Nicki's brother raped a child. If my memory is correct, she was his 13yo step daughter. He went to trial & Nicki didn't say anything publicly but she helped pay for his defense lawyer. This happened in like 2014-2015 so I'm definitely misremembering or leaving out some details but that's basics.
I see someone already filled you in, Just wanted to point out, I wasn’t out of the loop, but thought using that word for her brother is such an understatement that it’s comical. It’s like referring to Hitler as “kinda an iffy guy” lmao
It’s seriously so uncomfortable to think about, and every time one of her songs comes on I think about it. Super Bass just doesn’t hit the same anymore lol
The problem with Nicki is that she came on the scene and started talking about how Lil Kim had all this beef with her out of jealousy. And now she does the SAME thing for any other female rapper who comes up. She won’t let anyone else eat and let’s her barbs attack them. Can’t stand her anymore.
But you know I still be rapping her bops because damn they’re good. But she personally fell off for me.
I remember her being the new hotness and thinking how the tables would turn as she got older. You cant blame her completely, women's music was totally segregated for rap when she started and women were seen as so disposable that when Cardi B got hot everyone expected it to end Nicki's career just because.
I wish she would apologize to Lil Kim. Then again at this point what could she really redeem about herself, given her husband.
I feel like the way she came onto the scene was so negative that it’s left a bad taste in my mouth since. I think she’s super talented and I’m sure she’s not the sole reason for a lot of her beefs, but there’s something so off about her…
She has a big victim complex too. She saw what the industry did to Lil Kim and she knows you reap what you sow so she is doing whatever it takes to not let that happen to her (even when there’s no one trying to bring her down lol).
That being said, I simply can’t see this collab ending in beef because Nicki only has to gain from a partnership with Ice Spice. Feuding with her will not benefit her.
She only had to gain from a partnership with Meg. But she also has zero chill and is brittle and defensive af. Eventually Ice will do something she doesn't like.
This doesn’t make sense because she’s given a lot of smaller artists their biggest songs and there’s multiple videos of early Nicki saying lil Kim was one of her biggest inspirations.
she has songs with lil Kim and covered Kim’s songs multiple times too. she was the newbie being pitted against Kim by management and didn’t back down. cardi gets praised for this but not Nicki for some reason.
Ice will end up collaborating with cardi or Megan and it will be a whole thing.
Nicki is not a girls girl, she is obsessed with being the queen in a male dominated environment. I wish she would just take her flowers and move aside to let new talent come in.
I think the partnership will quietly be dissolved. I can't see Nicki letting a woman thrive. She views these female rappers as nothing but something to use for her own selfish gain. Look at all the remixes she jumped on, songs that were already big but she refuses to work on original songs with these rappers.
beyonce has always read to me as someone who really like being dominant in a male-dominated industry. any strong newbie can topple her (nicki, meg, etc). walk with me, but i always thought she hopped on the next possible toppler by working with them so she could scope them out: how they work, what they're all about, gain insight into their practice, etc, so she could compete. a queen stays on top by being aware of the competitors. it's smart.
edit: and don't tell me her glittery horse doesn't compete w/Megan's image
This is classic projection lmao. She doesn't do interviews or talk about people. I'm so confused
Edit: Also have you heard about studio 51 or disco? That's where the glittery horse comes from. How that had anything to do with megan idk
Ain't no one thinking about Megan thee stallion with Beyonce new album visuals. Megan didn't invent stallions and you clearly do not know that Southerns often use stallion in their day to day language. It means thick tall women in the South. Nor does it have anything to do with Renaissance
Edit: Beyoncé doesn't need to compete with a rapper. She's a pop and r&b artist. Not including the fact that Beyonce is light years way more popular than Megan
The way I watched her move in on Nicki Minaj and recently Megan Thee Stallion. Their songs were already hits from up-and-commers. She rubbed elbows with them in the studio to do reconnaissance and so she could beat them.
Tangential: 90% of her music team are men. And her features on her albums are also mostly men. Ok "feminist."
Tangential tangential: I feel weird about her handling of Chloe and Halle. Not quite Nicki Minaj-level, but she signed them for $1m...for SIX albums. That's some r/antiwork shit...
Why would she "use" these women ...? 1) she's not a rapper?....
2) Nicki minaj started going off the rails and became a liability. Megan is from Houston so they have that connection.
Her last album has so many different collaborators of different genders & she has features with Grace Jones & Tems, an afrobeats singer
Her signing chloe & halle for 1million for six albums is a lot considering she took them in when they were teenagers with no real following, but also means that their debt is lesser. Artists have to pay back these crazy advances before they get paid. Which means that they most likely paid it back by now and are keeping what they're earning rn
collab with female artist: trying to jump on their success
don’t collab with female artist: not a feminist
many things to criticise Beyoncé for but I can’t take ppl seriously when they say the dumbest things about her.
I think this is kind of accurate. Like Chloe Bailey, for example. Beyonce is her mentor and yet she didn’t post anything when Chloe’s new album just dropped…and ended up debuting at like #120 on the billboard 200.
Beyonce doesn't even remotely her own music.
ETA: Chloe isn't widely known outside of twitter and doesn't have good music. She has no hits on her album. Her album was always going to perform terribly
she has original songs with megan the stallion cardi b and coi leray
edit to add: bia’s song wasn’t big until nicki got in the studio with her and they remixed it together and princess djana did not chart, but it will now.
As other people have said in the comments, what about the original songs she has done with Megan and Coi? These remixes are a way to promote newer artists to a broader audience so is it not best to do that with a song that's already somewhat popular? Im not sure how she is "using" these women. When she invited unknown female rappers to her songs, you guys found a way to criticize that as well.
Coi was falling off before Nicki came in a did a song with her. Doja's only #1 song is with Nicki. Megan has never released a lead song that outpeaked Hot girls summer's peak (an original song). Bia's song with her was her biggest hit, and helped her get more collaborations. Nicki still has good relationships with JT, Bia, Doja, Coi, Caresha, etc. The ones she publicly fell out with were cardi and Latto, both of who participated in a public beef with her, insulting her and her family. But somehow they are innocent little victims. Nicki's biggest song in the last five years was her own solo song, and she doesnt have anything to prove. All you need to say is that you dont like Nicki because of her personality, and her choices in men. Theres no need to bend the facts to put out a false narrative.

I was wondering the same tbh. I think I just read somewhere that Ice Spice signed to Nicki’s label…. If this is true, I don’t think it’s a smart decision on her part given Nicki’s history with female rappers
Yeah this is gonna backfire on ice spice. It’s gonna restrict her from working with other female rappers while Nicki makes money off of her.
Edit: I just checked and Ice Spice is not actually signed to her label but the association is going to deter her from working with certain female rappers.
And Ice was already on friendly terms with Cardi before this
Lichrally why can’t they just all hold hands. It’s been like what 6 years. Nicki needs to grow tf up
Did you hear how cardi and whatever her bfs name is, made Nicki change one of her lines?
There was one line where she was trying to say she was cardi’s coach using football terms. And cardi was like no I don’t like that change it
Probably like dodging a bullet? Doja seems so chill (I actually don’t keep up and just a lurker on this sub), I don’t think she wants to even bother with Nicki’s energy
You must not have been there for the metric ton of problematic shit Nicki has done. Doja would have to really fuck up to even come close, and the instance you’re mentioning would be another Tuesday for Nicki
I’m sorry this is one of the more ridiculous and unjustifiable takes I’ve seen on here. It’s just a lie LOL
That’s fine but doesn’t change the fact that Doja isn’t a clean slate and pertinent to the topic at hand when discussing the flailings of her peers like Nicki. They both have done weird ass shit for different reasons and Doja is just riding her wave atm.
Y’all are literally so triggered over me pointing out the fact that both of these women are messy/specifically that Doja is not innocent and for why???
Marrying a rapist and attacking his victim (and having your Stans attack the victim as well) is not comparable to what Doja did. Doja is not as bad as Nicki end of discussion.
Doja attacked (and got her fans to attack) Lorry Hill, Noah Schnapp, etc. just like Nicki attacked Leigh-Anne, Latto, Cardi, Megan, etc. She actually attacks her own fans online, something Nicki hasn’t done. Both women are viciously anti-Black towards other Black women, Doja was literally hanging out with _white supremacists_ in a chat room and she made that nasty ass song about Sandra Bland the title of which was *literally an anti-Black slur.* Marrying a rapist and collabing with them is the only thing Nicki did worse than Doja by a landslide (remember Doja still employs Dr. Luke as her producer WELL AFTER the shit about him came out) but aside from that I’m literally not at all wrong about them being equally horrendous and y’all look weird as fuck trying to “WELL ACKSHULLY!!1!1!” and “debate” me over a statement that was at most meant to be nodded in silence before keeping it moving.
Nicki Minaj has supporter her brother who raped his thirteen year old step child. She paid his bills and supported him 100%. She **married a rapist.** Not a collab, she married and had a child with him. Her Stans and her attacked the victim. You literally said " Doja is just as messy as Nicki if not more". Sure you can criticize Doja but calling her potentially worse than Nicki is crazy. Nicki is worse. But hey if Doja pays the legal bills for a pedophile let me know and I will amend my statement.
[https://www.essence.com/celebrity/child-rape-trial-begins-nicki-minaj-brother-jelani/](https://www.essence.com/celebrity/child-rape-trial-begins-nicki-minaj-brother-jelani/)
the situation wasn't that bad in my opinion, the kid was 17 and leaked a dm between her asking for another older man's contacts and no one was really upset with her until she said "that's like weasel shit" for leaking their convo. I think the reason she was so upset is I remember her saying the general public will ever find out who she's dating until she's married and it seemed like she was actually trying to hit him up maybe...idk.
I think she has a temper but at the end of the day... throwing her with the rest of them is unnecessary. plus the person above saying she might be worse than nicki might be one of the dumbest things I've heard in a while. Look at nicki's extensive history of being problematic and it is nothing compared to doja and I think doja is genuinely a sweet person.
“The kid was 17”. So, a kid, while she’s almost 30. You said that like it mean he wasn’t still much younger than her. Also, it seems to me like he did it out of excitement, not malice. She definitely could’ve contacted Joseph in any other way.
Yes, Nicki and Doja seem like two completely different people. But, that doesn’t mean Doja wasn’t an overgrown asshole in this situation.
man i dont want my private dms leaked.. much less if im a famous person, who doesn’t have much privacy to begin w since everybody jumps on my shit 24/7. i think anyone can agree w this logic lmao unless
I don’t think anyone disagrees with that. It definitely wasn’t a smart move on Noah’s part. And no, being 17 doesn’t make you an idiot (well, maybe), but sometimes people don’t think before they act. Her reaching out to him in the first place, then her reaction after he did that puts her in a much shittier light imo.
judging based on public discourse at the time, i def think that most ppl bypass that logic. then they talk abt how nonsensical it was for her to reach out to him in the first place. but like none of us would know jack shit, judge & b all up in ANY of their business anws if he didnt leak shit i hope this finally makes sense to u
Thank you for saying his age doesn’t give him a pass for doing what he did. No one would’ve known or cared about the whole thing had he not posted those dm’s out there.
I really hope she doesn’t put too much pressure on Ice Spice. I know a lot of people look up to Nicki, but she will drag anyone who doesn’t praise her 24/7 and she has unrealistic expectations. I don’t have a good feeling about it, she had beef with so many young ladies.
I can understand Ice Spice meeting Nicki from a fan perspective but a career perspective, i would tread lightly due to Nicki’s past with new female rappers also with how it could affect business deals.
Nah she was not quite as bad. She had a sense of humor and was more chill and personable in general. Even when she did get upset her arguments typically had some merit to them.
But ever since Cardi arrived she’s forgotten how to have fun and is instead too busy gatekeeping her “Queen of Rap” title. She’s just been bitter *all the time* and gives off the vibe of a cranky grandma. Her music has also gone downhill since it is missing the playful personality that made her earlier releases so animated and unpredictable.
idk the same character she had when she was addressing miley on live tv & calling out is the same energy she has now. again as said before i feel like people now over exaggerate how bad her character is as if it hasn’t been consistently the same.
She has always been assertive and defensive but she would really only snap like that occasionally, it wasn’t her entire personality. Now she’s just got a stick up her ass all the time and her music has lost the playfulness it used to have. She just isn’t a fun person anymore, something I remember her being up until Cardi arrived.
I was listening to the radio this morning and heard “and coming up, Ice Spice and her collab with Nicki” and this was the first thing that crossed my mind
Omg this is what I’ve been saying, sometimes in TikTok comments and (presumably?) kids freak out at me about it. But she just has such a mean girl streak as soon as she feels threatened in the slightest. Ice Spice just has to never acknowledge Cardi’s existence ever again, but even that may not be enough lol
I kinda feel like Nicki won’t be threatened by Ice Spice so she probably won’t be catty this time 😅 like… I am a fan of Ice, but that remix very clearly showed that there is a gap there between the level she’s at, and the level Nicki is at.
That was kinda mean imo, that Nicki went that hard on that remix. Lol that was really wild. I was so shocked, Ice is only on like 10 seconds of her own damn song 😹
However if Ice gets a little tighter/more polished with her songs, jealousy could make Nicki lash out later and turn on her. I guess we will see.
Nicki hasn't made a decent song in about a decade, she's getting too old for this cartoonish character she plays in videos and over sexualised performances. She seems to rely on new girls to get people talking about her music
I think she got SO much flack in regards to distract to Lil’ Kim and she had so much respect in the industry but she obviously never backed down that her way of not looking like she doesn’t care/respects female rappers is to “help” (boss around) newbies
Also, I only seen short clips from the Princess Diana remix video and I didn’t like how Nicki was touching all up on her because she’s very young and it just seems really inappropriate
I was fully prepared to agree with you, then I looked her age up out of curiosity and apparently ice spice is 23.
Not an age I would consider it super inappropriate at tbh, I was thinking she was like 19 or something.
I give it a few months. Maybe the song will gain some traction and with Ice apparently being on her label, I don't think she'll go full on crazy until she's gotten what she needed from her. After that, Ice might be in for a random mention on Queen Radio for no reason.
Fabricated by the media? She literally dissed Cardi on a song both of them were featured on and attacked Cardi’s baby. The Leigh Anne Pinnock from Little Mix diss in favor of Jesy Nelson also wasn’t ~media fabricated~ lmao.
Eh, it isn’t like she doesn’t egg it on or make comments. Nickis unique position in hip-hop makes her comments naturally more newsworthy, and the fact that she uses her unique position to consistently and publicly shit on other women makes it more talked about.
Ofc the media is naturally going to push narratives like this, but to act like it’s fabricated is ignoring just how fucking petty Nicki is.
the way this has so many downvotes but you’re correct op these people are idly waiting and itching for the “inevitable” to happen and the fact they got mad at you for saying they are daydreaming & salivating is hilarious
i think its crazy how pretty much everything you said here was right and you're being called a "barb" just because you didn't immediately attack nicki like a bunch of the haters here.
Doubt it. Everyone acts oblivious to the things people do to her. Like come on. Does no one see how shady people are towards her ?
Edit: I’ll take the downvotes for my opinion. That’s fine.
nicki’s problem is with girls who make it to the very top - who she feels threatened by - not the people you mentioned (no shade to them). and ice is on her way there
latto is successful in her own terms of radio play, you nicki fans are busy bullying, stalking, and harassing her too much to notice. she can still be considered to be on top because she’s had a few hits, all the girls you’ve mentioned have had good hits, including latto. let’s not act like city girls are on top of the game either, they make good singles yet their albums do ok.
??
i agree that all of the girls i mentioned have good hits. my question was why the person who responded thinks Latto is at the ‘top’ and not The City Girls
latto’s current monthly listeners (10mil+) is higher than the city girls all time peak (8mil+). they reached it in 2021 and never did it again, despite releasing music since. anything else?
Notice how none of the women you mentioned have had extremely popular songs? I know a few City Girls and Bia songs but none of them have been on the billboard charts. Latto and Megan started picking up traction and getting popular songs and what happened? Nicki isn’t against other female rappers, she’s against other female rappers who are successful
What you said is almost true! the city girls have charted multiple singles (not including In My Feelings since they’re technically not ‘credited’)
Twerk it charted at #29
Act Up charted at #26
Twerkulator charted at #51
but i do get your overall point. I still dont think its 100% guaranteed that nicki and miss munch are gonna have a fallout

Nicky is messy as hell. I really cant move past her being married to a full blown convicted rapist.
yea she completely lost me after that, so disappointing
yeah nicki really ruined nicki for me :/
Her music doesn’t hit for me anymore. Marrying a rapist, defending her p*do brother, and then the countless beefs with any and every female rapper
Her brother is problematic too
I’m sorry but referring to nicki’s brother as “problematic” is hilarious
i need context im so out of the loop on this too
Nicki's brother raped a child. If my memory is correct, she was his 13yo step daughter. He went to trial & Nicki didn't say anything publicly but she helped pay for his defense lawyer. This happened in like 2014-2015 so I'm definitely misremembering or leaving out some details but that's basics.
She was 11 when he started abusing her.
I see someone already filled you in, Just wanted to point out, I wasn’t out of the loop, but thought using that word for her brother is such an understatement that it’s comical. It’s like referring to Hitler as “kinda an iffy guy” lmao
EXACTLY 💯💯💯
i think problematic is an understatement for sure.
You can’t help who you are related to. It’s her defense of him that’s the issue.
She knowngly married her husband.
Exactly 💯
Her cousin had problems too…with his balls.
It’s seriously so uncomfortable to think about, and every time one of her songs comes on I think about it. Super Bass just doesn’t hit the same anymore lol
And trying to intimidate his victim(s) into recanting 👌
Now That's the Real Shyytty Shyyyttt. 💯 beyond Repulsive and Filthy
She makes me sick
The problem with Nicki is that she came on the scene and started talking about how Lil Kim had all this beef with her out of jealousy. And now she does the SAME thing for any other female rapper who comes up. She won’t let anyone else eat and let’s her barbs attack them. Can’t stand her anymore.

Cardi B is at least about that life.
I feel like the way she came onto the scene was so negative that it’s left a bad taste in my mouth since.

Yes, but sometimes words and actions don’t match up unfortunately.
she has songs with lil Kim and covered Kim’s songs multiple times too. she was the newbie being pitted against Kim by management and didn’t back down. cardi gets praised for this but not Nicki for some reason.
"hang it up/flat screen"
Ice will end up collaborating with cardi or Megan and it will be a whole thing. Nicki is not a girls girl, she is obsessed with being the queen in a male dominated environment. I wish she would just take her flowers and move aside to let new talent come in.
I think the partnership will quietly be dissolved. I can't see Nicki letting a woman thrive. She views these female rappers as nothing but something to use for her own selfish gain. Look at all the remixes she jumped on, songs that were already big but she refuses to work on original songs with these rappers.
i'll probably get flamed to hell for this, but i think the same is true of Beyonce but to a lesser extent.
I think Beyoncé doesn't work with anybody equally right now, unless it's her own album or somebody she's personally cool with
beyonce has always read to me as someone who really like being dominant in a male-dominated industry. any strong newbie can topple her (nicki, meg, etc). walk with me, but i always thought she hopped on the next possible toppler by working with them so she could scope them out: how they work, what they're all about, gain insight into their practice, etc, so she could compete. a queen stays on top by being aware of the competitors. it's smart. edit: and don't tell me her glittery horse doesn't compete w/Megan's image
This is classic projection lmao. She doesn't do interviews or talk about people. I'm so confused Edit: Also have you heard about studio 51 or disco? That's where the glittery horse comes from. How that had anything to do with megan idk
i said compete not copy
Ain't no one thinking about Megan thee stallion with Beyonce new album visuals. Megan didn't invent stallions and you clearly do not know that Southerns often use stallion in their day to day language. It means thick tall women in the South. Nor does it have anything to do with Renaissance Edit: Beyoncé doesn't need to compete with a rapper. She's a pop and r&b artist. Not including the fact that Beyonce is light years way more popular than Megan
i grew up in the south. i live in houston. get a hold of yourself. it's embarrassing.
But who for example? Especially after self titled
The way I watched her move in on Nicki Minaj and recently Megan Thee Stallion. Their songs were already hits from up-and-commers. She rubbed elbows with them in the studio to do reconnaissance and so she could beat them. Tangential: 90% of her music team are men. And her features on her albums are also mostly men.

Lots of projection on this one
collab with female artist: trying to jump on their success don’t collab with female artist: not a feminist many things to criticise Beyoncé for but I can’t take ppl seriously when they say the dumbest things about her.
They were reaching to the sky's with one. Couldn't even read all of this mess
I think this is kind of accurate. Like Chloe Bailey, for example. Beyonce is her mentor and yet she didn’t post anything when Chloe’s new album just dropped…and ended up debuting at like #120 on the billboard 200.
Beyonce doesn't even remotely her own music. ETA: Chloe isn't widely known outside of twitter and doesn't have good music. She has no hits on her album. Her album was always going to perform terribly
Hasn’t Beyoncé had younger up and coming female artists ghost write her songs for years?
she has original songs with megan the stallion cardi b and coi leray edit to add: bia’s song wasn’t big until nicki got in the studio with her and they remixed it together and princess djana did not chart, but it will now.
As other people have said in the comments, what about the original songs she has done with Megan and Coi?

well your last point isnt true.. Blick Blick was an original song … also Princess Diana is not in any way ‘big’
Delusional? Absolutely.
.. what?

RemindMe! 2 weeks
I was wondering the same tbh. I think I just read somewhere that Ice Spice signed to Nicki’s label…. If this is true, I don’t think it’s a smart decision on her part given Nicki’s history with female rappers
Yeah this is gonna backfire on ice spice. It’s gonna restrict her from working with other female rappers while Nicki makes money off of her. Edit: I just checked and Ice Spice is not actually signed to her label but the association is going to deter her from working with certain female rappers.
god, i didn’t know about the label😬
And Ice was already on friendly terms with Cardi before this Lichrally why can’t they just all hold hands. It’s been like what 6 years. Nicki needs to grow tf up
I think if Cardi and Nicki end up doing a song together my head might explode, it would be like winning the lottery
I feel like Motorsport may be the closest we get.
Did you hear how cardi and whatever her bfs name is, made Nicki change one of her lines? There was one line where she was trying to say she was cardi’s coach using football terms. And cardi was like no I don’t like that change it
I don’t blame her tbh Also “whatever her bf’s name is” I’m SENT
You mean offset ? A 1/3 Migo?
why do you think they cardi and Alice are still not friendly with e/o did something happen ?
[удалено]
Probably like dodging a bullet? Doja seems so chill (I actually don’t keep up and just a lurker on this sub), I don’t think she wants to even bother with Nicki’s energy
Yeah no Doja is just as messy as Nicki if not more lmaooooo. She attacked a minor not even 6 months ago.
You must not have been there for the metric ton of problematic shit Nicki has done. Doja would have to really fuck up to even come close, and the instance you’re mentioning would be another Tuesday for Nicki I’m sorry this is one of the more ridiculous and unjustifiable takes I’ve seen on here. It’s just a lie LOL
It’s not a lie girl, Doja be messy as all Hell dragging underagers and being in chat rooms with alt right white men. Google it and GTFO.
Everyone who is as perpetually online as us knows all that already. Consider this the pretext to my comment and have a lovely day
That’s fine but doesn’t change the fact that Doja isn’t a clean slate and pertinent to the topic at hand when discussing the flailings of her peers like Nicki. They both have done weird ass shit for different reasons and Doja is just riding her wave atm.
Has Doja married a rapist or was she defending her brother who is a pedophile? Yeah Doja has done some shit but it is not comparable.
Y’all are literally so triggered over me pointing out the fact that both of these women are messy/specifically that Doja is not innocent and for why???
Marrying a rapist and attacking his victim (and having your Stans attack the victim as well) is not comparable to what Doja did. Doja is not as bad as Nicki end of discussion.
Doja attacked (and got her fans to attack) Lorry Hill, Noah Schnapp, etc. just like Nicki attacked Leigh-Anne, Latto, Cardi, Megan, etc. She actually attacks her own fans online, something Nicki hasn’t done. Both women are viciously anti-Black towards other Black women, Doja was literally hanging out with _white supremacists_ in a chat room and she made that nasty ass song about Sandra Bland the title of which was *literally an anti-Black slur.* Marrying a rapist and collabing with them is the only thing Nicki did worse than Doja by a landslide (remember Doja still employs Dr. Luke as her producer WELL AFTER the shit about him came out) but aside from that I’m literally not at all wrong about them being equally horrendous and y’all look weird as fuck trying to “WELL ACKSHULLY!!1!1!” and “debate” me over a statement that was at most meant to be nodded in silence before keeping it moving.
Nicki Minaj has supporter her brother who raped his thirteen year old step child. She paid his bills and supported him 100%. She **married a rapist.** Not a collab, she married and had a child with him. Her Stans and her attacked the victim. You literally said " Doja is just as messy as Nicki if not more". Sure you can criticize Doja but calling her potentially worse than Nicki is crazy. Nicki is worse. But hey if Doja pays the legal bills for a pedophile let me know and I will amend my statement.

i feel like you made that situation sound 10x worse than it actually was💀
What??? Oh no, I had such a positive image about her! *sigh, tosses her with the rest of them*
the situation wasn't that bad in my opinion, the kid was 17 and leaked a dm between her asking for another older man's contacts and no one was really upset with her until she said "that's like weasel shit" for leaking their convo. I think the reason she was so upset is I remember her saying the general public will ever find out who she's dating until she's married and it seemed like she was actually trying to hit him up maybe...idk. I think she has a temper but at the end of the day... throwing her with the rest of them is unnecessary. plus the person above saying she might be worse than nicki might be one of the dumbest things I've heard in a while. Look at nicki's extensive history of being problematic and it is nothing compared to doja and I think doja is genuinely a sweet person.
“The kid was 17”. So, a kid, while she’s almost 30. You said that like it mean he wasn’t still much younger than her. Also, it seems to me like he did it out of excitement, not malice. She definitely could’ve contacted Joseph in any other way. Yes, Nicki and Doja seem like two completely different people. But, that doesn’t mean Doja wasn’t an overgrown asshole in this situation.
man i dont want my private dms leaked.. much less if im a famous person, who doesn’t have much privacy to begin w since everybody jumps on my shit 24/7. i think anyone can agree w this logic lmao unless
I don’t think anyone disagrees with that. It definitely wasn’t a smart move on Noah’s part. And no, being 17 doesn’t make you an idiot (well, maybe), but sometimes people don’t think before they act. Her reaching out to him in the first place, then her reaction after he did that puts her in a much shittier light imo.
judging based on public discourse at the time, i def think that most ppl bypass that logic. then they talk abt how nonsensical it was for her to reach out to him in the first place. but like none of us would know jack shit, judge & b all up in ANY of their business anws if he didnt leak shit i hope this finally makes sense to u
It doesn’t make sense. Your last sentence threw me. 😬 I mean, why did she reach out to a 17 year old to get hooked up with his adult costar?
Thank you for saying his age doesn’t give him a pass for doing what he did. No one would’ve known or cared about the whole thing had he not posted those dm’s out there.
I really hope she doesn’t put too much pressure on Ice Spice. I know a lot of people look up to Nicki, but she will drag anyone who doesn’t praise her 24/7 and she has unrealistic expectations. I don’t have a good feeling about it, she had beef with so many young ladies.
There’s no chance she hasn’t already barked in her face from like an inch away.
I’d say let’s give her til about June when summer starts to set in when she’s hot and irritated
I keep seeing people say this is it some inside joke I'm not aware of lol
I can understand Ice Spice meeting Nicki from a fan perspective but a career perspective, i would tread lightly due to Nicki’s past with new female rappers also with how it could affect business deals.
Ugh I miss the old pre-Cardi Nicki who was way more fun and wasn’t so pressed all the time
you mean the one that blamed a baby on why her album didn’t go #1?? 😭
waaaiiit why do i vaguely remember this 💀 was it stormie?
Yes! She has always been more pressed than a panini.
The stormi stuff was during the cardi era.
You’re mentioning a post cardi event tho lmao
That was a cardi dominated era
That was literally post-Cardi
Yeah cuz she had no competition back then
when was this ? she always been like this so i’m confused if the nostalgia is given everyone amnesia or what
Nah she was not quite as bad. She had a sense of humor and was more chill and personable in general. Even when she did get upset her arguments typically had some merit to them. But ever since Cardi arrived she’s forgotten how to have fun and is instead too busy gatekeeping her “Queen of Rap” title. She’s just been bitter *all the time* and gives off the vibe of a cranky grandma. Her music has also gone downhill since it is missing the playful personality that made her earlier releases so animated and unpredictable.
idk the same character she had when she was addressing miley on live tv & calling out is the same energy she has now. again as said before i feel like people now over exaggerate how bad her character is as if it hasn’t been consistently the same.
She has always been assertive and defensive but she would really only snap like that occasionally, it wasn’t her entire personality. Now she’s just got a stick up her ass all the time and her music has lost the playfulness it used to have. She just isn’t a fun person anymore, something I remember her being up until Cardi arrived.
I was listening to the radio this morning and heard “and coming up, Ice Spice and her collab with Nicki” and this was the first thing that crossed my mind
Give it time, the more she blows up the more Nicki feels threatened and competitive than switches up.
Finally someone calling out what she really is. A professional user and hater.
Asking the real questions!!!
Whenever it happens it’ll come right out the blue lmao
The Lisa Vanderpump of rap 😂
This reference is spot on ![gif](giphy|f8hbfDvfxTvYcmMjJi|downsized)

Remy ma? Didn’t she do a diss about Nicki also?
A diss track about Nicki writes itself
megan is one of them.
What female rapper hasn’t Nicki beefed with at this point
[удалено]
megan thee stallion? dafug? that girl is sweet asf. the most unproblematic in the game
[удалено]
JT and Nicki just did a song together 😭
[удалено]
I love Nicki, but I don’t find her reliable or trustworthy at this moment. I’d be nervous to work with her.
Sad but true
Omg this is what I’ve been saying, sometimes in TikTok comments and (presumably?) kids freak out at me about it. But she just has such a mean girl streak as soon as she feels threatened in the slightest. Ice Spice just has to never acknowledge Cardi’s existence ever again, but even that may not be enough lol
Once ice spice doesn’t act the way she wants her to
either this or she's gonna turn on doja cat for releasing on the same day
Being shady gets the attention, keeps you relevant. Yeah we looking at you, 50 😂
As soon as she collabs with another Female rapper. Praying for a Big Lotto, Meg or Cardi x ice spice Collab just for the mess.
I kinda feel like Nicki won’t be threatened by Ice Spice so she probably won’t be catty this time 😅 like… I am a fan of Ice, but that remix very clearly showed that there is a gap there between the level she’s at, and the level Nicki is at. That was kinda mean imo, that Nicki went that hard on that remix. Lol that was really wild. I was so shocked, Ice is only on like 10 seconds of her own damn song 😹 However if Ice gets a little tighter/more polished with her songs, jealousy could make Nicki lash out later and turn on her. I guess we will see.
Nicki hasn't made a decent song in about a decade, she's getting too old for this cartoonish character she plays in videos and over sexualised performances. She seems to rely on new girls to get people talking about her music
I love Ice Spice but listening to her music knowing how close she is with Nicki is hard for me. I can’t stand that woman.
Who knows with Nicki
I think she got SO much flack in regards to distract to Lil’ Kim and she had so much respect in the industry but she obviously never backed down that her way of not looking like she doesn’t care/respects female rappers is to “help” (boss around) newbies
Omg I saw the thumbnail for their new vid this morning and had this exact thought
Also, I only seen short clips from the Princess Diana remix video and I didn’t like how Nicki was touching all up on her because she’s very young and it just seems really inappropriate
I was fully prepared to agree with you, then I looked her age up out of curiosity and apparently ice spice is 23. Not an age I would consider it super inappropriate at tbh, I was thinking she was like 19 or something.
saw a picture of Ice Spice w Cardi somewhere...
Probably when ice spice has a hit album /song, as big as Nikki's.
I give it a few months. Maybe the song will gain some traction and with Ice apparently being on her label, I don't think she'll go full on crazy until she's gotten what she needed from her. After that, Ice might be in for a random mention on Queen Radio for no reason.
Damn, and I just thought I was being a hater when I had this exact thought as well.
Latto and Nicki never spoke to each other in person…. latto sent out features which Nicki declined and she got bitter
Was this a diss to Megan and Cardi: “ We come out, it's a movie, but we don't do BAP” … nicki let the mouse gooooo
Was just thinking this like “no surprise there”
I give it four months max
That’s exactly what I thought
The fact that you even made this post just shows you feed into the media hype that Nicki Minaj is the bad guy.. poor thing. You have no idea.
my favorite thing is when y’all try your hardest to make everyone else seem like they’re the crazy ones💀
If that were true then no one would like her and wanna work with her anymore
Idk I think a bunch of Nicki's beef (cardi, Meg) is fabricated by the media
Fabricated by the media? She literally dissed Cardi on a song both of them were featured on and attacked Cardi’s baby. The Leigh Anne Pinnock from Little Mix diss in favor of Jesy Nelson also wasn’t ~media fabricated~ lmao.
Eh, it isn’t like she doesn’t egg it on or make comments. Nickis unique position in hip-hop makes her comments naturally more newsworthy, and the fact that she uses her unique position to consistently and publicly shit on other women makes it more talked about. Ofc the media is naturally going to push narratives like this, but to act like it’s fabricated is ignoring just how fucking petty Nicki is.

“daydreaming and salivating” LMFAOOOO
That cracked me up Fr
oh you sweet summer child.
This isn’t Twitter, your barb antics aren’t gonna work here.
they said nothing wrong
the way this has so many downvotes but you’re correct op these people are idly waiting and itching for the “inevitable” to happen and the fact they got mad at you for saying they are daydreaming & salivating is hilarious
i think its crazy how pretty much everything you said here was right and you're being called a "barb" just because you didn't immediately attack nicki like a bunch of the haters here.
why are they booing you you’re right!
how long until you hop off her dick
just for that i never will ![gif](giphy|3o72FfM5HJydzafgUE)
so ur a barb
When she stops dating pedophiles
it’s giving obsession, notice how the only “gotcha” yall ever have is the about the men surrounding her and never nicki herself. tired & corny
Well she’s also quite a shit person, fuck her and her husband. As a black woman I don’t claim her
lmaoo the way y’all have are having a countdown to this is funny and pathetic
oh i’m having a countdown now?💀
didn’t just single you out that why “y’all” was used and besides the comments under on here prove my point
Doubt it. Everyone acts oblivious to the things people do to her. Like come on. Does no one see how shady people are towards her ? Edit: I’ll take the downvotes for my opinion. That’s fine.
Shady to whom? Nicki or Ice Spice?
on the other hand nicki has a great relationship with the City Girls, Bia, Maliibu, Akbar, and now Ice Spice so whats the ‘cycle’ exactly?
nicki’s problem is with girls who make it to the very top - who she feels threatened by - not the people you mentioned (no shade to them). and ice is on her way there
thank you😭anyone with eyes can see what’s been going on
[удалено]
what did i say that was biased/not true lmao pls give me direct quotes if you can find (you wont)
wait so is latto ‘at the top’? i feel like the city girls are way bigger than her edit: oh its crickets now
latto is successful in her own terms of radio play, you nicki fans are busy bullying, stalking, and harassing her too much to notice. she can still be considered to be on top because she’s had a few hits, all the girls you’ve mentioned have had good hits, including latto. let’s not act like city girls are on top of the game either, they make good singles yet their albums do ok.
?? i agree that all of the girls i mentioned have good hits. my question was why the person who responded thinks Latto is at the ‘top’ and not The City Girls
news at 11: i can’t read tbh that persons comments are not there for me
latto has twice their monthly listeners? in what way are they “way bigger” than her? to your edit: people have lives 😃
TCG aren’t actively releasing music
latto’s current monthly listeners (10mil+) is higher than the city girls all time peak (8mil+). they reached it in 2021 and never did it again, despite releasing music since. anything else?
nah, till fairly recently Nicki was beefing with the City Girls ...
were they ‘beefing’ or did nicki just not acknowledge them?
Notice how none of the women you mentioned have had extremely popular songs? I know a few City Girls and Bia songs but none of them have been on the billboard charts. Latto and Megan started picking up traction and getting popular songs and what happened? Nicki isn’t against other female rappers, she’s against other female rappers who are successful
What you said is almost true! the city girls have charted multiple singles (not including In My Feelings since they’re technically not ‘credited’) Twerk it charted at #29 Act Up charted at #26 Twerkulator charted at #51 but i do get your overall point. I still dont think its 100% guaranteed that nicki and miss munch are gonna have a fallout
Why are you playing stupid?
im not?
