 (38 Customer Reviews)
"Came Back For You" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Female Rap Solo Performance. "Magic Stick" was nominated for Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group.
Lil' Kim launched from the Junior M.A.F.I.A. in 1996 with the aptly titled hit HARDCORE, using every bit of the sexuality she possessed in both her raw, tart rhymes and the provocative (and certainly unavoidable) marketing campaign surrounding her, becoming the first female hardcore rapper to go multi-platinum. With her notorious, larger-than-life image, it's easy to forget that the Queen Bee's still got the pipes to back up her undeniable swagger on her third offering LA BELLA MAFIA.
Kim's outspoken style is just the thing for belting out boasts like "I'm the real thing, y'all karaoke stars" on "This Is Who I Am" or issuing a song-long threat ("someone's gonna get in your house and put the (click) right in your mouth), the embodiment of a '30s gangster moll, on "This Is a Warning." Her commandeering, overwhelming sexuality is still alive and potent on "The Jump Off" featuring a guest shot by Mr. Cheeks, and she kicks down doors with Missy Elliott on a brazen declaration of self with the catchy "Can You Hear Me Now?"
Everyone's favorite hardcore female rapper returns with her hottest and hardest effort to date. Lil' Kim is joined by her friends Missy Elliot, Method, Styles P, Governer, Twista and Mashonda Tifere. Includes a limited bonus collectible card inside unlocking exclusive photos, videos and much more. Queen Bee/Atlantic. 2003.

As bass player and backup singer for Buck Owens and His Buckaroos -- considered by some to be the finest country band of all time -- Doyle Holly helped to define and perfect the Bakersfield sound that continues to exert a powerful influence on country music well into the 21st century. A reunion album with Owens and the surviving Buckaroos was an exciting idea, but the realization of it is something of a disappointment. Not because the music is less than fine; on the contrary, none of these guys has lost a lick, instrumentally speaking, and while Holly's and ...
