In a recent gathering at the Brooklyn Chop House in Times Square, Busta Rhymes took a moment to show his love and support for Lil’ Kim, urging the legendary rapper to return to the music scene. The event, held on March 9, was in honor of Busta’s latest project, Dragon Season… The Awakening, which was released earlier this year, and his son Trillion’s collaboration with NLE Choppa on the track Smyl (Show Me Your Love).
Busta’s Bold Call for Kim to “Light the Fuse”
During the celebration, Busta Rhymes took the opportunity to address Lil’ Kim, sharing a personal conversation he’d recently had with her. As captured in a video from the event, Busta told the crowd that he had called Lil’ Kim the night before and told her he was tired of seeing her “sit down and be quiet.” He passionately declared, “Our alumni are [finally] getting our flowers now,” referencing other influential artists like Missy Elliott and Mary J. Blige, who’ve recently been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
“It’s Time to Get Active Again, Queen”
Busta continued, encouraging Kim to get back in the game and make her presence felt again. He expressed his belief that it was time for Lil’ Kim to “light the fuse” and bring the same energy to the game that made her an iconic figure in hip-hop. He compared her to the “dynamite stick” that needed to “bust again,” urging her to “bust your gun” and reclaim her place as the queen of Brooklyn.
A Powerful Show of Support
Before finishing his speech, Busta Rhymes asked the crowd to show their appreciation for Lil’ Kim, encouraging them to make noise if they wanted to see her back in action. The audience responded with loud cheers and applause, showing their support for the rapper’s return to the spotlight.
Lil’ Kim’s Potential Return to Hip-Hop
With Busta Rhymes’ heartfelt call to action, fans are hopeful that Lil’ Kim will heed the advice and return to music, bringing her legendary style back to the forefront of hip-hop. Her influence and contributions to the genre are undeniable, and with the support of her peers, it seems like the perfect time for the Queen Bee to reclaim her throne.
