Last month, Lil’ Kim announced that she will release her first album in 14 years this summer.
The US rapper’s last album, ‘The Naked Truth’, arrived back in 2005 and featured the single ‘Lighters Up’. It marked her fourth full-length LP, proceeded by ‘La Bella Mafia’ (2003), ‘The Notorious K.I.M’ (2000), and ‘Hard Core’ (1996).
The NYC artist took to social media to confirm her long-awaited comeback record ‘9’. It is set for release on May 17.
Meanwhile, back in January, Stefflon Don teamed up with Wiley, Sean Paul and Idris Elba on a new track called ‘Boasty’.
‘Boasty’ – co-produced by Toddla T and Rotterdam’s Mucky – hears Jamaican dancehall legend Paul collaborate once again with Stefflon Don. The pair previously worked together on the recently released ‘Shot & Wine’ and 2018’s ‘Jet Plane Trip’. Paul also remixed Stefflon Don’s tune ‘Hurtin’ Me’ in January 2018.
