Elon Musk mentions Nicki Minaj in response to Kanye West.
Kanye West finally dropped his new Ty Dolla Sign collab album “Vultures” volume one last week, and the project is currently trending on streaming services and social media. The rapper took to his Twitter to quote a lyric from his song “Carnival” which is a fan favourite from the album and also featured Rich the Kid and Playboi Carti.
“Elon where my rocket ship at,” he wrote with a clip from his recent show. The X Ceo was quick to respond, as he also mentioned Nicki Minaj, in reference to her song “Starships”. “Starships were meant to fly and our next one launches in about 3 weeks,” Elon Musk responded to Ye. “But I recommend waiting for a few more test flights before hopping on board. @NICKIMINAJ.”
