Lil' Kim has been dissing Nicki Minaj for almost a year and has become a target for other female rappers. For years, fans had been waiting on her to release a new album. During the wait, Nicki Minaj emerged in the game as a star for Young Money. Lil' Kim soon took offense.

When Nicki Minaj entered the game, she credited Lil' Kim as her inspiration. However, when Lil' Kim was asked about Nicki, she said she was not impressed. Instead, she was offended about the way she stole her style. Lil' Kim said she would not have minded it if Nicki had at least paid homage to her.

Many rappers have given their opinion on the beef. Most rappers have sided with Nicki Minaj or asked Lil' Kim to calm down. Fellow female rapper, Shawnna, recently weighed in on the feud. She feels the entire situation is unnecessary because they are both talented rappers. Shawnna is the first rapper to come out and say that she hates the feud.

The reason Shawnna hates the feud is because she feels like there is room for both of them. Shawnna said she thinks Lil' Kim is a legend in her own right. Due to her legendary status, she should not feel threatened by the presence of Nicki Minaj. Shawnna feels Lil' Kim changed the rap game and made women believe they could dominate in a game controlled by men. She also feels Nicki Minaj is a special talent and she did not steal Lil' Kim's style because Kim was more hardcore.
