Lil Kim's long-delayed Hard Core mixtape has finally been released, and you can download it for free right here. Though this mixtape (rather confusingly) shares a name with Kim's 1996 debut album, this is a collection of 12 new songs, including previously released singles "Haterz" and her Nicki Minaj diss track "Identity Theft."

Among Hard Core's guest rappers are Yo Gotti, Jadakiss, TLZ, Young Bonds, Cassidy, French Montana, and B. Ford.

As reported back in August, Hard Core's Sept. 11 release date came after several delays that greatly frustrated Lil Kim's fans. Originally announced back in July 2013, the mixtape was set for release last Halloween, but was then pushed to Black Friday instead, which was also missed.

Lil Kim's last mixtape was 2011's Black Friday, which was released on Valentine's Day, suggesting that she doesn't have a great track record of releasing things on their intended dates. Her most recent studio album was The Naked Truth, released all the way back in 2005.

Lil Kim has said that she will set out on a tour in support of Hard Core, though no dates have yet been announced.
