What do you think of the pic?

Lil' Kim CFDA Fashion Awards Pint sized rapper Lil' Kim made an appearance at the Council Of Fashion Designers Of America (CFDA) Awards in New York yesterday. This, hands-down, is the best Kim has looked years. Word has it she had her nose re-done again to get rid of them ridiculous dents in them. Whatever she's done, it's working a charm because she looks (and I never thought I'd say this again)...on point!

Stars Come Out For 'Sex & The City' Premiere Stars Come Out For 'Sex & The City' Premiere
The New York premiere for the much anticipated 'Sex & The City' movie took place yesterday. A number of high profile celebs made an appearance including Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson - who stars in the movie, Mary J. Blige, Michelle Williams and Lil' Kim - who also makes a brief cameo in the flick.

I must say, Jennifer Hudson and Michelle Williams looked particularly on-point. Even Kim made a decent showing; the age old adage 'less is more' definitely seemed to be one Kim took on board, as, having left the drag queen make-up at home, she looked the best she has done in a long while. Mary on the other hand looks like the gruelling tour schedule has caught up with her; she looked tired.

Lil' Kim - 'Respirator'After a year long spell in the slammer and having parted ways with longtime label Atlantic, Lil' Kim has returned to the music scene with new single 'Respirator'. I'm kinda on the fence about this one, the first release from her still untitled independent debut. For the most part I'm feeling it - the production is point etc-however her sliding in and out of the vocoder effect on the verses make for an awkward listening experience at times. Having really enjoyed her last LP, 2005's 'The Naked Truth', I'm definitely keeping an open ear to see what she'll be serving up with the next record.

Hit or Miss?

Rapper Lil' Kim made an appearance at Reebok's 'Round The World In One Night' event in New York last night.

Lil' Kim At Reebok EventI can't lie, she's had worse days. Still, that nose. Why, why, why? Anyway, she needs to hurry with that new album of hers; her days of relevancy are dwindling with every random event she seems to be turning up to.

Peep rapper Lil' Kim arriving at the screening for 'Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton' in this aptly designed Marc Jacob outfit. If you place your hand over her head, the pic looks kinda good; but what the hell is going on with her face. She looks a complete different race. Kim, get it together!

Lil' Kim Parts Ways With Atlantic Records Rapper Lil' Kim has officially parted ways with longtime label, Atlantic Records, according to Billboard.com. The pint-sized star plans to release her next album independently. Check out part of their report below:
On DJ Kay Slay's Sirius Satellite Radio show "Streetsweeper Radio" last week, Kim shared that she harbors no ill feelings toward Atlantic. She said she was afraid to release her music independently several years ago but is now more comfortable in her knowledge of the music business to work her project.

It's rumored that the MC will join Capitol Music Group's independent arm, Imperial Records, however Kim's management was unavailable for comment. Fat Joe is also signed to Imperial.

Lil Kim's upcoming album, which was originally slated for February, is now tentatively set for April or May 2008.

Kim's Atlantic swan song, 2005's "The Naked Truth," has sold 394,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
I was kinda surprised by this, simply because I thought Kim had left Atlantic soon after being release from jail in 2006. An increasing number of artists are opting for the independent route, with varying levels of success. It'll be interesting to see how things pan out for The Queen Bee.

Any thoughts?

The beef between female rappers Lil' Kim and Remy Ma continues to escalate; pint-sized Kim hits back at the former Terror Squad on this track -which samples Lauryn Hill's 'Lost Ones'. It's getting kinda messy...

Former Terror Squad rapper Remy Ma stopped by a radio station to respond to a recent diss track directed toward her by Lil' Kim:
“That little boy better leave me alone,” Remy said referring to Lil Kim. “ She was saying ‘I’m going at [Remy] hard, she go hard to me so I go hard back’. I feel like if that’s going at me hard, like seriously, I’m just gonna chill out. That’s crazy to me.”

“What did she say? ‘Put it on my lipstick, I was to be busy being conceited’. Like, how could you be conceited, you don’t even like your own face,” Remy continued. “ What are you talking about? Are you serious? How was I supposed to take that offensive.” “I don’t believe you,” stressed Remy. “ You don’t like your nose, you don’t like your cheek , you don’t like your chin, you don’t like your skin color, you don’t like your tits , you don’t like your stomach, you don’t like your teeth. What are you talking about?”

“At the end of the day it’s funny to me. When I really feel like it’s amusing, when I feel like someone’s getting at me, then I’ll drag them all over the first spot that I see them of course,” Remy continued. “ But in the meantime, in between time…like this chic has more ghostwriters than Foxy [Brown]. I just feel like right now she’s reaching,”
Hmmm...I like Kim (moreso than Remy), but she can't be going on at anyone looking the way she does these days. I mean, as much of a mess as Remy is, Kim just..well..watch the vid below to see what I mean:

Any thoughts?

Rapper Lil' Kim attended the Jason 'Baby-J' Martin & DJ Sussone Birthday Extravaganza in New York this past weekend. I dunno, but since the surgery, Kim's look has ranged from 'ok' to train-wreck. About this pic, let's just say she's had better days....SMH

In somewhat of a surprising move, 50 Cent and Lil' Kim have collaborated once again for this new track 'Wanna Lick' (Magic Stick - Part 2), the sequel to the 2003 original. This their collaboration for the forthcoming G-Unit LP 'Shoot To Kill' (due in December) is kinda unexpected, considering their much publicized 'beef' a few years back. Anyway, about the track, it's pretty good. Not sure if it tops the original, but still decent all the same.

Keyshia Cole was joined by Lil'Kim and Missy Elliott on BET's 106 & Park on Monday to perform her smash hit 'Let It Go'. The energy from the trio and the crowd alike was off the charts. Great stuff. Keyshia's new album 'Just Like You' is in stores now.

R&B singer Keyshia Cole performed her smash hit 'Let It Go' during her show at New York's Nokia Theatre this past Sunday (August 19th). Billed as the surprise of the night, both Missy Elliott and Lil' Kim joined her onstage to perform their song. I'm really loving the performance; Keyshia sounded great and the crowd were hyped throughout - especially when Missy and Kim came out. Great stuff.

Lil' Kim attended the star-studded Beckham 'Welcome' party earlier this week in Los Angeles. It's well known that Kimmie's been under the knife a few times, but this just drove it home...she looks a mess. Why she decided to tamper with her previously pretty face I'll never know, but this is just sad. On a side note, I'm still waiting on that post-prison album, as -looks aside-Kim is still one of the best female MC's.

Any thoughts?

According to AllHipHop.com, rapper Lil' Kim has (re)signed with Diddy's Bad Boy Records. The pint-sized star made her first appearance as a renewed Bad Boy artist during Diddy's set at Hot 97's Summer Jam event on June 3rd. This may come as a surprise to some, as the relationship between Kim and Diddy was rumored to be far from great.

I'm not entirely sure if it's true, but it could be a good thing for Kim. Despite the obvious complications promoting her last LP 'The Naked Truth' (due to her prison sentence), Kim's then-label Atlantic messed up the project with wack video's and poor promo. Needless to say, the album tanked. Maybe Diddy will do her right with this new deal. Then again, when does Diddy do anyone right? 112, Danity Kane, Cheri Dennis....the list goes on.


Do you think Lil' Kim is right to sign with Bad Boy?

This new Keyshia Cole track is slated to be featured on her anticipated sophomore album 'Just Like You' (due later this year). I'm really liking this one; it's a smooth track, which samples a number of past hits - most notably Notorious BIG's 'Juicy'. Keyshia sounds great; Missy and Kim are welcome additions to the song too - with both delivering hot verses. I'm really looking forward to Keyshia's upcoming CD, as the first was solid. Anyway, check out the track...

I really didn't understand all the hype about the original version of Diddy's 'Last Night' - I felt that it was just O.K. It seems I'm in the minority as most people are feeling the track, one his best performing singles from the album. This official remix features Lil Kim, Busta Rhymes and of course Keyshia Cole. I'm really liking it. Some of these remixes end up turning better than the originals, like this and Busta's 'Touch It'. Check it out...

Fabolous - Make Me Better (ft. Ne-Yo)

This track is from Fabolous' upcoming 'From Nothing To Something' album (due June 12th). As with most of Fabolous singles, there is a feature artist- this time it's Ne-Yo. The Timbaland-produced song isn't bad, however it's not that good either. Ne-Yo's singing on the hook sounds uninspired and the track doesn't really go anywhere.

Download: Make Me Better (ft. Ne-Yo)

-----------------------------------

Naturi (Formerly of 3LW) - Real Chick (ft. Lil' Kim)

Some of you may remember Naturi from her time in R&B group 3LW; depending on which side you believe - she left or was kicked out. Whatever the case, Naturi was replaced in 2002. While it's good to know she hasn't disappeared altogether, she needs to go back to the studio if this is all she can come up with. After listening to this one several times, I still dunno what the hell she's singing about. On the plus side, Kim's rap is kinda good. I hear Naturi is working with Jermaine Dupri and Nelly, so hopefully her future material is better than this.

-----------------------------------

Aaliyah - Girlfriends

This rare track by the late Aaliyah has only just hit the net. I'm unsure as to what time-frame it's from. 'Girlfriends' is a nice mid-tempo song, however I can see why it was never included on any of her albums; it's just not an album-worthy track.

-----------------------------------

Nina Sky - Clothes Off (ft. Daytona)

One-hit wonders, Nina Sky are back. After the massive success of their 2004 song 'Move Ya Body' they kinda disappeared. 'Clothes Off' is rumoured to be the duo's new single from their upcoming sophomore album 'The Musical' (due later this year). It's a relaxed uptempo track and is pretty good.
