During a Instagram live session with Usher and Swizz Beatz, the two discussed a variety of topics, including the Vezuz battle series.

During the conversation, Usher chimed in on a Nicki Minaj VS Lil Kim battle, and Nicki’s fans are not happy with his comments.

While the two were discussing who should be on the next battle, Swizz mentioned the two Queens, he said “but then I seen Lil Kim VS Nicki..I see a lot of that.”  Almost hesitant, Usher replied with, “Nicki is a product of Lil Kim.”

Take a look below.

They mad at Usher for saying NM is a product of Lil Kim. Lil Kim's influence can be found all over female rap. KIM took heat for sexually explicit lyrics, music videos & all just so yall favs could be comfortable doing it YEARS LATER. Denying it on Stan Twitter wont change that. pic.twitter.com/q45199yKsd

Social media reacted to Usher’s comments. Do you think the two should go hit-for-hit?

Who even knew about this? Usher only had 2 bops in the last 10 years and that’s because of Nicki Minaj.

Kim is NOT beating Nicki in no versus battle… idc how many nostalgic feels you get from Kim. It’s not even close if you really think about it.

Honestly Lil Kim should do a Verzuz cause people acting like they forgot the impact.
