It's been a while since I heard something I liked from 2007 breakthrough hip-hop artist Lil Mama. I was getting worried Lil Mama was gearing up to be a one-hit-wonder after the uber-success of "Lip Gloss."On her newest video for the track "L.I.F.E." off her debut full-length VYP: Voice Of The Young People Lil Mama pulls a 180, singing about the hard knock life. She sings with the force of a min...
I swore to myself I wouldn't post anymore videos today, but this one is worth breaking my vow for. If you don't already know, I Love Lil' Mama for her fresh enthusiasm, her tight flow and her youthful lyrics. After years of misogynistic rap, I find her so refreshing. But her freestyles are something else. She proves she's a force to be reckoned with and as a newcomer to the game, she's only...
Next on the new video tip: Lil Mama has a bumpin new ride in her new video for "G-Slide/Bus Tour." This song just jumped into my #1 slot for the week, I LOVE this tune. It starts out like Sesame Street would with Lil Mama as the celebrity guest, but then it kicks into a sexy beat that made me jump out of my office chair and shake my booty! I've always been fond of this combination of kid-fri...
Lip Gloss is the song I have had stuck in my head since hearing it a couple weeks ago....i am embarrassed to say. Communicating the inability to stop hearing this song in my head to friend Erik, my own personal Joseph Campbell wrote: "In myth as a hero(ine) sets forth on her travels she is usually given an item from a mentor to aid in her quest. The 'classic' item is the enchanted sword, the l...
Lil Mama's video Lipgloss gives me hope that hip hop may be changing for the better. I am not that happy with the state of the state of hip hop now in exception for the conscious hip hop that I do enjoy such as AD, the voice, The Roots, Mos Def and I know many others that I am not familiar with. I miss Heavy D, A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul so hopefully the future generations will truly l...
so I might be just discovering this hot young thang, but its about damn time a black female rapper steps up to the game-I'm tired of all these would be white girl dork rappers and their non sensical lyrics-lil mama is bringing something really good to the table-so good she doesn't even need music (re: lipgloss) I need to know more about her-I love it! now if you'll excuse me, I'm about to buy m...

Lil Mama doesn't wow me with this new joint, but it's not bad. The track is kinda clever, and honestly I'd rather hear her music than her critiques on America's Best Dance Crew - I STILL don't understand why she's on there. Alas, I digress. Shake is a track from her as-yet-untitled next album, so let me know what you think about it. Maybe there's more to Lil' Mama than her lip gloss...Shake - Lil
I’m not too sure how accurate this is or where it came from orginally… but peep imflashy’s take on what Lil Mama has said thus far.“I did not mean any disrespect towards Jay-Z or Alicia Keys,” the statement reads. “I admire them and look up to them as role models. ‘Empire State of Mind’ had [...]
