How Little Are 'Lil' Rappers And Non-Lil Rappers?

In hip-hop bigger is better. Big rims, big-faced Rollies, big stacks of cash, and big jewels. One of the few exceptions to that rule is in rappers' names. Using the prefix "Lil" in a rapper's name has been a popular habit in hip-hop for some time now. BuzzFeed decided to dig around and see just how little these Lil rappers are and the results were surprising. Sure, Bow Wow and Romeo ditched the Lil after outgrowing the term because of their age, and Lil Kim would probably have trouble meeting the height requirements on some roller coasters.

But we see you, “Lil” Flip.

Look at these shorties! And this isn’t even all of them!

These emcees are short and proud of it, and we applaud them for not feeling like they have to have their identity forever tied to their height or their age!
