User Album Review
...this is the best album Kim has produced since her debut...
Maxine Headley 2005
Never one to shy away from controversy or - as it turns out -prison, Naked Truth is about a woman's rage, as Lil' Kim declares herself to be 'No more Ms nice bitch.'
Throughout this fourth solo album she unapologetically delivers subliminal jabs and outright name-calling to pretty much everyone, including Foxy Brown, 50 Cent, and evenher former rap collective Junior M.A.F.I.A..
If you look past the continuous references to the late Notorious B.I.G.(yeah, we get the message!), lyrically and stylistically this is the best album Kim has produced since her debut Hardcore. Funny, it is often said that an artist's best work comes as a result of adversity...guess a few flunking stars need to start committing crimes.
