Former 3LW member Naturi and Jamal Woolard revisited Lil Kim and Biggie on the red carpet of Notorious last night in New York. Now, from the clips I’ve seen of Jamal on various sites, I’m not sure he captured BIG’s highly talked about swag. He always came off a bit corny in my opinon but according to my girl Aura over at All That’s Fab, he captured the role like a pro:
Jamal “Gravy” Woodard then took on the role of an adult Biggie, and by the middle of the movie, it felt like I was actually watching the real deal. I was definitely skeptical at first, but he sounded like him when he rhymed, moved like him, and managed to entertain me throughout the whole movie.
Lil’ Kim was no where in sight during the premiere, and clearly you can see why. The movie basically depicted her as being Biggie’s jump off, showed him disrespecting her, etc. “Notorious”, however left out a key part that was mentioned in Faith’s book - the incident when Faith rolls up in the studio and beats Lil’ Kim down. It did, however, show Faith beating up a Biggie groupie in a hotel room, which is what she was definitely known for.
At first I wanted Kim to “go sit down” after hearing all the ruckus she was raising over Naturi playing her in the film and how she was depicted but I do feel like Faith’s side is a bit one-sided. Of course if it was left up to Kim, she’d make it out to be some Bonnie and Clyde love story but he was 1) married 2) seeing plenty of other women including Charli Baltimore and 3) she was just a JUMP OFF. Qui Kim!
