitter avi from 2010. Nicki changes her avi damn near every week (confident). It’s unbelievable how naïve Kim’s fans are. They can’t see threw Kim’s lies and b*******. Kim is still not allowed to drop new music, If she does she’ll be sued again. She’s only lying and stringing her fans along so they won’t become Nicki stans. My guess is Kim’s fans will still be waiting for a studio album 5 years from now. And don’t ever expect the Hard Core Kim to rear her head in the rap game again bcus she’s deceased.. RIP Biggie.

    • truth(the new and refined TRUTH. f*** icki she done now i just slay a b****…yew mad??) July 26, 2013

      and your moms ashamed of you honey. (rolls eyes)

    • K July 27, 2013

      STILL I RISE! the hate they have for Nicki Minaj is putting them in to this,permanent delusion and denial,they will never see reason…so Kim will forever play them.

  29. FAF July 26, 2013

    #Pauz

    First off…As much as you stans can say how good or bad someone is….I suggest you look at numbers first. Also, all you so called Lil’ Kim fans didn’t even know about the tracks Kim dropped in the past year plus visuals that no one supported. A mixtape is a good foundation but it’s gonna take more than dropping some music to get people to believe in you again. REAL PERFORMANCES, APPEARANCES, & INTERVIEWS. Kim now is just a internet has been that knows better but chooses her poorly unreliable lifestyle.

    Now about Nicki….Nicki has charted higher than any other female rapper in multiple countries including yours. She’s branding! She tours! She has numerous features and I’m pretty sure she’s on your favs album or mixtape…whoever that is. If Nicki is such a flop then why has she been consistently on your TV and radio? Why she on the cover of numerous magz? B****, why you smell like Pink Friday? Why does she have a movie coming out with Brad Pitt? You h*** mad cuz Nicki first album outsold Lil’ Kim’s career.

    Y’all b****** download s*** for free and support no one but provide opinions. When y’all queens support this has been like I have from the jump then maybe I’ll believe in her again if she spends her money right and stop running around town wit a no name man and an artist (Tiffany Foxx) that she can’t support.

  44. Realist July 26, 2013

    I’m always here for Kimmy girl… No shade tho I am ready for a full fledged ALBUM, although glad to see she’s staying busy in the studio, hopefully it’s getting her in shape for the next era. And why are all these ppl mentioning Nicki Minaj!? Yes now ms Minaj is more commercially popular, but none of her albums or songs are historical, timeless.. Not even one. So please, lets just stop. Kim will always be that b****.. That original b****.. And the b**** who inspired nickis whole swag. PuhLEASE

  45. KING KIM July 27, 2013

    NICKI WHO???
    IGGY WHO???
    AZEALIA WHO???
    JAY WHO???
    CASH MONEY WHO???
    BEYONCE WHO???

    KIMBERLY COMIN FO ALL YALL’S WIGS!

    QUEEN BEE IS COMIN BACK. HIDE YOUR FAVS!!!

    BOW DOWN, B******

    • Gopit July 27, 2013

      Shut up.

  46. HOWYOULIKEIT July 27, 2013

    why cant she put her 2013 face on her own mixtape?

    I’m also sorry for those artists who think thet can recreate the magic they did in the past. HArdcore is 1996 and there will never be another one. Right now you dont have the look, the fashion, the writers, the producers, the team, the talent involved in that era. Give it up and write new s***
