It’s been quite the journey for Lil’ Kim in her Hip-Hop career. From rapping alongside the G.O.A.T. to dominating the charts on her own and eventually doing a bid for being a down ass chick, Kimberly Denise Jones has been on the kind of bizarre ride that could inspire another Pharcyde record.
Today (Nov. 3) the original Queen B stopped by Ebro In The Morning to talk about that shocking story that Jermaine Dupri told about her and Biggie, what it would take for her to squash her beef with Nicki Minaj, and why she had a falling out with Prodigy.
Here are the 7 things we learned from Lil’ Kim on Ebro In The Morning.

2. Jermaine Dupri’s Story
Kim admits that Jermaine Dupri’s story about Biggie pulling a gun on her is “very close to the truth” and says that though she and Big were close they did have a “very… violent relationship.” She also confirmed that Big hooked up with her friend recalling that Big told her “She asked me for $400. I asked her ‘what cha gonna do for that $400.”

3. Big Jealous
Speaking about that studio session with Usher, Kim says that Jermaine reached out to Lance “Un” Rivera for the feature and Biggie interjected himself into the situation to make sure Kim didn’t “have any eyes for Usher.”

6. Nicki Minaj
Responding to Rosenberg’s question what Kim would say if Nicki approached her being apologetic for whatever situation they have, Kim says “Some things just can’t be mended unless there’s like a different kind of conversation. Cause some people take it too far. Some people take it to a point where they try to take everything from you.” She later added “You get so many windows in life and you get so many times in the music industry to make something right and when you shun it at one point people gonna be like ‘you phony! I can’t!’ A snake is a snake. I’m not gonna pick it up just because it was being nice to me and wrap it around my leg. It’s still a snake.” She does say if they do work something out it’ll have to be “about that check – it’s about that bag cause you not really real.”

7. Prodigy
Kim says that she and Prodigy (R.I.P.) weren’t speaking for a very long time after he tanked an onstage performance with her and Havoc. Kim says that P had a crush on her and when “I didn’t react the way he wanted me to react for certain things he would act funny.” She does insist that they never took anything past being friends. She does say they were on speaking terms again before he passed.
