It’s been 12 long years since the masses have been graced with a full album from Hip Hop’s undisputed Queen Bee, Lil Kim.

Although she has dropped singles, made features for other artists, toured frequently, and released small EP’s and mixtapes, she has not released an album since the critically acclaimed, ‘The Naked Truth.’

Kim has been spotted in the studio for some time working on her new album but all details have been mum, until moments ago. Kim took to Instagram on Saturday (Feb.4) to share snaps of her in LA, where she is currently staying while she crafts her highly anticipated project.

She specifically made note to let fans know that she is specifically working on the album. Get into the posts below.
