You know, just because someone does something similar does not mean they snaked the idea from someone. Hell, as a kid, I always drew all kinds of things, came up with several concepts I had never seen before- and sure as you know it, eventually I see people coming out with things extremely alike to something that originated in my head. Now if I were to publish something I created a long time ago about a year after someone else published a similar idea, I would be called a copycat. But really, it's horseshit. Just because Minaj started to Crayola her world a little bit, or because she took a promo photo in the same position as LK (or a shit ton of other female artists have) does NOT mean she was jacking K's "style." That's just conjecture, at the most. Not saying I lean toward Minaj, but did anyone read about her growing up?? She has more means of origin in all the "style" she portrays in her work.

I don't even think the two should be compared- they're two entirely different elements.

Regardless of who started what, all this "dissing" bullshit shouldn't have been continued with. They've both got THEIR OWN things going on, and regardless of who started what, the best move would have been to just keep kicking ass in their career. But, nope! Gotta start shit, don't we?
