Miami rap star Trina is open to competing in a Verzuz battle if the opportunity presents itself and recently told DJ Scream on his “Hood Rich Radio” show that she’d like to put her catalog up against Lil Kim.
“[Lil] Kim is that b—–. Let’s be very clear … when I came into the industry, this is who I looked at, looked up to. These are the lyrics that I recited, this is what made me know that it’s okay to talk that lethal s— … Therefore, I would feel like that’s equivalent because Kim is legendary, and she’s got mad records,” stated the Diamond Princess.
Trina explained to Scream that it would be more like a girls’ trip than an actual battle.
“It won’t even feel like a competition because it’s a family thing,” she continued. “I’m probably gonna be so much more engaged in her records than anything, cuz it’ll go back to when I first heard her, so I’ll be in my vibe, like fanned out. … That’s just what I would say. That’s just my little opinion, but nobody reached out,” added the “Pull Over” hitmaker.
