“For those who want to make a joke, be my guest,” Tommie Lee explained. “Because that karma that you speak of, when you make jokes like that, I return to sender every time.” The rapper also reflected on fans who joked about her getting jumped in Jamaica, and her public persona as a result of her time on Love & Hip Hop.
