Lil Kim criticized for suggesting monsoons as solution to LA fires

Lil Kim sparked backlash after expressing her heartfelt condolences to those affected by Los Angeles’ devastating fires because her message of support included a widely criticized, highly unrealistic solution.

Queen Bee’s heart was in the right place, but her post garnered attention for all the wrong reasons.

“#PrayForLA,” King wrote. “Keeping my thoughts and prayers going out to Los Angeles and everyone affected by the fires. This is heartbreaking.

However, her last words sparked backlash, with Lil Kim adding, “I pray to Jesus that God brings a monsoon to LA.”

X (Twitter) users retweeted her post, with one calling it an “instant Hall of Fame tweet” and others questioning whether Lil Kim knew what Monsoon actually was.

“Oops she’s gonna give them a double whammy! Knock them out,” another added, while a third joked, “‘Give ’em more’ is crazy.

Another user sarcastically said: “lil kim thank you so much for blessing LA for another natural disaster.”

The backlash on Instagram was apparently so intense that Lil Kim banned comments.
