Details: Amazon.ca Lil' Kimberley Jones is back, looking "hotter than a pop tart right out of the toaster". Taking on the mantle of her lover/mentor Biggie Smalls, Queen Bitch waxes lyrical on her two obsessions, sex and crime, and delights in her role as a predatory female. "Imagine if I was a dude, hitting cats from the back," she muses on the rough-riding role-reversal of "Suck My Dick"; then she switches positions, fantasising her ideal lover on "How Many Licks" (accompanied by the falsetto wail of booty impresario Sisqo) and spreading her lyrical legs for her fans on lockdown. The apocalyptic "Revolution" features a glorious Grace Jones cameo and all the trademarks of Puffy's previous string-strewn epic, "Come With Me", while Kim and Lil' Cease make like Bonnie and Clyde trapped in a John Woo movie and do a number on some rival felon. She shows her corrosive mettle on the Pat Benatar sample-slaying, "Don't Mess With Me". Elsewhere the black widow smears herself over salsa rhythms ("No Matter What They Say") and some "Custom Made" moans and groans sampled from Lil Louis' "French Kiss". This pop tart has a poisonous aphrodisiac filling. --Chris Campion Product Description It's the year of Y2Kim, which is precisely why Brooklyn's own diminutive diva is massing her musical troops at the border - preparing for a no-prisoners hip hop takeover of the multi-platinum variety. Since establishing herself as a major solo player in 1997 with an RIAA platinum certification for her breakout '96 HARDCORE album, platinum with the daring "Not Tonight" and gold for her unforgettable "No Time" single, the Junior M.A.F.I.A. vet has become a true star - so much so that earlier this year she was invited, alongside such presenters as Paul McCartney, Diana Ross, Patti Smith, and John Mellencamp, to induct Earth, Wind & Fire into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame. In between, she contributed to recordings by Jay-Z, Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott, Mobb Deep, Funkmaster Flex, Black Rob, labelmate Lil' Cease, and Tommy Lee's Methods of Mayhem. The second release from Kim's own Queen Bee label, the incendiary album finds Kim collaborating with such serious talents as Prestige and Lil' Cease, not to mention executive producer partner Puff Daddy. The superstar studio team is sure to turn heads with the album's standout style and Kim's distinctive lyrical twist on true blue sexcapades. Achieving magna cum louda excellence on such ground-shaking tracks as "Suck My D!#k," "Single Black Female" and "Who's Number One", THE NOTORIOUS K.I.M. will define the new hip hop moment and open wide the doors to Kim's singular musical vision and outspoken world view. This Queen Bee is on the buzz. Certified at 1 million units by the RIAA. (2/01)
