I loved her darker skin back in the day she was perfect I don’t know why she trying to be white now 

Wanting lighter skin isn’t equal to wanting to be white. At least, I haven’t seen anything of her saying that. She’s still a proud, Black woman. 
 

I too preferred her natural skin tone but hey, I don’t pay her bills lol so I just nod and smile

Kim isn't trying to be white, she's been trying to be Asian for the last 15 years at least

I love Lil’ Kim but her rapping isn’t what I used to love on Notorious, HardCore etc.

Last album she doesn’t sound like it and full of autotune.

Is it because of all the surgeries she had?

It’s because she was working with a different team of writers/collaborators/producers, trying something different. I hope she learned a valuable lesson lol. Her verse on Missy’s “I’m Better” remix tho 🤤

Because our racist and Prejudice society has made being darker skinned, or having African features as socially unacceptable to norms. Same reason african american women relax their hair. Having "straighter" is seen as being more accepeable to white america. You seriously didn't know this?

 

Whew, chile, you Britney fans...

European, African, Latin, and Asian people of all races, all over the world, male and female, chemically straighten their hair to achieve that look. Skin lightening and chemically straightened hair is not exclusive to African Americans.  But like you said, it's a much bigger topic in African American communities because it gives the impression of appeasing to society's racist beauty standards, and Americans are very vocal about everything.

Kims botched surgery is really why people ridicule her. If she looked good, it wouldn't be an issue.
