Lil' Kim

thumb Kimberly Denise Jones (born July 11, 1974), better known by her stage name Lil' Kim, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and model. Quotes After [Biggie] died, honestly, I wanted to remain a baby for a while. His death forced me to become mature too soon. And he was everything to me. My father, sister, brother. He would tell me when to go to sleep, when to wake up. It was crazy. So I wasn’t very confident about this album. I was very depressed, very scared and nervous. Biggie had always been there to tell me what to do We lived on the same block in Brooklyn. I always thought he was cute, and when I first started talking to him. I felt like I’d known him for years I have to admit, when I first came out, guys were loving me. Then all of a sudden it did a total 360. In my first three months on tour, my shows were packed with men. In the next seven or eight months, the whole front row was women. Now it’s a mixture, with a lot of my fans coming from the gay community You know, I’m a very spiritual person, and I believe that when God made you, he made you what you are. So when someone comes along and tries to clone you, they can’t do it. God made everyone separately. If you’re a certain kind of star, someone else can’t come and be that same star. It can’t happen. But I would say that the people who made me say I want to be in this business were Queen Latifah, Da Brat, Salt n’ Pepa, and of course Mary J. Blige. They were definitely my inspiration to this game.
