Rapper Lil Kim knows the truth about Biggie. When it comes to substantial portions of Notorious B.I.G.’s life, she lived it alongside of him. Lil Kim was Christopher Wallace’s girlfriend and Wallace mentored her.

However, when Kim screened the new movie “Notorious” (officially opening in theaters this Friday) Kim was not pleased with the way she is being portrayed in this Diddy driven biopic about the life and times of Christopher Wallace.
In a prepared statement, Kim said: “The film studio and producers involved were more concerned about painting me as a ‘character’ to create a more interesting story line instead of a person with talent, self-respect and who was able to achieve her own career success through hard work.”
Christopher Wallace’s mother, Voletta blasted back saying Monday “This is not a Lil Kim movie. … If she’s disappointed and upset, that is her problem.”
Christopher Wallace who was later known as Biggie Smalls, and eventually and until the time of his murder, “Notorious B.I.G.” had co-written and produced many hit rap songs along with Sean Combs (AKA Puff Daddy, AKA, P. Diddy, AKA Diddy.) The music the two made together would be the catalyst to making an empire for Combs, however, Wallace would not live long enough to enjoy the spoils and eventual great success of even his own work. Combs is the “Notorious” executive producer.
