The rapper Nicki Minaj known as a “sore loser”

Nicki Minaj has been a cultural chief because the mid-2000s and, for ten years, had complete dominance of the feminine hip-hop house. With no competitors and unparalleled lyricism, Minaj reached heights different MCs may have solely dreamed of. Nevertheless, plenty of that preliminary success went to Nicki’s head.

The beef between Nicki Minaj and Lil’ Kim is Minaj’s oldest one, and it started shortly after she gained industrial success. Initially, it was primarily attributable to Minaj’s aesthetic and lack of respect for the ‘Crush On You’ lyricist.

When she first entered the mainstream, Minaj (actual identify Onika Maraj) was identified primarily for her eccentric fashion and brightly colored wigs. With Lil’ Kim sporting related hair within the Nineties, many accused Minaj of stealing and ripping off Lil Kim’s fashion, and this led to a way of competitors and uncomfortable rigidity between the 2.

Lil’ Kim (actual identify Kimberley Jones) would usually get requested about Minaj in interviews, and the ‘Starships’ artist thought-about Kim, as an older artist, to be comparatively condescending and unsupportive of her as the brand new face of feminine rap.

That stated, in an interview with Angie Martinez following the discharge of her debut album, Pink Friday, in 2010, Minaj determined to handle Jones straight, stating, “She just really jumped out of the window, and you got to be careful when you pick fights. That’s what I learned in this business. You just never know. I think people get me mistaken with like a real Barbie; they forget where I’m from. If I have to revert back, I can and I will.”

Responding to Lil Kim’s numerous feedback about her, Minaj continued, “Don’t play with me… I respect you and love you. I’ve said it in every interview, time and time again. And if that’s not good enough for you mama, then it’s something deep-rooted in you. Something is bothering you inside — that’s your insecurity bothering you.”

Highlighting Lil’ Kim’s tendency to bully feminine artists, Minaj concluded, “She picked a fight with Foxy, then she picked a fight with Eve, then it was Miss Wallace, now it’s Nicki Minaj. You know what scares people? Success! When you don’t make moves and you don’t climb up the ladder, everybody loves you because you’re not competition. I feel like, you are going to go down in history now as a sore loser, as opposed to going down in history as the Queen.”
