What's Hot

Uh-oh. Apparently a new feud is brewing, this time between Lil Kim and Azealia Banks. Banks recently claimed via Twitter that the elder rapper doesn’t write her own lyrics, instigating a potential fight between the two.

Banks recently worked with Lil Kim on her upcoming debut album Broke With Expensive Taste, which is expected out later this year. So you might think that the two are friends – or, at least, friendly. Apparently the session didn’t go so well. “Lil Kim got mad that I wrote a verse for her on a record I wanted her on,” Banks tweeted. “Everyone knows Lil Kim doesn’t write her own raps and I saw this as a faster more efficient way of getting the track done.” She added, “She then had her assistant write me some long ass offensive email about how Lil Kim writes her own raps and doesn’t need anyone’s help … All this extra shit is stupid. Keep closing your own doors ma.”

Lil Kim’s publicist CJ Carter responded to the claims, telling AllHipHop.com, “My client and Azealia have NEVER spoke to one another or met AT ALL…Kim was actually very flattered [by] Azealia’s public admiration for her, which is why it’s so hard to understand how someone who claims to be a true Lil Kim fan could flip the script so easily on someone who was supposedly their idol… It honestly seems that someone from Azealia’s team would rather have her fans buy into manufactured drama instead of buying music.”
.

Banks then responded to that, saying, “For the record: I didn’t make this a thing. Nor did anyone on my team. I never once made any statements about this.” Hmm. So Twitter doesn’t count as a statement? Regardless, we’re curious to see how this shakes out. We’d love to see Banks and Nicki Minaj team up to battle Lil Kim in some sort of rap war.
