JuNK FOOD: The Minaj à Trois

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, well let's start counting all the things that little Kim could potentially say about this one. In the photo: Young Money's Nicki Minaj with D. Roc - former Junior Mafia manager - and the same dude that Lil' Kim did a year for in prision. In my opinion, Kim doing a year for not snitiching is what solidifies her claim to the thrown as the QUEEN. Eat your hearts out, and don't forget that I am FOX 5, Fox Boogie to the max. All in all, real recognizes real, and you can't argue with that.

When it all boils down, you have to ask - where's the loyalty? You can't knock the homey for getting his paper, especially when you have a chance to jump on a bandwagon like Nicki's (no pun intended). Seriously, how many people would turn that down? I know a few, but I guess he's not one. I don't know the dude personally, but what I do know is that this is kind of a slap in the face to Kim. Right now is pivotal, and sides must be chosen. Did he choose his? SAD.

I for one don't even co-sign the beef between Kim and Nicki, but I quote what Nicki said at the BET Awards, "I'm doing this for all women"; as she should. And like Remy said, "There can be more than one." - female rapper on top of her game that is. They don't always have to beef. So I'm riding with ending the BS, and letting them both get their shine, and rhyme on. As we all should.

Queen Bee of the ROC

Word on the wave is that Hov has signed rapper Lil' Kim to Roc Nation - mixed emotions. On the one hand, it's Kim and she's a sure draw, even if off of personality alone; so in that case, it does seem like a good idea. I question whether the idea was contemplated thoroughly and before I get into the hoopla, I wanna know will she ever come out with an album. Shame is that in today's time people sign deals, and really become tax write-offs. By that I mean the music never gets put out. You get some shows and some cameos with the label chain, but never anything to hang your hat on. Need we really go through the list of people whom fall in this category? [Sidebar: Always have facts to back up your claim, I have mine.] But as I was saying, is this just a move to stir up the whole Lil' Kim vs. Nicki Minaj scenario before someone could capitalize off of Foxy Brown vs. Nicki? Hmmm...I wonder.

Next issue - Does Kim still have it? I'm not knocking her, but times have changed. With Emmo-rap taking over, the people want substance; not just entertainment. To think, the top 3 rappers at the moment have no showmanship (Ross, Jay-Z and Drake), but what do they have is LYRICS. Need I repeat, LYRICS!. Could this be a chance for Jay-Z to pick up his pen again? Let's not say he created Foxy - I'll argue that. Shout out to Inga.

As you can see, I'm torn on the subject; still and all congrats to Kim and Roc Nation, rock on! Let's just see if this project gets off the ground.

I would love to hear your thoughts. So leave a comment!

eyeJust Had To: Lil' Kim & Cyndi Lauper Perform

Yes, Lil' Kim and Cyndi Lauper performing together! They did a mix to their song(s) 'Time After Time and Lighters Up'. When I saw this I was scared for Lil' Kim to know that she would be singing. However, I don't think she did a bad job lol. She did sound very nervous and out of breath at times, but I think she did an okay job considering...

What do you think?
