Rappers Can't Sing

Rappers rap for a reason. They can't sing. Lil' Kim accompanied Cyndi Lauper on stage in a duet last weekend in NY. They sang Time After Time a classic Lauper song, or should I say Lauper sang.

Cyndi looked youthful and the song was great until Lil' Kim opened her mouth. It leaves you to wonder, is this why rappers rap? If they could sing, would they just forget about rapping completely? Making things worse, Lauper and Lil' Kim added some rap to the tune for the sake of praising their concerts benefactor, birthday boy Nelson Mandela. Lauper rapped better than Lil Kim as well.

Lil' Kim is a Lil' Miffed About Her Portrayal in New Biggie Film

Biggie Smalls was not only Lil' Kim's mentor, but they were also romantically involved (on-and-off) for quite some time. Although Kim's character has quite a bit of screen time, Lil' Kim claims that she's extremely unhappy about how her relationship with the notorious rapper was portrayed by the screenwriters.

She claims, "Even though my relationship with Big was at times very difficult and complicated (as with most relationships we have all experienced at one time or another), it was also genuine and built on great admiration and love for each other. Regardless of the many lies in the movie and false portrayal of me to help carry a story line through, I will still continue to carry his legacy through my hard work and music."

A rep for Kim has also released a statement that claims the producers involved were "more concerned about painting [Kim] as a 'character' to create a more interesting story line instead of a person with talent, self-respect and who was able to achieve her own career success through hard work."

Despite the diva's discontentment, the screenwriter says that he believes the actress playing Kim "did a great job" and that "people are going to be a lot more sympathetic towards [Lil' Kim] after seeing the movie."

Isn't the film supposed to be about the life and legacy of Biggie? Get over yourself, girl.
