Lil' Kim has unveiled the cover to her upcoming single, "Keys to the City" (featuring Young Jeezy). It features the rapstress standing in a corner wearing a black and silver tight fitting dress.
During an interview with MTV, Kim explained the legal hurdles which prevented her from recording a new album:
"When I came home from prison in 2006, I was really unhappy with my label so I wanted to get off, and I didn't get released. I wasn't dropped. I had to pay them. So, at the end of the day, it's like that takes time."
"Contractually, by the courts, I could not record any music. I wasn't supposed to put any music out. Technically Black Friday was a mixtape, so I was able to get away with that. But technically they could have come after me if I were to put out an album. I couldn't do it," she added.
