It’s finally here!  The Queen Bee of Rap Lil’ Kim is back and ready to reclaim her throne with ‘Hardcore 2:  The Mixtape.’

Teasing fans with drops like that of her newly risen Jadakiss-assisted single ‘Real Slick,’ the highly anticipated mix tape comes as the rap potentate’s first full body of work since 2011’s ‘Black Friday.’  Originally scheduled to drop tonight at 9:11 pm, the demand for the digital album was so great that it temporarily shutdown Kim’s site – sending fans into an uproar over the extended wait.

Responsible for her introduction to the game back in 2006, Ryan Leslie‘s short-lived run at the top with Cassie may seem to have spawned nothing more than a hit in the single ‘Me & U’ and modelling career for the stage-shy singer.

Fortunately for the pair, looks are often deceiving- doing very little to tell a story that’s been anything but short-lived for the producer, who has revealed just how much he has earned from the aforementioned ‘Me’ and its parent album, ‘Cassie.’
