The 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards kicked off Tuesday night (October 4) with a reboot of the network’s former Rap exclusive music video show, ‘Rap City.’
Helmed by its longtime host Big Tigger, the special edition showing featured interviews with G Herbo, Rapsody, Remy Ma, and Rap Queen Lil Kim.
The latter, who made headlines for recently hitting the studio with Cardi B after deeming the ‘Bodak Yellow’ beauty the princess of Rap, took to the platform to continue showering praise on the GRAMMY winner.
Look inside to hear the sweet words imparted the way of Cardi.

Cardi may be embroiled in beef with fellow female rappers Akbar V, JT, Nicki Minaj, and others, but there’s one she can always count on to be in her corner: Lil Kim. While appearing on the latest edition of ‘Rap City,’ Kim doubled down on that fact.
“Cardi is like the love of my life, y’all don’t even know. We talk a lot. People have no idea,” she said (as seen in the video above). “She’s my little sister but she’s really my big little sister. It’s facts.”
And although she dodged the question about the due date of the B duet, the 29-year-old wasn’t the only rapstress getting praise from the Queen.
Trina, who was on hand at the award show to receive its ultimate honor – the ‘I Am Hip-Hop’ lifetime achievement – also received a shower of kind words from Kim.

Watch the full interview below.
Lil Shim is a self hating garden gnome! Always got all the smoke for black girls but refers to a Latina turd as the love of her life. Old ass has been flop ass b****.
I DM’d the Queen (Nicki) bout what this old ass clown said and she was like: “idgaf bout this bum ass washed up b*tch cuz these b*tches is my sonz” and tbh i was quite perplexed
Lmao! fr?
For sure dude!
She cant reply ya dusty ass
Why not Im rich, white, priveledged & her #1 b*tch
Send me $100k if you rich
If you believe everything i say then ill sell you the london bridge b*tch
I’m slowly losing respect for Lil’ Kim. Cardi B is basically benefiting off the ground work laid out by Female pioneers and ur kissing Cardi’s a$$ like this bird is music royalty.
Keep the same energy for Cardi, you have for Nicki. Trust and believe Cardi’s ego is out this MF world with all the accolades she has been given for basically being ratchet AF, not for any real music innovations.
We don’t even know if Cardi write her own sh** or if she can freestyle. F*ck outta here.
1st Fantasia begging Cardi for a collab, now Lil’ Kim.
You hos are TIRED!!!
Sad but true
My thing is….they will complain about how FEMALE rappers have to work 10 times harder, yet make someone with overnight success their QUEEN.
Their entire argument is weaken now, lol
Lil Kim comes off like she’s this strong tough chick but on the inside she is weak af…Cardi B should be praising HER, not the other way around and anyway the only reason why she is saying all of this is bc she’s a nemesis of Nicki. I’m not a fan of ANY of these high school acting heauxs but I see the real and I see the fake…and when did she start sounding like an Asian meerkat? Bish did so much surgeries to alter her appearance it’s now affecting her voice…now she’s beginning to sound like Cardi B..Lil Kim stop it! And let’s be real Cardi B’s style is a knock off of BOTH Kim and Nicki. Kim know damn well she don’t care about jo Cardi B THAT much.
