EVE LASHES OUT ! "If It Wasn't For [Lil] Kim, [Nicki Minaj] Wouldn't Be Here & That Sh*t Is Real

Philadelphia rapper Eve recently offered her take on the past war of words between Lil Kim and Nicki Minaj, admitting the Queen Bee paved a lane for her to follow.

At the end of the day, Eve believes Kim simply wants some respect from Nicki.

"It's not about publicity. It's about wanting that respect," Eve said in an interview. "I think maybe that's where Kim is coming from, like, you're doing your thing right now and no one can take that away from you, Nicki--we all see it--but at the end of the day, if it wasn't for Kim, she wouldn't be here and that sh*t is real." Thanks EVE and thats some official shit.
