Maino revealed that he hasn't spoken to Lil Kim, his former close friend, in nearly nine years, attributing the silence to Kim's tendency to hold grudges. The discussion touched upon Kim's perceived grievances in the music industry, including her long-standing tension with Nicki Minaj. According to Vlad, Minaj admired Kim, but disputes over finances and recognition prevented collaborations, like the failed Verzuz battle. The conversation touched on Kim's personal struggles, noting that her career seemed hampered by emotional entanglements and her relationship with the late Biggie, who influenced much of her early music. Despite Kim’s undeniable impact, there was speculation that her inability to adapt to the ever-evolving industry might have stagnated her career, while Nicki’s relentless drive secured her a top position among female rappers.
