Lil' Kim's debut studio album, Hard Core (1996) was certified double platinum, has since sold more than six million copies worldwide, and spawned three successful singles: "No Time", "Not Tonight", and "Crush on You". It had the highest debut in the US for a female rap album at the time. Her following albums, The Notorious K.I.M. (2000) and La Bella Mafia (2003) were also certified platinum. In 2001, Lil' Kim reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 with the single "Lady Marmalade - from "Moulin Rouge" Soundtrack" (a remake of LaBelle' 1974 single), alongside Mýa, P!nk and Christina Aguilera. Other notable singles from this period include "The Jump Off" and "Magic Stick", the latter of which reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Kim's 2nd-highest-charting single as a lead artist.
In 2005, Lil' Kim served a one-year 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. A reality series covering her sentence, Lil' Kim: Countdown to Lockdown, premiered on BET in 2006. She then released her first mixtape, Ms. G.O.A.T. (2008), and returned to the public eye in 2009 with an appearance on Dancing with the Stars. Throughout the 2010s, she continued to release music and perform sporadically, collaborating with artists such as Faith Evans, Remy Ma and Fabolous. Her fifth studio album, 9, was released in 2019.
Lil' Kim has been referred to as the "Queen of Rap", as well as her alias "Queen Bee" by several media outlets. She has sold more than 15 million albums and 30 million singles worldwide. Her songs "No Time", "Big Momma Thang" and "Not Tonight" were each listed on Complex's list of the 50 Best Rap Songs By Women. In 2012, Lil' Kim was listed on VH1's 100 Greatest Women in Music list at number 45, the second highest position for a solo female hip-hop artist. Aside from music, Lil' Kim is also known for her risk-taking and luxurious approach to fashion that inspired many artists; she has been cited as a fashion icon. She has been noted for helping women embrace their "sexuality and femininity" in a way that was a stark contrast at the time from other female artists.
Dreams
Lil' Kim Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Then rock the shots of liquor
It makes me cum quicker
Rub it on your belly like jelly, R.Kelly
You think you ballin' but your body's callin'
Free fallin' all in, fuck the bumpin' and grindin'
Have you jumpin' and whinin'
When I'm climbin' I be doin' groups like
Watch out now
Baby face can pay the rent
And cook me five meals
Momma got the whip a pill
What the deal on that Prince cat?
He be lookin' kind of fruity
But you still could eat the booty
Brian McKnight's tight
Joe is lookin' kinda slow
And oh what about D'Angelo?
I want some of that brown sugar then
Watch this rap bitch bust all over ya nuts like
Dreams, dreams, dreams of fuckin' and R&B dick (Dreams of fucking and R&B dick)
Dreams, dreams, dreams of fuckin' and R&B dick
I fuck Mike stay flyway
Fuck them Ladae cats they wack
And one of them resemble Craig Mack
I need a New Edition
I need some Men With Vision
Pussy eatin' position to go to shower pissin'
I made my intro getting fucked in the Pinto now
I'm skin deep in the Lexus Jeep
Peep the Queen sista if I would fuck wit Mista
They'd be lickin' blackberry molasses out my asses
Jason who the fuck time ya wastin'
I got no patience for little dick tastin'
I'd rather go dolo wit Solo
Then I can get some Heaven
And be the fuck out After Seven
All for one and one for all
I swear to God I'd never fuck with none of y'all
And if ya immature than I'm out the door
I'm on fire gettin' head by the
