With 2014’s arrival rendering her ‘forthcoming‘ ‘Hardcore 2K13’ EP irrelevant, Lil Kim finds herself career met with more despair this year, now that she has been slapped with a fresh lawsuit.
For last year, before the release of her latest release ‘Dead Girl Walking’, the former chart-regular released a promotional image fans had believed was an image of herself sporting ‘Zombie’ make-up.
Alas, her efforts to pull the wool over the world’s eyes came to no avail when Canadian artist Samantha Ravndahl revealed that the snap was not of Lil Kim at all, but was rather stolen by the Rapper after she uploaded it to Yishan Wong‘s ‘Reddit.‘
Now, after urging the MC to cut all ties with the image, Ravndahl has now filed a lawsuit demanding a minimum of $150,000.
Full story below…
TMZ reports:
“Lil’ Kim is 2-faced, according to an artist who claims Kim has jacked the punim she made famous … and she’s going after the rapper in a big way.
Canadian artist Samantha Ravndahl lashed out at Kim on social media websites in November for lifting her scary image off Reddit, then using it on the Lil’ Kim website and Instagram accounts to promote her music.
Ultimately, it looks like Kim blew off Samantha, so now the artist has lawyered up and fired off a letter to the rapper demanding Kim pull the image … or else.
The “or else” is suing Kim for $150K minimum.
And the lawyer’s letter points out a Lil’ irony. Kim once went on Hot 97 radio and complained Nicki Minaj stole her swag, adding, “If you are going to steal my swag, you gonna have to pay.”
What’s good for the Lil’ goose …”
Kim is yet to respond.
