Remy Ma recruits Lil’ Kim on New Nicki Minaj diss track “Wake Me Up” | Listen on BN
Remy Ma has accomplished a whole lot since being released from a lengthy prison sentence in 2014. She’s had a major hit single with Fat Joe to go along with a collaborative album—and, of course, a very-well-publicized beef with Nicki Minaj. Now, Remy has two more notches on her belt: a new song with Lil’ Kim, and a new partnership with Columbia Records.
The Kim collaboration “Wake Me Up” finds the Queen Bee jumping in for a hook and bridge in a style reminiscent of her 1990s heyday.
While much of the song could be read as standard boasting, Remy appears, as anticipated (and despite Kim’s denials), to take a direct shot at Nicki in the second verse. “I’ll say it to your face, don’t gotta relay that sh*t,” she raps. “If Nic’ cold and kid, man, O.J. that b**ch.” The reference is somewhat confusing, as O.J. Simpson‘s murdered ex-wife was Nicole Brown Simpson, not famed actress Nicole Kidman. Regardless, it appears that Remy’s decade-plus beef with Minaj, which erupted into public view with the release of the diss track “ShETHER” this past February, shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
