Since her record label will not give her a release date for her long-awaited fifth album, Lil' Kim has taken matters into her own hands. Last summer, Nicki Minaj caught worldwide attention and she rubbed Lil' Kim the wrong way. Before the end of the summer, Kim was dissing Nicki Minaj every chance she got.
Nicki Minaj initially said she would not give Lil' Kim a response because she had so much respect for her. But, Lil' Kim continued to push her until Nicki broke. In October 2010, Lil' Kim said she was done dissing Nicki Minaj. Almost a month later, Nicki responded with "Roman's Revenge."
After releasing her first diss record, Nicki Minaj went back to focusing on Pink Friday. Lil' Kim recorded another diss record, this one called "Black Friday." The song was so popular that she felt the need to film a video for the song and make it a part of an entire mixtape. Lil' Kim has been working on a new diss mixtape, Black Friday, and she is creeping up on the release date.
Initially, the mixtape was to be free, but Lil' Kim is now charging $9.99 for the tape. She wants to become the next rapper to make a million off a mixtape. Before her Young Money days, Nicki Minaj's Beam Me Up Scotty mixtape made her a million dollars. Given her legendary status, Lil' Kim hopes Black Friday can do the same thing for her.
