Thursday Dish

A Twitter feud of sorts took place between rapper Lil Kim and singer Keyshia Cole. It all began when Lil Kim accused the singer of allowing Nicki Minaj to diss her in a track the two recorded together. Cole and Lil Kim went at it for a second before Cole took the high road in the matter. What Cole hasn't been shy about is admitting she's none to pleased with not being nominated for a BET award. Miami rapper Trina also took to Twitter to voice her displeasure with not being nominated in the best female rap category. R&B singer Tank also has issues with BET. He's a bit peeved that BET didn't nominate singer R Kelly in the best R&B male category. The BET Awards will air live on June 26 at 8 p.m. In the meantime, R Kelly is preparing to hit the road with Keyshia Cole this summer. No tour dates and locations have been announced.
