English professor Greg Thomas at Syracuse University taught a class in which the students transliterated Kimberly Denise Jones also known as Lil’  Kim’s “Get Money.” The rapper even made an appearance in the class where she spoke to the students about her journey in the rap business and viewed the student’s presentations.
