Lil' Kim
No Matter What They Say (Queen Bee/Atlantic)
Evidently a woman whose elevator doesn't stop at every floor, Lil' Kim
basically explains on this, one of the less offensive tracks from her laboured
'Notorious KIM' album, that although she sells next to nothing in this
country, in America she very much lives The Life: Versace threads, house maids,
expensive make-up, diamond-encrusted jewellery... the list, sadly, is endless.
Famous for being famous, we must at least congratulate Kim on her
photographic work with genius fashion snapper David LaChapelle. As for her
music, image, attitude, lifestyle, choice of lipstick - Missy Elliott did
it first, and did so with oodles more style.
