“I’m excited to finally get to tell my story..."
Igår onsdag meddelade Lil’ Kim att hon släpper sin första biografi, betitlad “The Queen Bee”, i höst. Boken, som har skrivits av Kim själv och författaren Kathy Iandoli, kommer att släppas via Hachette Books den 2 november.
“I’m excited to finally get to tell my story after all this time. Many people have thought they knew the story of Lil’ Kim, but they have no idea”, säger den 46-åriga rapparen till People Magazine.
Enligt förlaget är det en “fearless, inspiring, and refreshingly candid memoir” som kommer att täcka hennes första år med The Notorious B.I.G. till att bli en framstående soloartist vid Diddys Bad Boy Records. Men det har också uppmärksammats att hon sägs berätta om mycket om sexism och misogyni inom musikbranschen. I ett pressmeddelande skriver Hachette Books:
“Lil’ Kim not only blazed trails for women in hip-hop, but also inspired the careers of those who followed. However, life at the top hasn’t been easy, either. Lil’ Kim also talks about the hiddden moments of her reign: her complicated high-profile relationships, the misogynistic industry she fought to change through sex positivity, the challenging double standards of self-image and beauty in the spotlight, and the momentous act of loyalty that ultimately landed her in prison.”
Håll utkik den 2 november, alltså.
