Carlos King Archives - New Hip Hop News

Trina spoke on her legacy during a recent interview with Carlos King, arguing that she feels left out of the debate over the top five female rappers of all time. She explained that she’s influenced most of the artists she sees fans pick for their lists. “I feel like I know what I’ve done and I feel like even your top 5 has been at some point influenced by me,” she said. “I know, or probably even worked with or loved – even idolized. It’s probably somebody I really support and love in the industry.”

When The Neighborhood Talk shared the clip on Instagram, fans had mixed responses to Trina’s take. In the comments section, one user wrote: “No shade we gotta give Trina her flowers. She’s a staple in female rap that doesn’t get enough recognition.” Another countered: “I love Trina, but let’s be real, she is not in the top 5, she may not even be in the top 10 if we are being honest…” Later in the clip, she mentions how she was always nominated at the BET Awards, but rarely won anything.

Elsewhere in the interview, Trina discussed one female rapper who fans often list in their top five, Nicki Minaj. She revealed that she hasn’t spoken to her in a number of years, but she’s happy for the success she’s achieved. “I’m proud, like, you’re deserving of this, like, we watched your first tour, it was great… and now it’s like phenomenal, and you’re just looking at the growth — you just got your son,” Trina said. “…I’m just happy for you, even if you over here and I’m over here, but I’m just happy for you. And I feel like everything that’s happening for her, she deserves.”

Tamar Braxton Says She’s “Embarrassed” By How She Made Her Fiancé Feel

Earlier today, Braxton responded with a lengthy post on her Instagram Story, in which she apologized for hurting JR’s feelings. “When you truly love someone, hurting the person that you love is far worse than being hurt BY the one you love,” she wrote. “I’m new to true love and loving myself. I’m so sorry that it’s you that has to feel the trial and error.“

“I wish for the opportunity to give an apology and be forgiven in it ALL. In relationships, we take being forgiven for granted. It’s a blessing to be able to say I’m sorry and see another day in the war of love in this together. No matter how much I feel like I was right…you felt wronged. And I gotta respect that,” she also added. “I’m not embarrassed for being open about how I feel… I’m embarrassed of how I made you feel, I’m sorry.” What do you think of Tamar Braxton apologizing to JR for her recent interview with Carlos King?
