8 pressings came out in 1991, the album's first year, in 3 countries. Compare the label and catalog number on your copy, then the codes etched or stamped in the runout groove (the dead wax around the label): they are the surest sign of an early pressing.

12 vinyl pressings of I Like It are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1991 and 2000.
The earliest pressings are from 1991, in Italy, UK, Germany. One of them is Wicked & Wild Records WW003.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use WW003, WW003RX, PB 44741, PT 44742) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
