Kimberly Denise Jones (born July 11, 1974 or 1975),^[2] known professionally by her stage nameLil' Kim, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, model, and actress. She was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, living much of her adolescent life on the streets after being expelled from home. In her teens, Jones would freestyle rap, heavily influenced by fellow female hip-hop artists like MC Lyte and The Lady of Rage. In 1994, she was discovered by fellow rapper The Notorious B.I.G., who invited her to join his rap group Junior M.A.F.I.A.; their debut album as a group, Conspiracy, generated two top 20 singles in the United States and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Lil' Kim's debut studio album, Hard Core (1996), was certified double platinum by the RIAA, has since sold more than 6 million copies worldwide,^[3] and spawned three successful singles: 'No Time', 'Not Tonight (Ladies Night)', and 'Crush on You'. Her following albums, The Notorious K.I.M. (2000) and La Bella Mafia (2003), were also certified platinum, making her the only female rapper besides Missy Elliott and Nicki Minaj to have at least three platinum-certified studio albums. In 2001, she was featured on the single 'Lady Marmalade' (a remake of the 1975 hit single of the same name, originally recorded by LaBelle), alongside Mýa, Pink and Christina Aguilera, which went to number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. In addition, the remake won two MTV Video Music Awards including Video of the Year, and a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals at the 44th Grammy Awards in 2002. In 2005, she served a yearlong prison sentence for lying to a jury about her friends' involvement in a shooting four years earlier. During her incarceration, her fourth album, The Naked Truth, was released to positive reviews from critics. She returned to the public eye in 2009 with an appearance on Dancing with the Stars.

Life and career

Early life and career beginnings

Jones was born in the Bedford–Stuyvesant neighborhood of the New York City borough of Brooklyn, the second child of Linwood Jones, a former U.S. Marine,^[14] and Ruby Jones (later Ruby Jones-Mitchell).^[15] She has one older brother named Christopher.^[16] As a child, Jones attended Queen of All Saints Elementary School in Brooklyn.^[17] At the age of 9, her parents separated, and Jones was raised by her father, with whom she had a tumultuous relationship.^[17] After being kicked out of her house by her father, Jones dropped out of high school and began living out on the streets.^[18]

While still a teen, Jones met The Notorious B.I.G. a.k.a. Biggie Smalls (real name Christopher Wallace), who was a key figure in both her personal and artistic life, particularly after Wallace gained popularity and influence through his relationship with Bad Boy Records, founded by Sean 'Puff Daddy' Combs.^[19] Jones attended Sarah J. Hale Vocational High School for two and a half years. Many of her friends also went there and she would often skip school to hang out with them. Since her school work wasn't being completed, the decision was made for her to transfer to Brooklyn College Academy to finish her remaining year and half of school.^[20] It was the same school that fellow rappers Nas and Foxy Brown attended.^[21]

In 1994, B.I.G. was instrumental in introducing and promoting the Brooklyn-based group, Junior M.A.F.I.A., which included Jones, who adopted the stage name Lil' Kim and was only 19 at the time. The group's first and only album, Conspiracy, was released to mediocre reviews and moderate sales on August 29, 1995 and debuted at number eight on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling 69,000 copies in its first week of release. Wallace wrote (and ghost wrote) most of the album's material.^[22] Three hit singles came from Conspiracy: 'Player's Anthem', 'I Need You Tonight', and 'Get Money'.^[23] The RIAA certifiedConspiracy gold on December 6, 1995. 'Player's Anthem' and 'Get Money' were certified gold and platinum respectively.^[24] Lil' Kim's increasing popularity as a member of Junior M.A.F.I.A. allowed her to start a solo career shortly after the Conspiracy album was released, and she began working on what would become her debut album Hard Core by late 1995.

1996–2002: Hard Core and The Notorious K.I.M.

After a year with Junior M.A.F.I.A., Lil' Kim began her solo career by making guest performances on R&B albums and recording her debut album, Hard Core, which was released in November 1996. The album debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200, the highest debut for a female rap album at that time,^[25] and number 3 on Billboard's Top R&B Albums,^[26] selling 78,000 copies in its first week of release and has sold over 5 million copies worldwide.^[22]Hard Core was certified double platinum by the RIAA on March 14, 2001 after having been certified gold on January 6, 1997 and platinum on June 3, 1997.^[27] The album's lead single 'No Time', a duet with Combs (who would later change his stage name to 'P. Diddy' and then 'Diddy'), reached the top spot of the Billboard Hot Rap Tracks chart^[19] and was certified gold by the RIAA.^[27] The following single, 'Crush on You', reached number 6 on the Hot 100 and number 2 on the rap chart.^[28] A remix of the album's track 'Not Tonight' saw Lil' Kim team up with Missy Elliott, Angie Martinez, Da Brat and Left Eye of TLC. The song was part of the soundtrack to the Martin Lawrence movie Nothing to Lose, nominated for a Grammy Award, and certified platinum.^[27] In one stockholders' meeting of Warner Bros. Records, activist C. Delores Tucker criticized the label 'for producing this filth,' referring to perceived graphic sexual content in Lil' Kim's lyrics, and labeling them 'gangsta porno rap'.^[29] In 1997, Lil' Kim promoted Hard Core by performing on P. Diddy's 'No Way Out' tour.^[30] The tour continued through to 1998 and became one of the highest grossing hip-hop tours of all time, grossing an estimated $16 million.^[31] That same year, she launched her own label Queen Bee Entertainment. From 1998 to 2000, Lil' Kim continued her road to stardom under the management of B.I.G.'s best friend, Damion 'D-Roc' Butler's 'Roc Management', touring and modeling for various fashion and pop culture companies including Candie's, Versace, Iceberg, and Baby Phat. and even though she had not had an album of her own released, she was seen on dozens of remixes and guest appearances on other artist's records.

On June 27, 2000, Lil' Kim released her second album The Notorious K.I.M. The album marked a new image and revamped look for the rapper. Despite the limited success of its singles, the album debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200 and number 1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, selling 229,000 copies in its first week.^[22] It was certified platinum by the RIAA, four weeks after its release.^[27] It was on this LP that the well-known hip-hop feud between Lil' Kim and Foxy Brown escalated. In 2001, Lil' Kim teamed up with Christina Aguilera, Pink, and Mýa to remake 'Lady Marmalade', which was originally written about a bordello in New Orleans and performed by the group Labelle (which included diva Patti LaBelle) 25 years earlier. The song was recorded for the Moulin Rouge! film soundtrack, released in April 2001, and stayed number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for five weeks. The song also went to number 1 in 50 countries around the world. This was a big accomplishment for female rap, as well as for Lil' Kim, who scored her first number 1 Hot 100 hit^{[citation needed]} and became the second solo female rapper in history to hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 charts.^[32] 'Lady Marmalade' also garnered Lil' Kim her first Grammy Award.

This directly contravened testimony before the grand jury.^[47] Butler and Jackson have since pleaded guilty to gun charges. Jackson was sentenced, in U.S. District Court, to twelve years in federal prison as part of plea bargain in which he admitted to firing at least twenty rounds during the incident. The length of the sentence was said to have been influenced by his previous gun-related convictions.^[46] In July 2005, Lil' Kim was sentenced to a one-year and a day in prison, thirty days home detention upon release from custody, and three years of probation.

Personal life

Lil Kim

In her teens, Jones began dating Shawn Powell. The pair met at the Empire Roller Skating rink in Brooklyn. After a couple of months of seeing each other, Powell was arrested for robbery and was sentenced to eight and a half years in prison. Jones and Powell continued their relationship with Jones visiting frequently and also kept in touch by writing letters to each other. The couple also became engaged while he was incarcerated. During this time was when Jones met Christopher Wallace, and with wanting to focus on starting her rap career the engagement was eventually called off and the couple split.^[137] Shortly after meeting Wallace, Jones had an on and off relationship with him up until his death in 1997. On July 23, 1996, Jones was arrested for possession of marijuana after police raided the Teaneck, New Jersey home of Wallace. The arrest came after police smelled marijuana inside the home when they went to ask for someone to move an illegally parked car. Jones denied she was smoking, claiming she was 'upstairs all day sleeping'.^[138] That same year, during the recording of her debut album, Jones fell pregnant with Wallace's child.^[139] Jones never made it public until 1999 during an interview with The Source. Jones decided to terminate the pregnancy, telling The Source 'I already knew the kind of relationship that Biggie and I had, and I knew that [having a child] was something that couldn't take place...'^[140] Wallace called Jones three days before his death and told her he loved her.^[141] In a 2010 interview with Ed Lover on Power 105, Jones revealed that Wallace assaulted her and she described an incident where he choked her until she passed out.^[142] In 2017, Jones admitted her relationship with Wallace was 'very violent' after Jermaine Dupri claimed that he witnessed Wallace pull a pistol out on Jones.^[143]

On March 17, 1999, Teaneck police issued an arrest warrant after Jones failed to turn up to court dates stemming from her 1996 arrest.^[144] The warrant wasn't a top priority for police and wasn't made public until September 2003, after the story was published online by The Smoking Gun. Jones was later removed from Teaneck's wanted list in October 2003, after $350 in bail was posted on her behalf.^[145] Jones' attorney told reporters that she didn't appear in court as she believed the case had been resolved.^[146]

In 2002, Jones started dating Damion 'World' Hardy; the couple split in 2003. It was during this time that Jones had been a victim of physical abuse. Jones also stated how she had to have multiple nose jobs due to being punched.^[147][148] On June 20, 2003, Jones had $250,000 worth of jewelry stolen from her while catching a flight at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport after a bag, which she intended to carry on, was mixed up with eight other pieces of her luggage.^[149] The missing jewelry was recovered 10 days later, found wrapped up in a rag in a locker room for airline employees by a United Airlines worker.^[150][151] On July 1, 2003, John Acheson was charged after trying to extort $25,000 from Jones in exchange for her stolen jewelry. Acheson, who was never in possession of Jones' jewelry, called Jones' lawyer, Mel Sachs, on June 23 saying he had the jewelry and would exchange it for an initial $5,000 and $20,000 at a later date. Acheson was charged with third degree attempted grand larceny, fourth degree attempted grand larceny by extortion, and attempted coercion in the second degree.^[152] In March 2004, Acheson was sentenced to five days in jail and a $500 fine after pleading guilty to a minor charge of attempted grand larceny.^[153] In 2004, Jones dated record producer Scott Storch. The two met when Storch offered Jones a ride to her hotel.^[154] The couple split after only 2 months together.^[155] In 2013, Storch revealed that he would've married Jones if the relationship had worked out.^[154] In 2007, Jones and Ray J briefly dated.^[156] On June 9, 2014, Jones gave birth to a baby girl, named Royal Reign.^[157][158] Jones identifies as a Christian.^[159]

Controversies

Foxy Brown

Once high school friends, Lil' Kim and Foxy Brown originally remained close despite becoming associates of clashing hip-hop groups Junior M.A.F.I.A. and The Firm, respectively.^[160] In 1995, they collaborated with Da Brat for the remix of 'No One Else' by Total. The following year, they were featured in the Hot 97 NY Fashion Show,^[161] and additionally appeared on the covers of The Source and Vibe.^[162][163] However, their first dispute developed after both of their debut studio albums were scheduled for release a week apart in November 1996.^[162] Media outlets additionally noted similarities between the sleeve covers of Lil' Kim' Hard Core and Brown's Ill Na Na, where the two were shown wearing the same outfit.^[164] In 1997, the feud led to the deterioration of their friendship, and also resulted in the cancellation of a collaborative album Thelma & Louise. Brown noted that the breakdown of their relationship was influenced by their conflicting entourages.^[160] They first attempted a reconciliation in 1998 after Lil' Kim called Brown and her mother after the two were held at gunpoint during a house burglary.^{[160][165][166]}

In January 1999, critics noted the track 'My Life' from Brown's second studio effort Chyna Doll for being an 'open appeal' to Brown's friendship with Lil' Kim, in which she cited the relationship being 'lost for pride', but also contradicted herself after making attacks on 'pointed mistresses'.^{[167][168][169]} Critics indicated the records were in subtle use to diss Lil' Kim, especially since during this time, Brown had been supporting Lil' Kim' rival Faith Evans in multiple interviews.^[168] In February 1999, a significant part of the media took note of Brown 'suddenly sound[ing] 'exactly' like Lil' Kim'.^[170] In late May 1999, Lil' Cease's 'Play Around', featuring Lil' Kim and Diddy, was released to radio airwaves and was set to be featured on Cease's debut The Wonderful World of Cease A Leo.^[162] In the song, after Lil' Kim' guest rap, Diddy recites: 'Stop trying to sound like her too bitches'; a subliminal diss aimed at Foxy.^[162] The line spurred enough controversy that various media sources went on to remark: 'It's finally coming out. Foxy Brown bites worse than a pit bull.'^[171] Additionally, Lil' Kim' guest appearance on Mobb Deep's 'Quiet Storm (Remix)' and her second album's title track, 'The Notorious K.I.M.', were released as diss records to Foxy Brown.^[162] Angered by Lil' Kim' response, Brown collaborated with longtime associates Capone-N-Noreaga on the track, 'Bang, Bang.'^[162] In the track, Brown mimicked Lil' Kim' interpolation of MC Lyte's '10% Dis,' and went on to recite: 'You and Diddy y'all kill me with that subliminal shit.'^[162] Towards the ending of her verse, Brown attacked Lil' Kim' grieving for the loss of Biggie Smalls by remarking: 'Let the nigga [Biggie] rest in peace, and hop off his dick, bitch do you.'^[162][172]

On February 26, 2001, at 3 p.m., when Lil' Kim had left New York radio station Hot 97, a shooting broke out; over twenty shots were fired between two groups of three men.^[173][174] One of the men in the groups was Capone, one-half member of Capone-N-Noreaga, who was entering the Hot 97 building in promotion of interviewer DJ Clue's new album, The Professional 2, which happened to have also featured Lil' Kim.^[175] An affiliate, Efrain Ocasio, from Capone's entourage was shot in the back; both parties from Lil' Kim and Capone denied any involvement in the shooting.^[175] However, a motive behind the shooting was later determined; detectives informed The New York Daily News that it was a result of the verses Foxy Brown recited in 'Bang, Bang.'^[175]

Shaken up by the incident, Brown tried to reach out to Lil' Kim in hopes of settling a truce.^[176] Brown stated, 'I really don't know how it started. But Russell [Simmons] and I, we got together, and I said, 'Russell, I want to call a truce.' I want to have a sit-down with Kim. I don't care what it is. Let's just end it. We can even do a collaboration. We're bigger than this. If it has to start with me, let it start with me.'^[176] Brown even extended an olive branch to Lil' Kim' camp, however Lil' Kim had cut all ties with Diddy and Bad Boy associates and wanted no communication with Brown whatsoever.^[176] On July 6, 2005, Lil' Kim was sentenced to prison for three counts of perjury and one count of conspiracy.^[177]

During the 4-year span leading up to Lil' Kim's sentencing, Brown and Lil' Kim began to exchange subtle diss records towards each other, among them included Lil' Kim' La Bella Mafia,^[178][179] 'Quiet',^[180] and 'Guess Who's Back';^[181] and in turn, Brown's Ill Na Na 2: The Fever and various mixtape freestyles.^[182][183] In the midst of the diss records, Brown was interviewed by Doug Banks in 2003 to disclose any further details pertaining to her dispute with Lil' Kim.^[184] Brown claimed that Lil' Kim was allegedly jealous that Biggie was to include Brown in his Junior Mafia collective.^[184] Brown also added that a tell-all book disclosing the feud would be released in Christmas of 2003.^[184] In her final regards to the dispute, Brown stated: 'Kim is the only female artist that keeps me on my toes. She's the only one that I can look at; and any other artist that says they don't have that one person that keeps them driven... is lying.'^[184]

Following her release from prison, Lil' Kim no longer acknowledged Brown. Brown, on the other hand, has consistently targeted Lil' Kim as a prime basis in her music and concert venues since Lil' Kim' prison release.^{[185][186][187][188][189][190][191]}

On May 17, 2012, Lil' Kim attended an interview with radio show, The Breakfast Club.^[192] When asked about whether or not she had spoken to Brown at all in recent years, Lil' Kim replied, 'I don't even know her. And when I say that; I don't know who she is to these days. I wouldn't even know what her voice sounds like.'^[192]

Nicki Minaj

Lil' Kim has been embroiled in a feud with rapper Nicki Minaj since Minaj dissed Lil' Kim in a track titled 'Hoodstars', which was released in 2003. With Lil' Kim and media critics noticing resemblances with her on the Sucka Free mixtape,^[193] Lil' Kim accused Minaj of copying her image saying, 'If you are going to steal my swag, you gonna have to pay. Something gotta give. You help me, I help you. That's how it goes to me.'^[193] Minaj's single 'Roman's Revenge' with Eminem was believed by critics to be a response to Lil' Kim's comments,^[194] although she later denied this,^[195] she responded to the situation in an interview on The Angie Martinez show saying 'She picked a fight with Foxy, then she picked a fight with Eve, then she picked a fight with Remy, then it was Mrs. Wallace, then it was Nicki Minaj', said Minaj. 'Every time you in the news, it's 'cause you gettin' at somebody! Where's your music? Put your music out, and when I see your name on Billboard, that's when I'll respond to you. Other than that, goodbye. It's Barbie, bitch.'^[196]

Lil' Kim reignited the feud following the release of her mixtape Black Friday, an album that directly referenced Nicki Minaj, via her debut album title and songs such as 'Did It On'em' (that became 'Pissin' On'em'); and with artwork that showed Lil' Kim decapitating Minaj with a sword.^[197] A fragment of Minaj's diss track 'Tragedy' was released online in April 2011, featuring lyrics 'Pink Friday, Eminem, 8 Mile/ It must hurt to sell your album on PayPal.'^[198] Following the release of Minaj's second album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, critics suggested that the tracks 'Stupid Hoe'^[199] may have contained attacks at Lil' Kim. Lil' Kim later suggested in an interview with 105's Breakfast Club that the song 'Automatic' from Minaj's second album was similar to her unreleased material, also calling Minaj 'obnoxious' and 'catty'.^[200]

Legacy

Throughout her career, Lil' Kim has earned numerous honors and awards.

The song won a 2002 Grammy Award in the category of 'Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals'.
