Niatia Kirkland (aka Lil’ Mama) is a New York-based female rapper who caught the attention of hip hop audiences with her catchy “Lip Gloss” song.

However, her choreographed dance routines and outspoken attitude landed her a role as judge on the sixth season of the MTV show, America’s Best Dance Crew.
