05.02.2006 Hoe Sit Down: Khia

I wrote an entry a while back about a run in I had with Khia at a dent-in-the-wall club. Yes I Freshalina Lee Simmons had the the honor and privilege to meet the Thug Misses herself during Superbowl weekend in the trap. Standing next to her really made me feel fabulostic, I mean really fabulous. Anyway, Khia recently sat down with Vibe for an interview where she talks about her new album, her criminal past, (damn I love those mugshots) and becoming Queen of the South. Here are a few of my favorite excerpts:

Your mug shots were making the rounds a couple of years ago. How do you feel about your past?

Khia: That's why the album is called Gangstress, because I am a gangstress and I live to tell. Girls do some of the same things that guys do. Girls hustle, girls grind, steal, sell dope, rob, fight, pull out guns. I am not running from my past. That's why I am Thug Missus. I even used the mug shots as an album cover.

Tell me about your groupies. I bet you have stories!

Khia: You'd be surprised. I have a bigger white fan base than black. My fans are both male and female, who show me just the same amount of love.

What's next for Khia?

Khia: I am going for "Queen of the South". I feel like I have the females on lock, and I've been promoting "Queen of the South". My road people put that on my posters. I'm taking that seat next to T.I.

Hmm, what would Trina say about that?

Khia: Well I'd tell her I sold more records, and my fan base is bigger than yours, and I don't even have the big label behind me. So I am still holding the crown. And I am a natural beauty. I am the "Queen of the South"! I'm taking that throne.
