Lil' Kim

Lil’ Kim has been one busy bee lately. The pint-sized rapper, who recently turned 35, reveals that she has been working on her next album and collaborating with Dr. Dre and Keri Hilson.

“I’m doing a collaboration with Keri Hilson. I’m so excited,” the Queen Bee told Hollywood.tv of the Polow Da Don production. “This is for her album though, so you might be hearing that song really soon.”

Kim also dropped another bombshell, sharing that she has recorded for what is arguably the most anticipated and pushed back album of the decade. “I’m on Dr. Dre’s Detox album. I’m really excited about that one!” she exclaimed.

There are reports that she is signing with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation label, however, she would not confirm if a deal had been finalized, saying, “Jay-Z’s awesome and him and I have collaborated numerous times, and we’ve always talked about how great it would be when we team up together, so that’s just a wonderful place to be for any artist and especially for me.”

While no date has been set for her next studio album, Kim plans to drop some singles soon. Timbaland, Detail, and Wyclef Jean, who contributed five songs, are among her collaborators.
