Lil Kim Says Her Book Is Outselling The Bible

Lil Kim claims that pre-orders for her upcoming book are outselling the Bible.

“My book has been done. When we post our presales, we be surpassing the Bible. And that’s crazy. And the thing is, it’s like the Bible, like I don’t take that lightly. I already know that,” she said on Instagram Live.

The Bible sells approximately 5 million copies a year.

“But it’s like some crazy sh-t going on behind the scenes,” she said. “You have to be really careful when you deal with these book companies because they try to, like, literally take advantage of you.”

Lil Kim’s The Queen Bee is dropping September 23, 2025.

Hackette Books describes the memoir as “A true page-turner from start to finish, The Queen Bee is every bit as fierce, empowering, and badass as the woman at the heart of this story—and firmly cements her legacy as a true feminist icon.”

Fans however feel she’s inflating the numbers. “Still lying about stats, poor kimmy blanco,” someone commented. “Same woman who sold 1k copies for her last album?” another person wrote.
