Former associate of Lil' Kim, Jadakiss, has become the latest person to speak on her feud with Nicki Minaj. Jadakiss was entering the game around the same time as Lil' Kim. Due to their affiliation, the two have worked together multiple times. Lil' Kim collaborated with The L.O.X. on "Money, Power, Respect."
Over the years, Jadakiss has become good friends with Lil' Kim and it was expected of him to side with her. But, Jadakiss has been watching the entire situation unfold. From what he sees, there is a jealous Lil' Kim who is angling to knock Nicki Minaj off her game. Jadakiss does not stand for this.
Recently, Lil' Kim said she has been upset with Nicki Minaj for over a year. In Jada's opinion, he thinks her beef with Nicki is pointless. If she had an issue with Minaj a year ago, she should have said something then. Jadakiss, like the rest of the hip hop world, feels Lil' Kim waited to diss her while she was hot.
Jadakiss went on to say he does not fault Lil' Kim for speaking her mind about the new sensation. He just feels she should have said something when she was first upset with Nicki Minaj. In his mind, he feels there is no need for her to be upset now. Nicki Minaj has been copying Lil' Kim's style ever since her first mixtape and nothing was said by Lil' Kim. But, now Nicki Minaj is hot and Kim is upset all of a sudden. He feels she is trying to diss Nicki Minaj for the attention, but he still credits her as the Queen Bee.
While Lil' Kim feels Nicki Minaj has not paid homage, Jadakiss says she does not have to. Instead, Jada feels her style does it for her. Everything from her rhymes to her outfits screams Lil' Kim. He said the feud should be great for record sales, which is great for hip hop. Jadakiss does not support random beef, but he said it would be a great way for Lil' Kim to land a comeback. If Lil' Kim loses the feud, it would be a great way for the newcomer, Nicki Minaj to come into the game. Few rappers enter the game defeating a legend.
