Lil’ Kim still can’t let it go.



This is truly awful. Give up already. Nicki won. There was no coming back from Roman's Revenge.

This has to be one of the lamest rap “beefs” of all time.

Lil Kim claims that her new mixtape, Black Friday, which was released yesterday, sold 113,000 copies via PayPal in its first 28 hours. If true, that would be an all-time PayPal record. Here's what Kim tweeted about the situation:

"Thanks to you guys!! #lilkimblackfridaymixtape sold 113,000 copies in 28 hours which made me the #1 seller on paypal ever =) THANK U!"

The album is selling for $10 a copy. Kim's last album, The Naked Truth, sold just 109,000 copies total.

Nicki Minaj, who has a feud going with Kim, took to her Twitter to say that Kim's claims are not true.

"Bwaahhhhahhahahahahahahhahahhhaaahhhhhaaahahahahhhaha!!!!!!!! *lifeless* *leaves on stretcher* *cant go on. The devil is a liar."

To which Kim replied:

"#twitterbeef This is not beef. Real beef is when someone gets shot 5 minutes later. CHILD PLEASE!!! #toomanytwittergangstas #teamlil kim LEGO."

Nicki is not amused.

Lil Kim has some more words for Nicki.

Lil' Kim Addresses Alleged Mixtape Sales, Nicki Minaj's Reaction

Kim does not sound confident in her previous statement about the success of her latest mixtape

A few days ago Lil' Kim took to Twitter to announce that she not only sold 113,000 mixtapes in 28 hours, but broke PayPal records. Given the $10 price tag on a largely free medium, not to mention to current sales climate, many people doubted the legitimacy of those numbers.

Rap-Up.com caught up with Kim and asked her about those figures, the former Junior M.A.F.I.A. rapper did not back up her words.

"There was actually a representative at PayPal who basically didn’t really confirm or deny it, but also [said] that they’re very happy and proud of the success of Lil’ Kim," she said when asked of the authenticity of the sales figures. "I think numbers in other areas speak for themselves. I mean, why aren’t they questioning the Black Friday

Nicki Minaj Done With Collaborations For Now

Unless it's Britney…

Nicki Minaj has said she is done with collaborations with others for at least the next two years. The rapper has decided that it's time to stop guest appearing on other peoples' tracks until she's more established.

There is one exception…she would collaborate with Britney Spears. "I'm done with collabs. No more collabs for the next two years," she said. "Although - Britney's a snatch like me and she's cute. Yes. We might do something."

Nicki and Britney on the same track? Can you even imagine??

[Brandon]

I know it seems like basic math that Nicki + Britney = happy B, but I'm not sure how I feel about this. I like that Britney has built her career on her own and didn't need to do collabs. And the one she's most known for was with Madonna. How can you top that? A collab with Nicki would obviously be better than her outing with the Ying Yang Twins, but still, if these two are gonna come together they better be on some Telephone shit. I'm going to need to be able to pussy pop into 2012 with this track.

[Burke]

Honestly, I thought "Me Against The Music" was a weak song. I was expecting greatness when I heard Britney and Madonna were collaborating, but I just didn't like it.

You know Nicki's collab with Britney would blow Woohoo out the water. It's always nice to be able to score another one for Britney over Christina.

I'll never badmouth this era Lil’ Kim:



EDIT: "Queen Bitch" would actually have been a more appropriate Lil' Kim song for Trish Stratus to use as her entrance theme. Time To Rock & Roll was great though.

[Tiffany]

still my jam.

honestly, i like both. i may not agree with kim's actions now, but she has a point. when nicki's kens & barbies try to send for kim's legacy, it's a wrap. kim's flow shits all over nicki's any day, sry!

I’m still not comfortable with being a “Ken” or a “Barb” actually, but what can you do?

I’m still hoping the whole thing will motivate Kim to step her game up to her 1996-2003 level again. That Lil’ Kim would have responded to Roman’s Revenge and completely destroyed Nicki. I know she’s better than the crap that she’s been releasing lately.

[Tiffany]

yeah, she should be working on her own shit instead of focusing her energy and time on nicki. the black friday mixtape isn't bad, just too nicki-oriented. not worth it, imo. we know who the queen B is, kim has nothing to prove. on the flipside tho, kim is obv taking advantage of the hype/feud, so it's whatev. do ya thang, gurl.

90% of these hip-hop "feuds" are manufactured to create a buzz anyway. I wouldn't be surprsied if they end up on a song together before the end of the year.

[Tiffany]

i'm sure they'll hug it out on this year's BET awards
