With all of the celebrities giving their opinion on the Lil' Kim/ Nicki Minaj beef, it's only right that Miami rapstress Trina weighed in and gave her two cents.
In an interview with Rollingout.com, Trina discusses why she feels that the beef has been blown out of proportion and also why she feels that it needs to be squashed.
“I just think that it is a miscommunication,” Trina said in the interview. “I know Kim and she is a sweet person and I know Nicki too and she is also a good person. I just think that everything has been blown out of proportion and the two of them need to kiss and make up.”

Nicolas Cocaign, dubbed “The Cannibal of Rouen” has been sentenced to 30 years in prison in France.
On Thursday, a French court convicted Cocaign of killing his cellmate and eating part of the man's lung and sentenced him to 30 years in prison.
The 39-year-old Cocaign may benefit from early release after psychiatric treatment and good behavior after he has served 20 years.
Prosecutor Elisabeth Pelsez said she did not seek a life sentence because the defendant was mentally unstable.
As previously reported, Cocaign, who was already serving a prison charge for murder and acts of barbarism, allegedly cut the victim's chest open and performed acts of cannibalism while the victim was still alive. (more...)

"I think it's extraordinary. But I do think that it could have been better, actually. I think there were a couple of key markets that they didn't really take advantage of, like television."
With the numbers in for Drake's Thank Me Later, Bun B clearly feels as though it's great that he sold what he did, but it should have been much better than it turned out.
