    Lil Kim Has A Movie On The Way; Calls “Notorious” Inaccurate

    Lil Kim has announced she’s working on her own film about her life and career, and called the 2009 portrayal of her in “Notorious” inaccurate.

    While a guest on Nick Cannon’s Big Drive interview series, the rapper discussed her career and legacy and explained why the biopic was an inaccurate depiction of her. “Notorious was not accurate,” she said. “A lot of it was not accurate. I’m going to show everybody what really happened between me and Biggie in the Lil Kim movie because it’s coming.”

    Kim said the project is “100% in the works,” and it might be a “documentary instead of a biopic.” The rapper has been vocal about how the movie depicted her. In 2021, she talked about the kind of story she wants to be told about her.

    “I want people to know the real Kim. All the stories that everybody else tells, chile, don’t listen to it,” she said. Kim also said that she wants a specific person to play her in the film about her life. “It can only be a girl that’s from the hood that I’m from. I love Teyana, she’s my only other thought.”

    She continued, “There’s nobody else in the industry at all, but Teyana. But even before Teyana, – I love Teyana, but she’s from Harlem – before Teyana, I would love to give some little girls from Brooklyn a chance so I can connect. Really connect.”

    Ja Rule Wants To Produce A 50 Cent Documentary- Reigniting Their Legendary Feud

    Just when you thought the beef between Ja Rule and 50 Cent was over, a new level has been unlocked.

    This past Sunday, Ja Rule had some things to say about 50 Cent and his producing the four-part Netflix documentary, Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The “Always on Time” rapper tweeted, “Let’s be real that n***a dgaf about the victims we ALL know why he did the doc.”

    He continued, “Herman’s a cancer to the culture if he cares so much, then donate the profits to charities for domestic violence.” Ja Rule continued his rant about 50 Cent on Monday, Dec. 8th, where he alluded to making his own documentary about 50.

    Rule shared screenshots of old articles displaying the “Many Men” rapper’s alleged involvement in assaulting his former partner and burning down the house belonging to the mother of his first child.

    “I think I’m gonna start doing docs there’s A LOT to unpack here ALLEGEDLY,” he tweeted. Ja Rule also tweeted that 50 Cent was a rat for producing the docuseries about Diddy.

    It’s previously been reported that Daphne Joy, the mother of 50’s youngest son, Sire Jackson, accused the rapper of sexual and physical violence against her. He reportedly trolled her after she was named as a sex worker in a lawsuit filed against Diddy. 50 went on to filed a $1 million defamation lawsuit.

    While promoting the docuseries, 50 Cent has said that he doesn’t have any negative feelings towards the disgraced media mogul. Sean Combs: The Reckoning is streaming now on Netflix.
