Lil' Kim Sets Halloween Release for 'Hard Core 2K13’ Mixtape

Lil’ Kim has a few tricks and treats for her fans this Halloween. The Queen Bee has announced an October 31 release for her mixtape Hard Core 2K13.

“Get ready!!!! 10/31/13 #HARDCOREMIXTAPE #Halloween #DontGetScaredNow #HardCoreMixtapeApp Exec producer @bigfendi,” tweeted Kim.

The Brooklyn rapper returns to her roots on the street-minded project, which borrows its title from her 1996 debut Hard Core.

While there will be some guest appearances, she has kept them to a minimum to reflect the “Hard Core Kim.” Big Mike will host, while Big Fendi serves as executive producer.

Additionally, Kim has been working on her fifth album and her autobiography Price of Loyalty, which is scheduled to hit shelves in early 2014.
