“Let Me Blow Ya Mind” by Eve
Target: Lil Kim
“Some of y’all n—-s hot—Sike! I’m gassin’/Clowns–I spot ‘em and I can’t stop laughin’/Easy come, easy go, Evie gon’ be lastin’/Jealousy, let it go, results could be tragic/Some of y’all aint writin’ well, too concerned with fashion/None of you aint Gizelle, cat walk and imagine/Alotta y’all Hollywood—drama? Past it/Cut b—h camera off, real shit–blast it…”
In 2001, Lil Kim’s celebrity was at an all-time high. Unfortunately, her second album, Notorious K.I.M. hadn’t lived up to the critical and commercial heights of her 1996 debut, Hardcore. She’d also had some catty comments regarding peers like Foxy Brown and the fiery Ruff Ryders First Lady, Eve. So Eve subtly threw darts at Kim’s fashionista image and uninspired music on this mega-hit with Gwen Stefani.
