Jacki-O is the latest rapper to diss Lil' Kim. Lil' Kim has been on the offense for months with disses aimed at Nicki Minaj. But, recently, Foxy Brown re-ignited her feud with Lil' Kim. Now, the woman who infamously fought Foxy Brown, Jacki-O, is sending shots at Lil' Kim.

Last month, Jacki-O announced her new persona. Her new persona is based on Griselda "The Black Widow" Blanco. She went as far as contacting Blanco's son to receive his blessing to name her mixtape after his mother. Blanco was an infamous female cocaine dealer.

Lil' Kim recently began calling herself "Kimmy Blanco." She is naming herself, too, after The Black Widow. Jacki-O has taken offense because she went as far as to speak with the family before she adopted the name. Meanwhile, Lil' Kim simply picked the name up to go along with her new rap style.

Jacki-O has released a diss record, "Bang Bang," which is aimed at Lil' Kim, but she does not call Lil' Kim out by name. By the way things are looking, Lil' Kim may need to align herself with Nicki Minaj instead of sending so many disses in her direction.

Miami rapper, Jacki O, is in the middle of a comeback so she is back on her mixtape grind. In an effort to raise publicity for her new mixtape, she chose a title which would turn heads. Jacki O named her latest mixtape after female crime boss, Griselda Blanco.

When she revealed the title of the mixtape, many hip hop outlets hinted towards a possible feud. These possibilites heightened when Jacki O received a call from the Godmother's son. But, the call was nonconfrontational according to Jacki O.

Blanco's son, Michael Corleone Blanco gave Jacki O the family blessing to use his mother's name. He offered to collaborate with her to portray her in a light that the media never did. Michael Blanco told Jacki O that his mother was big on family.

More than anything, he was honored that she chose to honor his mother. The only problem he had was the cover Jacki O chose to use. Jacki O said she will use what she learned about Ms. Blanco to help repair her image from the grave. This is not by any means an attempt from Jacki O to imitate Griselda Blanco, but she can relate to her being a female in a male-dominated field.
