Dear Lil' Kim…

lil-kim-black-friday-cover-art.jpg

WTF?!

We've just received the cover art for Lil' Kim's latest album and if we're being honest, we're pretty horrified with it.

For one thing, we don't condone the exceedingly violent imagery on the cover. Was that necessary? There is nothing sexy about this Kill Bill thing you've got going on here, especially when the aggression seems to be directed at a very specific, very real person.

And can we ask a serious question: how come you feel the need to continually use Nicki Minaj for press?

Oh yeah, we're on to your game, girl! Black Friday? Hmm, where have we seen something similar to that. Oh yeah, the Billboard Top 100! Bitter much?!

If you are trying to make the point that you are better than her, do it with your music. Lay down tracks that are undeniably flawless and clever. This makes you look classless. This makes you look cruel and deplorable.

We will not clap for this.

Thoughts?

      classy



    2. 2

      is that supposed to be nicki's pink haired head? this is so awfully photoshopped and gruesome. lil kim who? more like big loser! nicki is on top! lil kim, lil mama = such lil losers

      this is no more violent than, say, a woman posing with two guns for a magazine or a woman dripping with bloody and hanging herself on stage….but you know that already right?



    4. 4

      That's just sad. Get over it, seriously. I'm not a fan of Lil' Kim at all.



    5. 5

      Disgusting…. clearly targeted at Nikki Minaj. Kim needs to grow up, get a life, etc. How much older is she than Nikki? 10 years? 15 years? She lost this one time fan



    6. 6

      I completely agree with Perez, Lil' Kim shouldn't promote a violent album cover and rivalry against another female rapper whom Nicki hasn't done anything to her. She pulled a Marilyn Manson cover right here. Kim should just quit her career and do something else, like work for Donald Trump.



    7. 7

      Could not agree with you more, Perez



    8. 8

      This is horrible. Coming from Lil' Kim especially. Hasn't she seen enough death in her lifetime? Death based on imaginary feuds and unfounded anger and hatred? Hasn't she learned?

      Whatever career she had left before this is gone forever, and for what? An easy jab at somebody who may or may not even be around in a year?

      So sad.



    9. 9

      Lil Kim's a loser.



    10. 10

      Eh. This might be tacky but if I was Kim I would be pretty annoyed that someone as talentless as Nikki Minaj passes for a successful female rapper these days.



    11. 11

      Well said, Perez! I completely agree with you on this one!



    12. 12

      This is ridiculous. I'm not a huge Minaj fan, but she needs to get over this shit.



    13. 13

      I'm willing to bet a lot of money Lil Kim doesn't give a shit what Perez Hilton thinks of her cover. Perez's unwarranted infatuation with the shithole horrid singer Minaj is just hilarious.
      Lil Kim is an entertainer and artist. The cover is an expression of her feelings. Shame on Perez for expecting or wanting her to hide those!
      I don't find anything sexy about gay men - so should I complain every time I see one of them on the cover of anything?



    14. 14

      Wouldn't using Nicki's cover, kind of, be copyright infringement?



    15. 15

      I love your comments about this…. you hit that spot on!



    16. 16

      LOVE IT .NM is really just a copy of others. her wild looks DO NOT add up to her music its bland and cheap. she just talks with half assed rhymes and falles back on this "barbie" image. Im on team kim unless NM can prover her aesthetic isn't a copy and if she can match her tunes to the fun look.



    17. 17

      The photoshopping is horrible. Obviously done by Mariah's retouchers. She just needs to stop talking trash and make some music if she thinks she's that amazing.

    18. nr178 says – reply to this


      18

      lil kim is just a hater and hasn't released yet that acting ghetto only makes you look stupid she's still at an immaturity level where she thinks it makes her look hard and like she has something to prove by being that way. time to become a woman.



    19. 19

      shes such an idiot



    20. 20

      This is sick. No wonder people think it's ok to kill people in broad daylight.



    21. 21

      3 Consecutive multi platinum selling CD's in a span of 7 years, EVEN AFTER THE FACT that Biggie Died. Your lil nikki nikki ain't got Nuthin on Kim…Oh ya, did i mention during a Ruff Ryders / Rock A Fella Era!??



    22. 22

      That's because she is classless. Have you ever seen this woman look anything other than cheap and tasteless? I can't for the life of me remember a time when I liked her. She's just a washed up, bitter, fame seeking old broad who has to use someone else's success to gain attention. She's pathetic and it really shows on this cover. Jealous much? Grow up and prove that you still have something to say with your music, not by stooping to such a low.



    23. 23

      Well when nothing else is going on with your life…



    24. 24

      Oh my gosh! I have to say she did an interview for Hot97 yesterday, and the only thing she did was imitate, mock and criticize Nicki! Fine Nicki took Jabs at her on her album, but Lil Kim has talked enough crap to warrant those insults. Whatever happened to sticks and stones??

      You can just feel the EXTREME JEALOUSY on Kims part!! Shes upset at Nicki, she mocked P. Diddy (or whatever the hell he is calling himself these days).

      Prison turned Kim into a MAJOR HATER!!! I actually feel bad for her.



    25. 25

      Re: PerezTheHypocrite – haha AGREED!



    26. 26

      kim-you're irrelevant to the rap game. hang it up. nicki is the queen. perez please stop reporting stories about this fame whoooooooooore.



    27. 27

      LIL KIM >>> MINAJ

      anyone who thinks different is either deaf, 15, or a fucking retard…



    28. 28

      Wow she's really gone for Nicki with this cover. The music is gonna have to be fucking amazing to live up to all the hype she's creating for herself.



    29. 29

      newsflash: this isn't real. try googling it.



    30. 30

      She's a no talent, classless ho. Go rot in hell, you're over Lil Kim.



    31. 31

      I agree with Perez! Promoting violence against a rival is deplorable. Clearly she feels threatened by Nikki Minaj and this is the only way she has to retaliate. If she feels she is so much better, her music will reflect that. Jealous, immature, disgusting, desperate, dispicable, the list goes on and on.



    32. 32

      everything perez said was SPOT ON! couldnt add anything better…



    33. 33

      Hip-Hop has done this since its inception… quit badmouthing Lil Kim! This is old-school Hip-Hop style war and and gives attention to both parties involved. Lil KIm has been around, paid her dues and is way beyond Nicki! Nicki is great but she has a Iong way to go before she reaches the status of Lil Kim! I love how Perez is so HOLY now… oh and by the way the site has increasingly become a YAWN! Lil Kim



    34. 34

      WOW….im not even sure what to say except that this makes me NOT want to buy her album…..thats not classy and really disrespectful



    35. 35

      Sick.



    36. 36

      Re: kimsucksass

      nicki minaj sucks ass. deal with it bitch.



    37. 37

      wtf is up with this woman. this is just wrong, ALL OF IT!..she is soooo photoshopped that, thats not even her..& yes exactly what you said perez shes totally using nicki for press. how lame is that. esp since she says shes been in the game for longer blahblah bullshit. grow up you old woman. damn!



    38. 38

      Wazzaaa with the right leg back there? Photoshop much?



    39. 39

      I think it's cute !
      It made me smile plus she's a rapper she shouldn't be feeling guilty or bad about bringin anyone down.
      You go Kim ! Milk that cow dry if you have to. We've got your back.



    40. 40

      After seeing Gaga in a meat outfit, this looks tame.



    41. 41

      Dude why can't she just be like the male rappers and rap through it? Sheesh this is disgusting I really hope this is some joke, but I'm worried it's real. Horrible and offensive to everyone who looks at it.



    42. 42

      You are way too sensitive. Seriously, how do you get by in this world?…

    43. rory! says – reply to this


      43

      She has just gone waaaaay past where she was before. Before she was pathetic now it's just like seriously she is just a sucky person to quote LC! The cover is solid gold shit…her hand isn't even holding the sword, it's just floating behind it! I'm tired of all this crap she keeps coming out with. Go away Lil Kim, no one wants you!



    44. 44

      Perez is whining like a little girl today.



    45. 45

      HIDEOUS!



    46. 46

      If I were Kim I wouldn't be very pleased either if someone so mainstream famous such as Nicki was blatantly dissing me in one of her songs. In my opinion they can't even be compared because Nicki has a huge mainstream following, where as Kim is a REAL raw rapper from the days when music was actually real. Nicki's success is allowing her to think she's better than Kim …. it's ridiculous! It's a sad state of affairs when success and relevancy compensates for real talent.



    47. 47

      fuck taking sides - they're both trash………………..

    48. KatMG says – reply to this


      48

      u-hooo its fake..! Once again Perez proves to be misinformed



    49. 49

      BARF!!!! she is out of control…so sad



    50. 50

      shes just a washed up bitch that needs to get a life and stop hating on Nicki cuz shes clearly way better than her



    51. 51

      Please….lil kim the only thing you will be remembered for is being felt up at the VMAs in '99. Find another way to get attention



    52. 52

      Little Kim has some major issues!



    53. 53

      LOL I LOVE IT. WHOGIVESAFUCK about it, there both so high on there horses that they can rap battle it out. Sooo silly! Let see all the claws come out, better yet, lets make reality t.v. and have them Jello wrestle. I know Perez has turned a new leaf but come on, it wasn't to long ago he was a nasty little twerp.



    54. 54

      Lil Kim is too old to doing some bullshit like this. her time has came and went and will never come back.



    55. 55

      Re: PerezTheHypocrite – first of all your a douche bag. second, no one gives a rats ass about ur horrible opinion. third, get a fuckin life. if you dont agree with what he writes on here dont fucking log onto the website. if he is such a hypocrite why the hell do u feel like you need to come on here and throw your two cents around? oh yea, thats right, your probably some pre pubescent pimply freak who cant get a girlfriend so you creep online. get an effin life loser.



    56. 56

      Re: Taffernoodles – TrueRe: Mr Glass – Exactly



    57. 57

      OMG everyone on here is retarded. THIS IS FAKE.



    58. 58

      Minaj swagger jacked Lil Kim big time. She stole her style, the way she raps … EVERYTHING. Kinda sad how people think Minaj is original.
      Had Lil Kim stayed normal she wouldn't be doing such desperate shit like that.



    59. 59

      Oh Lil Kim… Your so washed up! Give it a break. It's all about the new Barbie!!!!!!!!!!



    60. 60

      I THINK LIL" KIM IS HATING SOOO MUCH ON NICKI..AND ITS REAL OBIVOUS TOO!!! IT WAS JUST LIKE CHRISTINA AND LADY GAGA…CHRISTINA WAS HATING AND TRY TO COPY AS WELL…FACE IT THERE WILL ALWAYS BE NEW PEOPLE COMING UP TO TAKE THE SPOT.. IT HAPPENS!!!!



    61. 61

      To be honest, if you look at her old stuff, Nicki is pretty much recycling what Lil' has done before, that being said, there's no need to go on a massive attack against her, if anything she should be doing something new, original and exciting - that would ultimately separate the Lil's from the Nicki's.



    62. 62

      Who honestly gives a fuck what she comes out with,Minaj Started this so let Kim finish it . Minaj is a fucking cop off anyways . I am so sick of seeing you talk shit about everyone again, and another thing you say you want latino news feed, well why arent any up. There are plenty you just arent looking, Mc Magic,Ms Krazie,Lil Rob,Mr Capone-E etc. No they arent as popular as this pathetic shit, but theres your latino shit you have been complaining about well put them up . They make really good music .



    63. 63

      piece of guttersnipe trash. bitch gonna carry on like that when her legacy has diminished simply because of the increasingly substandard product that she putting out. can't stand her.



    64. 64

      I'm not even that big a fan of either of these ladies but if i had to pick a side itd be nicki. Lil Kim reminds me of a jealous ex girlfriend. like get on with your life, do bigger things and dont use another celebrities name to get popular again- do it on your own merit. such a ghetto bitch



    65. 65

      horrible !!



    66. 66

      stop riding nikki's shyt and get your facts straight birdman and all the execs at cash money lead kim on for years keeping her around so they can jack her whole style and kept nikki close to kim so she can see how kim walks and talks and acts…and once they didnt need kim anymore they cut all ties with her cause they just built their own younger lil kim in nikki minaj. shes got all the rights to be getting at that phony ass chick look up nikki before birdman pain for her new body and you'll see the big diffrence back when she was messing with remy ma under the sheets. nikki looked more manly then most of the rappers signed to cash money/young money.

      67

      "exceedingly violent imagery" are you fucking kidding me?!?!?!? she is a fuckin adult!!!! if she wants to put this stuff out more power to her!!!!!!! do i care for the album cover, no!!!! but thats because it just looks like shit and it has nothing to do with violence.



    68. 68

      I'm not a fan of either, but this is in very poor taste. Couldn't that be considered a threat that Nicki could/should take legal action on?



    69. 69

      Cartoon freak Nicki should've kept Kim's name out her mouth. Now she must suffer the full wrath of the Queen Bee!



    70. 70

      this is really sad, maybe she should just go back to jail



    71. 71

      Re: catlover – totally agree!



    72. 72

      lets just wait and see if black friday does better than pink friday, and i think the number of album sales will pretty much say who is the bigger, more relevant star here. needless to say, this classless, jealous bitch will go down and nicki wil keep getting bigger and bigger!



    73. 73

      They're both terrible. The end.



    74. 74

      How old is Lil Kim? Seriously grow the fuck up you dumb bitch. Instead of attacking Nicki all the time why doesnt this irrelevant whore come out with some NEW music?



    75. 75

      Lil Kim was on the scene long before Nikki, she is effin hard care if you do not remember-that is her image. Lil Kim is gonna school Nikki on how to be a female rapper. Nikki is a pop star not a rapper. These are LIl Kims roots, and if you do not like her dont buy her album. Half you probably never even heard lil kim spit,s o either get on the magic stick or get off!



    76. 76

      oh man!!! Photoshop much!! Kim hasn't looked that good since the early 90's. I'm on to you kim!!



    77. 77

      I understand you love Nicki (I think she's cool) but please put correct cover art out there. You're misinforming the public. I get you don't like it for reasons that its to violent, taking shots at Nicki, too much blood, etc…but that's not the real one.



    78. 78

      LIL KIM GROW UP!!!!!!!!! Leave MIZZ MINAJ ALONE!!!! she is the QUEEN BEE at this moment. And this cover is just so BAD, Lil Kim does not look like that at all these days, she looks more like cat woman these days. Go get more plastic surgery or something.

    79. Went says – reply to this


      79

      Yikes!! Is this official? Aside from being overtly violent and dangerous, Kim is trying to pass off that she is thin? Ha. C'mon, Kim. I used to love you, but this is just sad.



    80. 80

      ew, I was never a Lil Kim fan but I thought she was better than this. She is being such a meangirl.



    81. 81

      that photo is awful - photoshopped BADLY beyond recognition, which exactly how she appears in real life, unrealisitcally altered - so I guess it's fitting then.



    82. 82

      I absolutely LOVE this…..even if it is probbably fake! Nicki is just a wanna be copycat of kim/gaga. I find NM horrible…and I cant stand to look at her….whenever I see her deer in the headlight stare, I ust wanna punch the tv. Kim is awesome!



    83. 83

      Re: PerezTheHypocrite – there's a difference between showing your feelings and being mean,cruel and violent. Oh and your comment about gay men? Totally irrelevant. It doesn't even have something to do with this, you clearly have some issues ;) This site is owned by a gay for crying out loud, if you don't like it, why are you here? Nobody forced you to.



    84. 84

      this just shows how jealous she is of Nicki Minaj. Why can't there be more than one female rapper? Does she think she is being clever by making a violent version of Nicki Minaj's album? She is ruining her career by doing this. Also, her cover art for her album is photoshopped so much she looks like a cartoon. We know all celebrities use photoshop but damn.. at least most of them look realistic.

      Get over it Lil' Kim. Do your own thing instead of using Nicki Minaj.



    85. 85

      *cough*Attention Whore… *cough*… Hmm…. Damn cold…



    86. 86

      Kim is obssessed with Nicki… its ridiculous… she should know better than this bull shit! She has been around enough violence in her life to know that this type of imagery is not cool. Kim is a better rapper but Nicki is on top right now either congratulate or step ur game back up… it shouldnt result in this… its disgusting…



    87. 87

      Re: Queen of the Rant – Yeah Kim is a good rapper, so why doesn't she just fucking rap rather than starting these celebrity feuds, such a Z-list, has been tactic to get some attention.



    88. 88

      First of all, it's N-I-C-K-I not Nikki. Second, I think this picture is just wrong! In all her interviews, she talks about Nicki. In her songs, she raps about Nicki. She does nothing but mock Nicki everywhere! I just hope she's not SERIOUS to the point where she wants to kill Nicki in real life. I mean, she's been in jail before and she's so jealous that I do think she might do it. Nicki isn't copying her! When Nicki was underground, they were FRIENDS! In a video from a while back, Nicki said she talked to Kim and everything was ok. Now that Nicki is SUCCESSFUL, Kim hates her? If Nicki was still underground, she wouldn't feel threatened. Just leave Nicki alone. She's successful, living her dreams and you're a bitter, jealous, old washed up rapper that nobody cares about and that's why you're mad. You claim Nicki is copying you but look at this album cover! Nicki is on the cover, you have the lines like on Pink Friday, same font, same style, almost the same name, it's ridiculous. Nicki isn't paying you any mind!

      89

      fuck you perez, you are such a piece of shit and yes I love lil kim and cant stand that fake idiot that is talentless nicki minaj, if you cant tell she is a fake ho loser then something is wrong with you and then again youre probably also a fake gaga loser fan. fuck you.

      Ew. Just ew. Tasteless and stupid. Jealousy is not pretty, Kim.

      Re: who_dat_kid1984 – ummmm kim has been around for more than a decade there is not need to keep her around to see how she walks talks and acts… u dumbass



    92. 92

      You obviously don't know Lil Kim's side of things.



    93. 93

      Ew. drive by shooting on kim plz?

      Re: Cheryl Lynn Angevine – lets be real, would a fucking mudlick honkey such as yourself buy her album anyway? shut the fuck up!



    95. 95

      why are people surprised? this woman practically participated in the whole east coast/west coast rap war, or has everyone forgotten about that?
      rap is classless, tasteless and (mostly) violent, so why is anyone surprised when lil kim "decapitates" a bland black girl trying to be a white barbie?



    96. 96

      Lil Kim, your reign in hiphop/ rap is over….like 10 yrs ago. Get over yourself. There is always going to be future female rappers that amount to something and maybe in 10 yrs to come it will be the same for them as well. Just grow up and grow some balls.



    97. 97

      Re: JGirl1988 – maybe on nickis 1st underground album she sounded like kim but she sounds nothing like kim on her mainstream album



    98. 98

      i never take the time to comment on any of these posts… but this is just ridiculous. ever heard of the high road? nothing screams jealousy and insecurity more than this. also way to promote violence, nice.



    99. 99

      LOL this is just silly!



    100. 100

      Washed up trash !
