Lil Kim Claims Her 'The Queen Bee' Memoir Presale Numbers Will Outsell The Bible

Lil Kim seemed to have Twitter/X in stitches as she recently claimed that her upcoming memoir's presale numbers will outsell the highest-selling book of all time - The Bible.

The rap titan seemed to have developed a penchant for claiming huge things, including her alleged abusive relationship with the late Notorious B.I.G and her other "high-profile relationships."

"When we post our pre-sales, we be surpassing the Bible," Lil Kim claimed. "And that's crazy. And the thing is, it's like the Bible, like I don't take that lightly. I already know that. But it's like some crazy sh*t going on behind the scenes."

To date, the Bible is the highest-selling book of all time. In order for Lil Kim to best the sales of the said sacred text, she would have to have at least five million people purchase her memoir in presales to prove her claims.

Notably, the latest high-profile memoir released was Britney Spears' "The Woman In Me," which has sold only 1.1 million copies including pre-sales.

Elsewhere in the Instagram Live, Lil Kim opened up about the struggles she had to face while publishing her upcoming memoir.

"You have to be really careful when you deal with these book companies because they try to, like, literally take advantage of you," she continued.

Lil Kim's memoir "The Queen In Me" is expected to be released in March 2024. She announced the arrival of the memoir in 2021 but she only finished it last Summer 2023.

"It's been a long journey beehive, edits are finally done [raised hands emoji]. Thank you to my bestie/soulmate @themarcjacobs for doing my forward," she announced on Twitter/X of the book's completion.

Lil' Kim Claims She Was Abused By Notorious BIG

According to HipHopDX, Lil Kim's memoir "The Queen In Me" will explore her relationship with The Notorious BIG which she claims to be marred with domestic abuse.

"It's not wrong with [Jermaine Dupri] tellin' the story; it's a part of history. It happened. The story is not exactly how he said it, but it's very close to the truth," she claimed in an interview with Hot 97. "We did have a very violent relationship. I hate that, for a while, that was all I attracted: violent [men]. It is what it is. He was everything. You know how it is when you're in the industry: the guys can do whatever they want, but you can't do shit. You can't do nothing."
