There’s certainly plenty of drama between many of the rap girls these days, but one duo that’s spreading the love is Lil‘ Kim and Cardi B

Appearing on a special reboot episode of Rap City, which aired ahead of the 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards on Tuesday night, Kim gushed about her fellow New York rapper, providing details about their close relationship.  

“There’s rumors you did something with Cardi,” inquired Rap City host Big Tigger. “When are we getting that Cardi song?”

The rap legend didn’t quite answer the question but was excited to talk about their friendship. 

“Cardi is like the love of my life,” she said with a smile. “Y’all don’t even know — she makes me laugh.”

Kim added of their relationship, “We talk a lot, people have no idea. She’s my little sister but she’s really my big, little sister.”

The rap legend said Cardi often offers advice and “directs” her on certain industry moves. “We just laugh a lot,” Kim continued.

Though there was no confirmation about an upcoming collaboration track, the rappers were recently spotted in the studio together, as seen in a video clip shared by The Neighborhood Talk. 

In a series of Twitter posts last December, Cardi went to bat for Lil’ Kim, defending the “Crush on You” rapper against cyberbullying.

“I know how much it hurts to constantly get picked on,” Cardi wrote, adding that, “When I collab wit her is going to be at the right time & the right song. I don’t rush BIG MOMENTS!.” 

As far as the hip-hop world is concerned, hopefully, that “right song” is on its way soon.
