And the feud goes on! More than just temporary nemeses, Lil Kim and Nicki Minaj are on track to become full-on mortal enemies for life now that the wiggy Trinidadian has taken a swipe back at the former jailbird who devoted an entire mixtape to this she-brawl. That swipe comes in the form of the snippet “Tragedy,” produced by Hit-Boy and rumored to be from Lil Wayne’s upcoming Tha Carter IV. Amongst other clever digs, Harajuku Barbie compares her nemesis to a very different type of doll: “Last name Ann, first name Raggedy.” Ouch! Hear the minute-long snippet below.

But Nicki’s already clearly come out ahead in this battle royale thanks to all her recent success, while Lil Kim came off as a has-been struggling to stay relevant by cashing in on controversy she herself created. Is a response from Nicki necessary? Absolutely not — but you’ll never hear us complaining about new music from this “Fly” girl, especially when the result is as delightfully catty as “Tragedy.”
