Lil Kim announced her first studio album in 14 years was on its way last month. However, according to a recent Instagram Story, the release date has been pushed back.
The project — titled 9 — was originally expected to arrive on May 17, but Kim says due to label issues, there’s no telling when it will drop.
“EOne has pushed back the date of my album y’all if you have an issue take it up with them,” Kim wrote. “This has nothing to do with me. I am beyond upset with this and couldn’t wait to show you all what I’ve been working on.”
Kim added she was also frustrated with Spotify.
“Also Spotify is hating on me,” she continued. “I can’t understand why after all of the favors I’ve done for them. Direct all of your energy towards them too.”
Kim’s last official studio album, The Naked Truth, hit the shelves in 2005, although she’s continued to drop mixtapes over the last 10 years. Her most recent single, “Go Awff,” made the rounds in February.
While fans await 9, Kim is whetting their appetites with another new single titled “No Auto Blanco.”

Who’s still signing to labels un 2019. Go indie and drop on streaming sites yourself
Eone is an indie label. No body knows this album is coming out. They probably just making sure it doesn’t flop
Yes ppl still are signing to labels and lil Kim still has alot of fans who will pay to see her. But you peasant need to stop hating and do your researcch
This is so corny. It’s obviously a coordinated media grab. They told her post about how you’re angry about us not releasing your album nobody wants and people will want it becuase they think they can’t have it.
Lil Kim hasn’t been relevant since 6 noses ago
Fk Spotify
I am furious about this delay. I been fiendin’ for this project to drop.
Push it back indefinitely. No one wants it.
The ones not checking, are the ones posting up. Does that even make sense?
