Lil Kim is the queen of hip-hop, according to Lil Kim, that is. "I am definitely the queen," Kim told xxlmag.com. "I definitely see myself as the queen. I am the one who made it possible for females to be sexy. That's just the bottom line. And I still rap hard with the fellas."

Lil Kim is still as defiant as ever. In the interview, she goes on to tout her legacy. "I'm dying this way. With the crown on my head. Nobody can take nothing away from me." She adds that women in hip-hop lack unity today, compared to their predecessors. "When we made it to the top, the real divas--me, Missy, Eve--we had no problem standing in a line. Look, let's get this money. We did songs together."

Lil Kim is prepping her new set, Hardcore 2K13, a nod to her debut album.
