She's so tiny here

I really think the problem was within herself...

She was extremely gorgeous! All of them wow are so refreshing to look at. Wish she stayed this way :( but this big ass cheek bone filler movement took off🥴 bring natural back

I agree

Or she just didn’t believe it

Yes she was now she looks scary

Facts.

She was abused and had no choice on the matter. If someone punched you in the face and broke your nose only to have everyone point out that you clearly had word done how would you handle the situation?

@@Boodeez get my nose fixed but not change my whole image. We ALL go through trauma in our lives but it is a choice to change who we are and that’s exactly what she did and now she’s unnoticeable. It doesn’t take away from all the hard work she put in though.

I agree...I always thought that Lil Kim was 🔥 back in the day. She looks exceptionally beautiful in this video.

@Jordan Barclay stfu she’s all natural bet ur insecure asf

Yes we can 👏🏾👏🏾

Her personality made her EVEN MORE beautiful

iAgree

was Aaliyah of mixed race? or purely black?

I love how missy got a huge painting of aaliyah in her house still to this day

Yes, she's a unifier.

🎯🎯

❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love missy❤

True! But it seems like aaliyah was moving away from kim and leaning toward Missey; it seems like aaliyah and kim probably had a disagreement or some dislike for e/o by their body language. And also kim looks uncomfortable sitting by her too. But both ladies showed maturity/class regardless. I think im reading too much into the video lol

@@ceeset5472 you are lol

@@ceeset5472 Aaliyah was leaning on her also she was leaning on both of each other! And they were just dancing and holding hands together so how does that mean they had a disagreement? Lil kim even wanted Aaliyah to be in her video!

@@marilynking3350 If you look earlier aaliyah was moving away from lil kim like they had had a disagreement behind the scenes. Also of course lil kim and aaliyah are going to pretend to be buddy buddy in front of the camera. Because their getting paid and it wouldn't look right if they wasn't interacting with e/o on camera. Also at the vmas when aaliyah was announced by Ricky Martin to achieve her award u could see lil kim giving her a jealous look. Like I said that's what it looked like to me. I could be wrong 🤷‍♀️

@@ceeset5472 you are if anything Lil Kim had love for Aaliyah like she was a little sister the only was doing what the camera crew was telling them to do they all had mad love for one another

She look mean as hell though. Always frowning.

@@IamCleo I feel you. That comment was just the perfect storm of ignorance.

@@lalasmitty4twenty538 Troll.

@@lalasmitty4twenty538 I’m all for calling out colorism but this ain’t it. Aaliyah was stunning with a beautiful personality to match. Everything ain’t colorism. Also, she wore extensions they were just more natural.

Did you give back handed compliments to your mommy

@@introvertedcusp3364 My comment wasn't back handed...

@@introvertedcusp3364 Notice that I put the words "dark skin" in quotes. We as black people shouldn't need to call ourselves dark when our skin shades are the standard across the diaspora.

What does her shade have to do with her beauty? It's people like you that are part of the problem and why we are still so brainwashed.

@@egyptianqueen4007 Her being "dark skin" has everything to do with it. Notice I used quotes around "dark skin" (Those skin shades represent the majority of us across the diaspora), Missy has always been an icon & example to other black women especially "dark skin" women to be comfortable in one's skin. I mentioned "dark skin" because of the prevalent nature of colourism in society & especially in the music & entertainment industry. Missy has always transcended the fuckry...

What she said?

Biggie's cheating ass and being so in love with light Faith Evans

it was bc she was abused while in a relationship

@@desiroo7138 I didn't know that!!

@@gabrielle916 In a nutshell!!!!

Yes Kim was “bullied“ by people including men she was in a relationship with but she didn’t change herself for them neither did she blamed them for why she did anything to herself. She was abused in a relationship and was beaten really badly which was one of many reasons she got surgeries and yes biggie was also “bullied” about his weight etc but at the end of the day he isn’t kim many people handle things in the wrong way. Also lil Kim knew biggie way before Faith so yes after he got married to faith after only knowing her for a week or so did break her heart.

Ummm carpet munching isn’t a sacrifice?

She will always get her flowers from me. One of my fav rappers ever! So funkdafied 👑

She has now smh

Natural beauty

Me too💕

Same

Right

They had the fashions down!

Your right but TLC and Aaliyah really started it

Nah Aaliyah and Kim had unique swags that nobody else had

It's very easy to pinpoint who copies Lil Kim. But who imitates Aaliyah? (No one can come close or compare, maybe that's why I don't realize who is copying my Bæ! 😫)

Me too. 😬

So was Missy and Lil Kim though. Missy was writing a lot of Aaliyah's hits. And all these female rappers are just copying Lil Kim.

yes. she knew where Hip Hop was headed!

They all were.

It still impresses me how I can see an old picture of Aaliyah in an outfit that would still look good even in today's times.

@@LightninRodsAttractMagic except Aaliyah because Aaliyah isn’t a rapper she’s a singer

Hellz yeah! 😘

Frrr 😩😩

Yes!!!!

They are 😍🥰

I just watch Da Brat ft. Tyrese Gibson - Wat'chu Like Nice Song and Video

Beautiful.

Love her so much. She was sooo beautiful.

She's the youngest one, but also the oldest

I think she was in Learning mode. Willing to soak up as much knowledge as she could, which cannot be acquired through talking so much and being a know it all. Learning is fun and she was an Angel. I miss her so

Definitely Lil Kim!

Preach!

The internet!! Social media has warped our brains... remember how parents didn’t want us watching tv 24/7.. now we have social media on our finger tips.. this plays a huge influence on our minds. We see 1 popular person and think that’s how we should be.. it’s very unfortunate. Social media has allowed people to create a look which doesn’t even match who they really are... Build a bear!

Wow interesting statement

@Dee Powell thing is people have been copying since forever . The problem now is the actual industry. They are the ones putting copies of the same people on. There are sooooo many original independent artists out there with WAY more talent but we won't get to see them because they dont fit into the industry's little bubble

Yes i had to get out the matrix

I know, right? R.I.P To that old beautiful gorgeous brown Kim.

She got abused

The first one she got cus a broken nose she said

It’s crazy how fucking gorgeous she was and she let biggie (who even called himself “black and ugly as Eva”) make her feel that her brown skin wasn’t beautiful enough 😞😞

Yeah Larry very organic. Each of these ladies are artists in their own right with mega hits and their own individual massive fanbase. When you listen to this interview...no egos and so chilled. They probably didn't realise how influential they were and still are. Shout out to all of them!!! Miss you Aaliyah...we see you in so many artists but they can never match!!!

Forgot to mention..no egos here as well!!!

Facts!!

Ha I noticed that. They both were speaking facts too!

Right.I noticed that

Tale as old as time

Yeah but notice the difference in how they carry themselves. Right mesage, wrong messenger

Okay calm tf down. Aaliyah was no Madonna or Janet Jackson.

@@icytakaqi9en947 yes she was lmao she created her own genre of music with Timbaland, and her her own set style that girls are copying to this day

@@icytakaqi9en947 she was definitely on her way for her era. Everyone knew who Aaliyah was, especially when she crossed over into acting.

I was her biggest fan as a kid but idk about this statement. I loved her style, music, etc but her voice wasn’t quite there yet. Her voice needed some work now that I listen to her. It was beautiful but not better than most artists today. I’m sure it would’ve gotten better if she were still here, kind of like with most artists who sound wayyyyy better than when they started

whaaaat??? I can think that we can all agree that hip hop and R&B is not the same now as it was in the 90s!!!
