Growing up between Brooklyn's rough East New York section and Harlem, Lil Mama, one of eight brothers and sisters, the rapper born Niatia Kirkland started to express herself artistically as a little girl through poetry and dance. When she was just 10-years-old, Lil Mama decided to try and put a rhythm behind her poems. While Lil Mama's musical career was starting to fall into place, her personal life took a turn for the worse. In 2003, her mother was diagnosed with colon cancer. As she had always done in the past, Mama came to terms with her emotions through her music. She later teamed up with Ali Samii (former manager of rap star DMX) of Xtra Mile Productions and headed out to Atlanta where she got the chance to record with Nappy Roots' producer James Groove. Together they recorded seven songs, including Lip Gloss, which would quickly find its way onto New York's home for hip-hop and R&B, Hot 97.
