Honey, have you seen MJ lately? Don't go down that road, Lil' Kim, please, baby... [And doesn't she look like, well, plastic now? It's like one of those Lil' Kim dolls from the "How Many Licks" video come to life!]

After seeing that super-scary pic of Lil' Kim (taken today, at her arraignment in NYC on obstruction charges), however, I was reminded of how great she once was, the true "Queen Bitch" of hip-hop. Sadly, her albums (and singles) seem to decrease in quality with each successive release (save perhaps last year's "The Jump Off" and its infamous Sprite reference), but damned if Kim's '97 debut, Hard Core, wasn't positively slammin'. My favorite single taken from it was the "Crush On You" Remix featuring Lil' Cease, her former partner-in-crime from Junior M.A.F.I.A. (and the uncredited Biggie cameo, yessss!). Wasn't it yours, too? Let's remember together (the download is to your right).
