Lil' Kim - La Bella Mafia

Queen Bee/Big Entertainment/Atlantic recording artist Lil' Kim returns to the musical forefront with the release of her eagerly awaited new single, "The Jump Off," which ships to radio this week. Produced by Timbaland (Missy Elliot, Aaliyah, Jay-Z, Ginuwine), the track - which features former Lost Boyz frontman, Mr. Cheeks - marks the first new Lil' Kim solo music in nearly three years.

"The Jump Off" sets the stage for the release of Kim's new album, "LA BELLA MAFIA," which is slated to be in stores on March 4th. The collection - which follows 2000's RIAA platinum-certified "THE NOTORIOUS K.I.M." - sees the Grammy Award-winning diva joined by such esteemed guests as Missy Elliot, Styles P, Governor, Twista, and Mashonda Tifere, with beats and grooves created by some of today's hottest producers, including Timbaland, DJ Twinz (Mystikal, Redman), EZ Elpee (Mobb Deep, Noreaga), Havoc (Nas, Mobb Deep), Scott Storch (The Roots, Busta Rhymes), Kanye West (Jay-Z, Talib Kweli), and Swizz Beatz (Mary J. Blige, DMX, Ruff Ryders). With "LA BELLA MAFIA," Lil' Kim confirms her status as a multi-faceted superstar with unlimited potential, a hip-hop icon whose irresistible persona looms larger than ever before. High-profile features in a variety of national publications, including Vogue and Nylon, will herald the release of "LA BELLA MAFIA." In addition, Lil'Kim has appeared on the covers of recent issues of The Source, One World, XXL, and Sister2Sister.

Lil' Kim first stepped into the world's spotlight as part of the late Notorious B.I.G.'s rap collective Junior M.A.F.I.A., in which she was the lone female member. Her thugged-out Betty Boop delivery on tracks such as "Player's Anthem" and "Get Money" helped propel Junior M.A.F.I.A.'s 1995 RIAA gold certified Big Beat/Atlantic debut, "CONSPIRACY," into the top 10 on the Billboard 200, and established Kim as Bonnie to Biggie's Clyde.

In 1996, Kim unleashed her classic Undeas/Big Beat/Atlantic debut solo collection, "HARD CORE." Featuring backing from producers such as Sean "Puffy" Combs, Jermaine Dupri and Prestige, the album quickly earned RIAA
double-platinum certification, and confirmed the brazen and provocative Kim as the reigning Queen of Hip Hop.

2000's "THE NOTORIOUS K.I.M" saw Lil' Kim's star continue to rise as she graced the covers of such magazines as The Source, XXL, Interview, and Vibe. In 2001, Lil' Kim teamed with Christina Aguilera, Pink, Mya, and Missy Elliot for the blockbuster remake of "Lady Marmalade" found on the soundtrack to the hit film, Moulin Rouge. The track's success led to Kim winning her first-ever Grammy Award, for "Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals." In addition, the "Lady Marmalade" companion video clip received the 2001 MTV Video Music Award for "Best Video from a Film." Alongside her musical career, Kim has served as spokesmodel for MAC Viva Glam Lipstick, and appeared in ads for both Candie's Shoes and Iceberg Jeans. She has also expanded her talents into the acting world, with parts in She's All That, the Pamela Anderson television series V.I.P., and the 2002 comedy, Juwanna Mann.
