Since this is February I wanted to start off with one of the best loves in Hip hop history.
So we all know the infamous love triangle between The late but great rapper Notorious BIG, longtime on and off girlfriend Lil' Kim and his wife R&B singer Faith Evans.
Did you know that his song "Another" featuring Lil Kim began with an actual argument between the two which was recorded by accident.
In Lil Kim's words it started as an act of attention seeking, at The Hit Factory in New York City while Wallace (Notorious) was recording his Ready to Die album. It was a given that alcohol and drugs were to be there during the recording even women so Jones(Kim) never minded at the time even though this was a time when the on and off relationship was on.
Taking up two studios one for Notorious' Final album "Life After Death" and Lil Kim' "Hardcore" it wasn't out of the ordinary for the two to visit each other throughout recording breaks.
One day Jones went to surprise Wallace but instead found him very affectionate with another girl in the studio without Wallace noticing her. In rage she went back to continue her recording but this time she brings a guy there to accompany her.
It wasn't too long before word had gotten back to Wallace that his Girlfriend had another guy in her studio, thus the intro for his song Another was made. Though the intro only lasts about 20 seconds the fight last way longer and even escalated to physical altercation where Wallace choked Jones in her studio.
