Lil' Kim... "Put Ya Lights Up"

Lil' Kim's new song "Lights Up" is one of my favorite's.
I woud agree that her music is rough , and kids should stay away!

But the girl is talented, and she used captalism, and the open market to its

extreme, and like the boy's of Wall Street she also got into trouble!

The talented diva, is on her way to jail!

With her tough street smarts she will get through!

She say's her freinds set her up, and maybe they did.

But she did lie under oath, and I guess the judge wanted to make her an example.

Thus lies the paradox of fame!

Do ya time girl, and do something good when you come out!!

I hope she reflects about her music, and her goals!

If Martha Stewart is an example of a come back,

Lil Kim will be back on top!

In the words of the rap Diva

"New York, put your lighters up, D.C. keep puttin them lighters up Philadelphia, put your lighters up, Detroit, put your lighters up Chi Town keep puttin them lighters up, no matter where your from put your lighters up" and I guess that would include the Big House!

NEW YORK —

Superstar rapper Lil' Kim donned an orange jumpsuit at a drab and "degrading" federal jail in Philadelphia Monday to begin serving her year-and-a-day criminal sentence for perjury, The Post has learned.
Several sources said Lil' Kim will join a small group of women serving sentences for convictions at Philly's Federal Detention Center, where most of the 1,100 inmates are men and women awaiting criminal trials.

Kim, 30, is expected to walk into the jail in the Center City historic district, and surrender at 2 p.m.

After that, she will likely be seen by the jailhouse doctor, strip-searched by guards and made to "squat and cough" to show she has no hidden contraband in her body. She then will be issued an orange jumpsuit.

The rapper — whose real name is Kimberly Jones was convicted earlier this year of lying to a federal grand jury about a Hot 97 radio-station shootout involving two members of her posse.

Federal prison officials selected the jail for Kim Friday, sources said. Their choice is somewhat of a surprise, considering that many thought Kim would be sent to a low- or minimum-security federal camp.
