DEBATABLE DEBATES: Wendy Williams Doesn’t Think Lil Kim Reached The Same Level As Nicki Minaj, What Say You?

Per usual, Wendy Williams is all for sharing her opinion on all the happenings in the world of entertainment. Her latest stance is having Nicki Minaj’s back after the rapper said she re-introduced the female rapper to mainstream music. Nicki went in detail to XXL saying “my role in hip-hop has been super unique because when my first album came out, there had been so much time where there wasn’t a female rap album out that went platinum.”

During Wendy’s talk show yesterday morning, she shared the hot topic with her viewers, telling them “Nicki Minaj is crediting herself for making female rap mainstream.” Right away the crowd gave a gasp, clearly not agreeing with the comment.

“Well now, haters, you might not like her, but she said ‘mainstream,’ as in, you go into Kmart and there’s her clothing, you turn on pop music stations and there’s her music. Lil Kim had her moment, but by the time she went to jail, she just couldn’t get it back together afterwards,” Wendy said. “Nicki does say in XXLmagazine that, ‘There wasn’t a big female rap presence right before I got in…My role was reintroducing the female rapper to pop culture.’ I agree! I don’t know if she should’ve said it herself…” Watch the clip below.

After Nicki’s interview went public lots of people were quick to throw a few jabs at her alluding to her being full of herself or thinking she’s better than lots of other female rappers such as Queen Latifah and Eve. She posted a video with the original footage of her interview on Instagram so no one could “remix” her words. Her caption was lengthy since she dropped facts on the past successes of female rappers and asked her fans to check the facts. She ended her rant with, “…love you guys for holding me down but what’s true is true & whats not is just simply not.” Check out Wendy’s initial comments and Nicki’s response below. Do you agree with Wendy?

I see ppl remixing my words so let me post "exactly" what I said for the intelligent ones in the back. Now, if you can find the part where I said "I made female rappers mainstream", I'll give you $100,000.00. ? blogs & tv shows don't care to do actual research these days, they only care about what grabs your attention… at anyone's expense. Imagine me saying I made female rappers mainstream when there were so many women who already had platinum albums under their belts. ? Lauryn sold 10 million off one album, Eve had platinum singles w/Alicia, Gwen Stefani, her own tv show & clothing line. It doesn't get more mainstream/pop than Missy's biggest singles. Foxy&Kim had platinum albums & shaped the sound of NY female rappers, Latifah had her own sitcom, Trina was on billboard with hits, etc-? I appreciate the love but I never said that. ??? now what I DID say is right here for anyone w/their own brain to decipher words on their own. I know it's hard in the social media band wagon era, but try. It's fun. ?. When I came out, there had been a drought of a few years where NO female rap album had gone platinum, females weren't getting budgets, the industry did NOT believe in the female rapper anymore. They had stopped generating MONEY for labels. Ask any rap historian or just anyone with a brain. These are facts and nothing but the facts. So I "REINTRODUCED" the "successful" female rapper back to POP CULTURE. Showed big business we were major players in the game just like the boys were. ♥️?? love you guys for holding me down but what's true is true & whats not is just simply not. ? update your blogs & tv shows with what I actually said please ??. I can't believe this lil interview made it to tv. Haha. See u guys on tour next year. I got a cpl BIG surprises. AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! ?
