Lil’ Kim Then
Born Kimberly Denise Jones, Lil’ Kim started to rap when she was still a teenager. In 1995, she got her breakthrough by working together with the Notorious B.I.G. and Junior M.A.F.I.A. At the time, she had only been 19 years old. From then on, she and Biggie started an on-again-off-again relationship that only ended when he passed away in 1997. Her debut album is called “Hard Core” and came out in 1996. It had a lot of #1 hits, so we are not at all shocked that it went double platinum as her other albums did.

“It’s like the more money we come across, the more problems we see.” This is a line from “Mo’ Money Mo’ Problems,” a Notorious B.I.G. song. It looks like this was true for Lil’ Kim, who was propelled to fame and saw the pitfalls that naturally came with it. She has seen a bunch of legal and financial issues ever since she made her debut in the music scene. One of the most drastic changes would be the plastic surgeries that she has gotten. It is hard to believe that this is the same woman we loved in the ‘90s!
