While Lil' Kim's "The Naked Truth" album drops in stores today, she is not out and about doing promotions for it because she is presently serving a 366 day term in jail for perjury towards a Grand Jury. Basically, she lied--or had her boys back--about a shoot out between her entourage and her rival Roca Fella Recording Artist, Foxy Brown and her entourage . Lil' Kim claimed she didn't see anything, but video said otherwise...
Her original sentence was to be endured at a prison camp, but that was later changed to a Philly federal prison much like the one the Original Gangster, Martha Stewart did her time in...
In this time of challenge for Lil' Kim I just want to give her props for having a brothas back. Yeah, she caught the heat for lying in court, but her intentions were supportive of a Brotha. I can dig that. Plus, from my experience, court is the worst place for a Brotha to be standing or sitting in. It's just not a cool feeling and the average Brotha like myself will take all the help I can get--thanks Kim!
Say what you want about Lil' Kim, but she definitely embodies a character trait that Brothas could use more of.
In return I'm going to do my part and buy her CD--not the bootleg--which is supposed to be the hottest full length Hip Hop project released by a female to date! I don't know how true that statement is, but based on what I've heard from the CD and know of Lil' Kims lyrical skills, I wouldn't be surprised if she shines above and beyond this chapter in her life.
Lil' Kim, you go!




You cannot be serious? But I'm sure you are.
Lil Kim represents so many fool Black women I have seen go to jail.Those taking up for and standing beside Brothas who did wrong and now she gets caught taking the heat.
The same men Kim took up for turned on her.Oh yeah, that worked out perfectly for them, but what about this Sistah?
Your words are sad and will surely be read by some dumb Black girl who thinks taking the heat for her low life drug dealing Black man is a "good" thing.
Black women/Mothers are fast outpacing our men in going to prison and the majority of those crimes are boyfriend and drug related.
Be careful the foolishness you write Brotha.

I'm just saying I appreciate the thought. Unfortunately it wasn't "well thought out."
BTW, have you even been a brotha in court with no Johnny Cochran?
