Is Lil Kim’s Baby Daddy Dating Foxy Brown…AGAIN?

Mr. Papers, the Brooklyn rapper who shares a daughter with Lil Kim, is now believed to be dating Foxy Brown thanks to an affectionate exchange between the two on social media this weekend.

The rumors began to surface June 14 after Brown tagged Papers in a birthday Instagram post, writing, “Happy birthday. Block spinna 20 years later haaaa.”

In reply, Papers shared the post on his own Instagram Stories, adding, “Daddy love you mama,” followed by drool, heart-eye, fingers crossed, and diamond emojis.

The potential relationship is attention worthy due to Foxy and Kim’s past, as the two Hip-Hop icons have had a long-standing public feud since the late 1990s. As recently as last summer, Foxy seemingly felt the need to take shots at Lil Kim for her “nosebleed seats” at Drake’s It’s All A Blur tour stop at Madison Square Garden.

If speculation is accurate, it would a rekindling of their relationship, as Mr. Papers revealed in a 2019 interview that he dated Foxy Brown when he was just 16 years old. This would’ve made Brown 26 years old at the time of their tryst.

“I was f**king Foxy…we was fornicating,” the rapper admitted on Sway In The Morning. “We was fornicating, me and Foxy, that was my girl, I was f**kin Foxy Brown, that was my girl, though. But I was like, 16, so I was young. I turned 17 a couple weeks after I met her.

“Funny, I never told Kim that,” he also confessed. After being asked if Foxy would deny his claims, he added, “No, salute to Foxy, she’s a strong girl. Kim is the strongest, but you know, Foxy was dope, but I was young.” Hear for yourself below.

VIBE has reached out to Brown for comment on Mr. Paper’s claims.

Whether or not rumors of reconciliation are true, it likely won’t affect the Queen Bee, as she’s seemingly moved on to budding rap artist Tayy Brown. Within an April clip of the pair showcasing custom Adidas gear, Kim can be heard calling the young artist “bae.” She also dropped a heartfelt birthday message for Brown in February, where she spoke of their bond and “unconditional love.”

“Our bond is so perfectly matched in the most organic way. I know it was God that brought us together,” she wrote. “If people only knew how big of a role you play in my life and my career. You are my motivation and the voice always cheering me on. You’re so intelligent and such a boss.”

She went on, “It’s so weird how we became so close because it happened out of nowhere but I’m really proud of what we’re building and most of all the unconditional love we have for each other. Ur a sweet gangsta and I love it! I always want the best for u and I wanna see u go all the way to the top where u belong. U deserve it. My twinn, my bestfrennn. So proud to call u my artist. I Love u 4 Ever @realtayybrown.”

Lil Kim and Mr. Papers welcomed daughter, Royal Reign, June 9, 2004. Now 10 years old, mom Kim recently shared mother-daughter snaps of her with her “twin” on Instagram.
