Lil Kim vs. Foxy Brown: A Brief History

A look back at key moments in the rap divas' beef.

Return Fire - Fox finally responded on wax, lighting into Lil Kim with a ferocious guest verse on Capone-N-Noreaga’s “Bang Bang,” and even touching on her relationship with the late Biggie:You talk slick, f---is all that sneak s---?You and Diddy, y'all kill me with that subliminal s---, b---hWhy's you frontin and kickin that street s---?Please, impress me, go back to that freak s---….Let the nigga rest in peace, and hop off his d---, b---h do youAnd ya'll h--s is like "f--- Fox," well screw y'all too(Photo: Tommy Boy Records)
More Than Words - For the first time, the war between the two divas draws blood—real blood. On February 25, 2001, Lil Kim and her entourage run into Capone and his crew at New York’s Hot 97 radio station. An argument ensues, and shots are fired, leaving one man injured. In 2005 Kim (seen here entering the courtroom with her lawyer) spends a year in prison after lying to the Feds about her crew’s role in the incident.(Photo: Scott Gries/Getty Images)
Let’s Be Friends - A week after the shooting, Fox extends an olive branch. "I really don't know how it started," she said of the beef. "I want to call a truce… I want to have a sit-down with Kim. I don't care what it is. Let's just end it. We can even do a collaboration. We're bigger than this."(Photo: Lawrence Lucier/Getty Images)
Foxy Brown  - This hip hop diva has been on the scene since the mid 90s and has collaborations with heavy weights like Jay Z, Nas and Method Man under her belt.(Photo: Stephen Lovekin/Getty Images)Snake in the Grass  - Lil Kim spoke on the pair’s long-running beef last year: "I don't even want to mention her. One moment she got something bad to say about me, one moment she got something good to say. I don't like that flip flop s---, that just means that you're still crazy! My mom always told me if you know there's a snake in the grass, and you know it's a snake that bit you before, why would you pick it back up? I'm not picking back up anymore snakes no more.”
