The Queen Bee's Honey!

Rapper and reality star reveals pregnancy.

Valentine's Day brings news of a veteran rapper of being a first time mommy.

Brooklyn rapper Lil' Kim has decided the time is now to be a parent. As she prepares for the 4-0, Kimberly Jones is flaunting more than the melons. She is sprouting a bump.

Since the Hardcore days, Lil' Kim has flaunted around her "diva" in the faces of men and women alike.

Growing up in the fold of her mentor Notorious B.I.G., Lil' Kim has performing a freestyle rap and it brought her a music career. 

She would be the "female capo" of Biggie's group Junior M.A.F.I.A., whose debut album Conspiracy generated three hit singles.

Lil' Kim's debut studio album, Hard Core (1996) was certified Double Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and spawned three consecutive No. 1 rap hits: "No Time", "Not Tonight (Ladies Night remix)", and "Crush on You", a record for a female rapper. 

Her following albums, The Notorious K.I.M. (2000) and La Bella Mafia (2003), were certified Platinum, making her the only female rapper besides Missy Elliott to have at least 3 platinum albums. She was featured on the single, "Lady Marmalade", which also had guest vocals by fellow recording artists Mýa, Pink and Christina Aguilera (a remake of the 1975 smash hit, originally recorded by LaBelle) which went to No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, making her the first female rapper to have a No. 1 on that chart. In addition, the remake won two MTV Video Music Awards including Video of the Year, and a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals at the 44th Grammy Awards in 2002. In 2005, she served a year long prison sentence for lying to a jury about her friends' involvement in a shooting four years earlier. 

During her incarceration, her fourth album The Naked Truth was released. 

She returned to the public eye in 2009 with an appearance on Dancing with the Stars.

Papers please. The Brooklyn don diva appears with Mr. Papers, the apparent father of her expecting.

Throughout her career, Lil' Kim has earned several accolades for her work. Her songs "No Time", "Big Momma Thang" and "Ladies Night" were listed on Complex Magazine's "The 50 Best Rap Songs By Women", at number 24, 13, and 7, respectively. Crush On You, It's All About the Benjamins and Money, Power, Respect appear on VH1's "The 100 Greatest Hip-Hop Songs".

In 2012, she was honorably listed on VH1's "100 Greatest Women In Music" list at number 45, the second highest position for a solo female hip-hop artist.

Apparently the rapper has been in the middle months of pregnancy and people wanna know who the "baby daddy!"

Some cat named Mr. Papers. I never heard of him, but he'll be known for being the one guy who managed to at least spark an already washed up career.

Should it be said that Lil' Kim is a washed up celebrity? 

I mean how many albums have she released? She hasn't put out an full album in 10 years.

There's a video that appears on YouTube back in 2013 showing the two making out!

I hate to say this, but I'm kind of jealous. She's 40 years old (technically 39 before July) and she's getting knocked up by some young cat. I wouldn't be surprise the baby daddy still gets carded when he goes into a club.

I mean that's the definition of cougar.

When her plastic surgery wasn't noticeable.

On the real, her rival and probably the only Black female rapper who managed to push two double platinum albums. And those who weren't born after 1991 may have heard of her but actually thought it was the rival.

All eyes on Roman.........Not on the Queen!

Anyway, the rapper is going to put her business on a reality show so everyone will know what goes on in the mind of a pregnant rapper. 

Well wishes to Lil' Kim on being a parent. But please keep your personal business off the camera. 

I'm just saying! No disrespect.
