As of Friday, Jan. 17, the devastating fires in Los Angeles have claimed 25 lives.

Lil’ Kim has sparked controversy over her comments about the ongoing tragedy. On Tuesday, Jan. 14, the rapper took to X to express her prayers for those impacted by the fires, writing, “Sending strong prayers for LA and everyone affected by the fires. This is heartbreaking. I pray to Jesus that God make it monsoon in LA.”

Her statement drew mixed reactions online, with many fans criticizing her suggestion of a monsoon as a solution. Some argued that heavy rain could worsen the situation by causing mudslides and flooding.

Two days later, Lil’ Kim defended her comment, explaining, “What LA really needs right now is rain—so what’s the issue? Doesn’t everyone understand that a monsoon is heavy rain?” She urged fans to keep praying and supporting those in need.

Despite her clarification, fans remained divided. Some acknowledged her good intentions but pointed out the potential harm of a monsoon in the current conditions. Others suggested her words were misinformed.

Lil’ Kim later shared a definition of a monsoon to clarify her meaning, asking, “For anyone that’s confused. Any questions?” She has not made additional comments since.
