Quick Quotes: Lil’ Mama On Invisible Beef With Nicki Minaj

qq1 Quick Quotes: Lil Mama On Invisible Beef With Nicki Minaj

Where’s the beef? Lil’ Mama tells XXL that although she never had any animosity towards Nicki Minaj the potential of a wig shifting situation unfolding is only comparable to the shit that went down between Biggie and Tupac. This is the state hip-hop in 2011.

There was never any animosity. She came to my show…the greeting was beautiful. It was like, “Hi beautiful, how are you?” you know what I mean. It wasn’t like “Hi,” and then the name-calling or screwed up face or anything negative. If someone has something negative to say about you or they don’t like you, they wouldn’t greet you and say, “Hello beautiful.”

If we decided to go at each other and then somebody ended up dead, everybody in hip-hop would be like, “Oh my God, it’s so sad what happened to them.” It’s just like what happened with Pac and Biggie. The same people that promote it and it’s sad.

Friday Fuckery: Review – “Scrawberry”

mama screenshot Friday Fuckery: Review   Scrawberry

Hot sex on a platter herself, Lil’ Mama, has unveiled her first new video in over three years for the single, “Scrawberry.” One assumes Lil’ Mama’s assault of the spelling and pronunciation of the word strawberry was inspired by Beyoncé’s “algeba” and Gucci Mane’s “scrimps and scrits.” Somewhere Akeelah is rightfully screaming, “N**as ain’t shit!”

“Scrawberry” on wax may be described as a tribute to MC Lyte, but Onika Maraj will be the one sleeping better at night because of its release.

Sit Your $5 Ass Down Before I Make Change: Lil’ Mama Is Smelling Herself

Most people would rather take maxi pad advice from Faizon Love than entertain words on anything style related from Lil’ Mama. But at the recent MTV Movie Awards she managed to for once not look like a tacky stud pretending to be a gaudy queen. Now thanks to the two compliments she got for her efforts she’s using those enhanced nostrils of hers to smell herself.

In an interview with VIBE.com, the girl best known for confusing Jay-Z on stage accused Nicki Minaj of trying to snatch her wig style.

On Onika jacking her cut:

But my cut is blunt and futuristic and Nicki Minaj started wearing that bob on her head after she came to my show, so at the end of the day I know what I do and I know what I possess and I know who I am. I’m a trendsetter. The biggest form of flattery is imitation so I’m flattered. I understand the universal law. I’m not confused, I don’t feel like a follower. I started so many things that new artists are doing now anyway –my style, the way I’m aggressive on a track, the way I come through, the way my beat bangs. There are so many things that were borrowed, that I influenced that’s happening in music right, so I’m far from discouraged.

So the 1980s and 1990s never existed?

I’m guessing that a bedazzled plastic jheri curl cap with her initials will have something to do with the outfit she rocks to the 2011 EBT Awards.
