Lil Kim just cannot catch a break! Just when things were looking up for the Queen B, Voletta Wallace knocks the femcee off her game.
Monica’s newest single “Anything (to Find You),” which originally featured Missy Elliot, Rick Ross and Lil Kim will now be released without Kim’s verse. Why? It seems as if Monica’s new hit sports a sample from Wallace’s son, Notorious B.I.G.’s legendary hit “Who Shot Ya.”
Fans of Kim were puzzled when Monica’s track debuted this past week without the rap queen featured. Monica made it clear to fans that this was all Voletta’s doing.
Monica tweets:
“I am just finding out what has happened to my single and myself & Missy are beyond hurt that @LilKim was removed. She’s our friend, a legend & @LilKim will get the respect she deserves at all cost. The clearance was revoked & I’m fighting to get it reinstated by the Biggie Estate.
“We respect all parties involved & were gonna do WHATEVER to keep the song as is because @lilKim the bizness on the record…”
“I am as thorough as they come and I LOVE @LilKim bottom line is Ms Wallace has the final say and she said No. If we put it out we get SUED.”
Was that a low blow from Voletta? What do you think of Voletta Wallace’s decision to block Lil Kim’s appearance on the track – justified or over-the-top?
