Say what you will about Rap Icon Lil Kim, but if the last two years have proved anything it is that both she and her music are just as provocative as they were back when she debuted almost twenty years ago.

For, after using the hype surrounding Nicki Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday’ to promote her controversial ‘Black Friday’ mix tape  and reestablish her status as major player in contemporary Hip Hop, she has in many ways succeeded in forcing the world to pay careful attention to both she and her oft enjoyable material.

Now, after coming under fire for delaying ‘Friday’s  long awaited follow up, there are  many who suspect the Rapper has set the project’s release date to coincide with the  release of Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded‘ in a bid to further capitalize on their long running feud.
