    she needs to grow the hell up. what you expect? you have been too lazy with your music and when another rap artist comes and takes the spot for being very talented, you suddenly want to make music again? you need to stay on top of your game every single day cuz if not, people won’t be checking for you no more.

  2. Daniel Lewins December 16, 2010

    Kim Needs To GET OVER IT!! Seriously! Who cares what she thinks. Minaj is on everything now!!!

    UGH YEA LIL KIM STRAIGHT PLASTIC!!!

  11. True Blue December 16, 2010

    I can’t watch the video because my phone doesn’t support Flash, but all I have to say is that Kim is pathetic, to only try and make herself relevant when someone she is threatened is. And since I won’t have time to reply to anyone, I’ll say in advance that I am NOT a fan of either women, so I’m being objective with my opinion.

  12. JJFAN1814 December 16, 2010

    SHE LOOKS LIKE LATOYA JACKSON

  13. True Blue December 16, 2010

    * When someone she is threatened by is.

  14. Kio December 16, 2010

    This is why I start to hate R&B and Hip-Hop everyday!!! Instead of Lil Kim stroking her big Ego c***, and understand that she is a 40 year old woman hating in a young chick like Nicki!!! Nicki has a nice ass body to look at but her talent is s***!! Back in the day, Female rapper beefed with each other, but they didn’t have twitter, or the other lame social media blogs or other s*** to keep you abuzz with who hated each other!! I have lost all respect for this s***!!!! What happen to the days where, even if you didn’t like a particular artist you respected their talents!!!! Yeah 300k is good now, but when Mariah came out in 1990 if she would have been considered a flop, but the again the main ingredient is “TALENT”!! I hate to say it but back in the day, you knew about a album six month before it dropped, plus you had regular TV promo’s as well as magazine ads telling you about the album, plus these artist are so f****** lazy, they want to promote an album almost a year down the road, why they need to do is promote the album at least 3 months in advance!! Young kids don’t know s*** about music!! Sorry!!!

  15. jewelz December 16, 2010

    she’s making a fool of herself. all this energy focused on nicki, when she could of put out an album. doesn’t she realize she’s just promoting nicki more?

  16. VLB December 16, 2010

  21. A December 16, 2010

  28. lolsmileyface December 16, 2010

    Kim, kim, kim.
    Didn’t you hear “It’s Friday the 13th and guess whose playing Freddy!?!?”

    Watch out, you may get more than what you bargained for.

    RAH RAH LIKE A DUNGEON DRAGON.
    If Nicki would make that a single f/Eminem, whooooo that would slay.
    Kim would really sit down then

  30. Likecaesar December 16, 2010

    Lol @ folks thinkin Romans revenge was hot cuz of nicki. Her verses were…cute but she ain’t really say much lyrically. It was hype but Em killed the track and the beat was dope. Honestly I think lil Kim is a far better rapper point blank. Too bad her hype fizzed out. With that said nicki will bring back the televised female rap category at the Grammys so that’s hot for hip hop. She can f*** wit Kim only when she get 5 mics tho

  31. OrlandoBloomingdales December 16, 2010

    “When I see you name on Billboard, that’s when I’ll respond! Until then, GOOD-BYE!’

    -Nicki said it best.

  36. Facts Officer December 16, 2010

    Again how does being the Most Trended Rapper on twitter with no album in 5 years and one one of the BIGGEST stories on this site in 2010 make Lil Kim irrelevant?

    Someone answer that O_o

    I’ll Wait…

    Queen BEE!!!

    The Queen of Hip-Hop!

  37. Dane December 16, 2010

    I wish people will stop acting like this s*** don’t go on in HIP HOP…..

  38. Kee December 16, 2010

    both fans are delusional….y’all keep coming up with the same arguments….i’m sooo tired of hearing Nicki is a swagger jacker, everything she is doing KIM been did(okay..we established that move on)….with KIM(she is the queen, she got 5mics, she made history)..blah blah blah…Nicki is doing her thing, SO LET HER BE, some rappers n singers are not 4 everybody(and maybe her music isn’t 4u…so who are u 2 call her lame, talentless..etc..cuz u don’t like her music)…NEWS FLASH…If u don’t like her don’t listen to her..simple! The same thing goes 4people speaking bad about KIM…Damn..if u going speak TALK about how she left fans HIGH n DRY 4 5yrs. Everyone keeps saying Nicki is a gimmick and fad..talk about How Lil Kim entire career is based off gimmicks(s**, barbie) n drama(talking sideways about Ms. Wallace, Sleeping with Biggie when he was married to Faith, Domestic Violence(Biggie Beating her ass)..)..talk about how most of her rhymes are recycled BIGGIE lyrics(NOT A HUGE FAN OF EITHER ONE, BUT IF YOU GOING TO GO HARD..GO HARD)

    I’m so tired of this back and forth about 2 women who could give 2 shits about YOU n YOUR FEELINGS OR OPINIONS….

  39. NieObie December 16, 2010

    Lil Kim is STLL the #1 Female Rapper of all time baby! Y’all heard!? Nicki Minaj is just the new latest female rapper to come into the music industry. She ain’t got 1 track that will compare to the rhymes & beats Lil’ Kim has from all her OLD S***! Nicki calm down Boo Boo your too new to be beefin’ with ESTABLISHED ARTISTS! Come out with consecutive albums that are successful and then come talk s***. Humility will get you a long way. Your a newbie who’s on everyones s*** right now but your time will run out!. Remember Pharell? What happened to his music?

    Kim keep killing it baby- Love you!

    #1 Queen Bee baby!

  40. Say What December 16, 2010

    Now I could generally give a damn about “hating and bashing” on blog sites. Just like to check them every now then because they can become addictive. But I must speak a peace about this blame game with this beef. I’m no more of a Nicki fan, than I am a Kim fan… But why does it seem like Kim is being childish or needs to let it go? Clearly both women have a general beef and both wrote songs about it. Same as most of you would if you were in there positions. The MTV special with Nicki, which I wouldnt be surprised if she had some control over what footage was shown on tv, sat there in the studio recording “dungeon dragon” of all songs on her album, clearly sending shots and laughing about it while she was doing it. Then go on Chelsea Lately and of all things or verses to repeat where she being “The Angry Gay Roman” she quotes yet another line from “Dungeon Dragon” which was another clear shot at Kim. Am I the only one who sees both ladies are mutually keeping this going?

  41. AC December 16, 2010

    Kim hang it up.

  42. whayyouknowaboutthat December 17, 2010

    this is a hot mess lil kim needs to sit down some where and let nicki minaj do her thing!!

  43. Money Make Me C**!!! December 17, 2010

    Nobody is checking for Lil Kim….Yes she was a bad ass b***h in the 90’s but if you REALLY look and listen to the music out today….you can see that music is for the younger generation…The kids (teenagers) will not pay attention to anything she does (check how many followers she has)….far as the videos goes…she will only look desperate, old and petty as hell…I really don’t see any good coming from this…the video is not a good look…

    ~~~NO SHADE!~~~

  44. Trucie December 17, 2010

    Sad!

  45. NICK December 17, 2010

    WHEN I SEE U ON BILLBOARDS, THEN I WILL RESPOND!- YES NICKI YES !!!!

  46. HAHA SLOW DOWN December 17, 2010

    Nicki and the rest of the WACK ASS artists in the game got all of you brain washed…Tupac can come back from the dead and Drake can have you all thinking he is wack…

    You all need to wake up..so what Kim is 35 years old..she is making MONEY and STILL MAKING MUSIC…I am NOT mad at that…as we all sit here in our house wishing we had the money and connects like Lil Kim and all the other artist we COMMON folk think are WASHED UP…WACK UP…like NAS said HIP HOP is DEAD thanks to these wack ass artists turning this music genre into HIP-POP…

    Nicki might be on the road to selling records, but of course she would when you have a marketing and promo team behind you…do you really think Nicki will be around…she is just here for the time being and will be gone by February…TRUST…Nicki is a FLOP when you but her up against the GREATS like LIL KIM, QUEEN LATIFAH, LAURYN HILL, MC LYTE, EVE….these women will bne dead and gone and still making money and making the news…

  50. Alex December 17, 2010

    Kim is irrelevant but every blog every tweet and every station is talking about her! You people Kill Me!

  51. TIMMI December 17, 2010

    This beef will be old news come 2011 so why Kim is still putting forward efforts into it I do not know. It has become boring.

    Whether you like Kim, Nicki, or both, it is FACT that Kim has become irrelevant in the music scene for many reasons. It’s a shame that her first proper music effort in a while is a diss track about Nicki. She could redeem herself better doing otherwise because Nicki is achieving a lot of success and has a lot of fans around right now. It would favour Kim more to squash the beef, be the bigger person and place her effort into quality music. Who knows, the crown she clearly feels has been stolen might make it’s way back to her that way.

  52. Diane December 17, 2010

    @HAHA SLOW DOWN, A marketing team doesn’t guarantee album sales. Just look at NeYo, Diddy Last Train to Paris, Nelly, etc. Let’s face it, Pink Friday is a solid album. If it were not, no one would buy it regardless of how much they like the artist. Pink Friday may not be your taste, but many people enjoy it, including me.

    I like Kim too. But, I was never a lover of Kim’s music, outside of LaBella Mafia. However, Kim has presence and I always checked for her and enjoy watching her videos. If she were performing on t.v., i watched. I voted and watched every episode of DWTS. I also watched Countdown to Lockdown. Kim is just cool people.

    I don’t have to hate Nicki to like Kim and vice versa. But Kim’s action is showing just how much Roman’s Revenge effed her up! Of course, it put Kim back on her grind. But when your grind is simply to go against someone who is liked by many, it may backfire. Kim is showing jealousy and coming across as bitter.

    Roman’s Revenge won because it’s obvious that the song got to the heart of Kim’s soul. Black Friday is not as lethal to Nicki’s soul.

  53. Marino December 17, 2010

    Let me say one thing only reason Lil Kim was a top trending topic on Twitter is bcuz the week Nickis album hit #2 on the billboards was the same week She was nominated for a Grammy. So the trending topics was #lilkimmustfeellike…..(Woody when Andy got Buzz) (Amber Rose in a hair whipping contest)….search it! Doesn’t make her relevent just a joke.

  54. sugar honey ice tea December 17, 2010

    this is a snippet i got from mtv talking about the beef … mtv the most powerful name in music

    “It’s a classic example of the young prodigy vs. the seasoned veteran who’s desperately trying to stay in the game. Kind of like the plot of “The Natural,” right? Nicki’s debut this year was huge — could you ask for more from your first few singles? — and Lil Kim was not psyched about that. After the former-Biggie protégé ran her mouth in an interview, Minaj struck back with a few lines in her cut “Roman’s Revenge.” This caused Lil Kim to kick it up to the next level, with a full on dis track called “Black Friday,” in which she lashed out at Drake, Lil Wayne, Diddy, and Foxy Brown. Yikes! You know Kim, you’re 35 years old. Maybe it’s time to grow up.
    Winner: Nicki Minaj”

    even MTV knows the deal lol

  55. Reez_md December 17, 2010

    KIM > NICKI #THATISALL

  60. ALi January 4, 2011

    B**** with the lil Kim gravatar…. You know that’s a picture of ya matha! And for the other hater that said lil Kim was pathetic, Ya imaginary gilfriend Licki Minaj is even more Pathetic, when in history did they ever book a self proclaimed Star for a pre-award show appetizer??? Where they do that at…. Oh apparently in Barbie land! U an Air-Head B**** Scarecrow!

  61. ALi January 4, 2011

    Bottom line Kim is the only female rapper that can bang with nigguz from the street like mobb deep….. Unlike nikki her bubble gum style shine when she on with studio thugz like Kanye, diddy, Ric should I continue….. Nicki a smart girl, but I thought she was smart enough to not jump in the shark tank at the aquarium…….
