While Remy Ma is starting her prison bid and Foxy Brown was just recently released from hers, fellow female MC Lil’ Kim is gearing up to release a new album.  Not heard from on a mainstream music tip since her September ’05 album, The Naked Truth, the Queen Bee has leaked the first potential track off her forthcoming, currently-untitled LP.  Respirator, which encompasses Kim’s infamous sex appeal, that damned voice-box effect and some Storch-esque Indian drums, sounds more like an experimental voyage than a radio-ready smash.  Regardless, once this makes its rounds in the music game, Kim will likely figure out whether or not her career is on life support.

i like lil kim alot but the chorus sucks and the beat is un-inspired she shoulda did her little spanglish flow on her, use the voicebox a little less, she shoulda had the dream do the chorus

Its cool from the beggining the the beat tight but its not the best because its familar to slow needs to be faster the words honest the lyrics you gotta give it to cuz "everybody need a Lil Kim " she done been through alot but she aint the best and with competition she aint neva been but she still Queen Bee

Was that picture from a Playboy spread? I missed that issue (j/k). Lil' Kim ... no, no, no to the voicebox. The respirator idea with the heartbeat is overdoing it. DJ Z is right about this being more of an experimental song than a ready-for-radio song. I don't want to give this a low rating because I like Lil' Kim, but this was an atrocious song; in any case, welcome back from your mini hiatus LK.

this is trash. I love ya kim. the pic is nice. But this beat is horrible. the lyrics are good, but the voice box is terrible for your voice, and this song flat out sucks. This Pic however is nice.

What in the world is wrong with her flow. Her and Foxy are making me mad with these weak and sad tracks they dropping. This was a no no - everybody can't do the voicebox. Is she trying to sing and rap at the same time? I'm so with DJ Z "sounds more like an experimental voyage than a radio-ready smash." 1 star cuz it's Kim 1 Star for trying~(**)~

What the hell? @*#$! a voicebox. TO ALL ARTIST: That voicebox shit is career killer #1.

Only one that can pull it off is T.Pain b/c he started out doing that shit from the jump.

Dangg,Lil Kim what happened??? Im not feelin' this,I think Lil Kim couldve did MORE better than this,and with the voice box thing I have to agree with Mayne,T-Pain IS the only one that sounds good with it because he started using It wayyy before anyone else and actually sounded great!I'm not even a fan of Lil Kim and the all the other female rappers but,Trina and Khia,they the ones who are on the female rap game right now!

ok the voicebox is just like women clothing. Everything ain't for everybody. Just because they make it in you size doesn't mean you should wear it. Stop the madness! This is trash.
