If you were doing anything other than following Lil Kim on Twitter last night, then you may have missed out on this photographic morsel she shared with her followers, including the message “A little preview of what’s to come. Merry Christmas :) !!!!!” “Coming soon”? Lil Kim’s making plans for 2012? Read the rest of this entry »

A substantial number of questions were submitted for our first installment of The Maildrop and, as a result, K. has been granted temporary freedom to get some fresh air and enjoy the holiday with her family. Thank-yous to all and special gifts will be sent out to MikeTV, Withheld79 and Greed for having Uproxx profiles set up to go along with their questions. Read the rest of this entry »

The angle Busta took on this tribute to his homie Heavy D is different, but admirable. Instead of sorting through memories of the multi-talented Hip-Hop legend with his pen, the always-energetic MC spreads the love and asks listeners to honor the people we cherish while they’re still breathing.

Shout out to my sixth grade physical education teacher, Mrs. Wood. She’d always play the radio when we were in the gym and The LOX’s “Money, Power & Respect” religiously managed to fall in rotation. Credit Bad Boy’s stranglehold on radio circa ’97-’98, but also give credit to the record being one of the hardest in each respective MC’s catalog. Read the rest of this entry »

J. Edgar Tinsley was unimpressed with Lil Kim’s performance on Monica’s new record, “Anything (To Find You)” (which also features Rick Ross and production by Missy Elliott). Apparently so was Voletta Wallace, the woman who has suffered through bitter years without closure from the unsolved murder of her son, Christopher “The Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace.

What’s even crazier than Biggie Smalls’ fingerprints being all over this track is the fact that Monica is only 30 years old. Has 15 years really passed since first hearing “For You I Will” on the Space Jam soundtrack? That’s crazy. Regardless, Shannon Brown’s leading lady is currently putting together the pieces on her forthcoming album New Life. Read the rest of this entry »

Many days I thank Allah that we, The Crew, don’t actually work together in an actual office space. As evidenced from the 25 Essential Summer Songs list and previous Crew Love entries, the conflicting sounds blaring from everyone’s cubicle would ultimately sound like a bad 7th grade band recital.

I’ve been known to be on the glass is half-full side of the Nicki Minaj spectacle, but I’m not oblivious that the disclaimers her critics throw at her hold validity. Few will argue that Kim played herself last year by dissing the Young Money starlet as a last resort to relevance. But imagine if Nicki really acknowledged Kim and if they were to go bar-for-bar in the fight club, would the more popular Ms. Minaj be able to emerge as victor? Read the rest of this entry »

At this point, we deem it necessary to quote the lyrics of Nicki’s real shots in song dedicated to the artist formerly known as Lil Kim. Although the battle has been largely one-sided by Nicki adopting what I refer to as “the Biggie approach,” i.e. not responding thus essentially ignoring a pesky foe, La Bella Mafia gets put on timeout rather quickly in a matter of lines.
