Nicki Minaj and Latto beef erupt on Twitter.
Earlier today it was revealed that Nicki Minaj’s hit “Super Freaky Girl” has been removed from the rap category to pop by the Grammys. Minaj took to her social media to show her disappointment and also name-dropped Latto for her song “Big Energy. “I have no prob being moved out the RAP category as long as we r ALL being treated FAIRLY,” Minaj tweeted. “If SFG (‘Super Freaky Girl’) has 2B moved out RAP then so does Big Energy! ANY1 who says diff is simply a Nicki hater or a troll.”
I have no prob being moved out the RAP category as long as we r ALL being treated FAIRLY. If SFG has 2B moved out RAP then so does Big Energy! ANY1 who says diff is simply a Nicki hater or a troll. I’d actually LUV 2 c a more street record win- male OR female! IJS rightIsRight 🫡

After the comments from Nicki Minaj, a beef erupts between the two artists as they trade shots at each other in Twitter war. “Could you imagine someone telling you not to “complain” about being treated unfairly at your workplace? This is my job. I work very hard. No diff from a 9-5 where you should speak up for yourself if you know you’re a great employee & continue to be purposely sabotaged,” Nicki tweeted in another post.

“Damn I can’t win for losing… all these awards/noms I can’t even celebrate,” Latto wrote in response to Nicki Minaj.

“This Karen has probably mentioned my name in over 100 interviews. Says she waited in line for Pink Friday w|her Barbie chain on, bangs, pink hair…but today, scratch off decides to be silent; rather than speak up for the black woman she called her biggest inspiration,” Nicki Minaj wrote in a deleted tweet.
“1st of all I texted u cause I didn’t wanna do the internet sht w sum1 I looked up to. Just like the 1st time I DMed u asking about ur ongoing subtweets,” Latto responds. “I wanted to speak up cuz like I said I do agree but the way u going about it seems malicious esp. after how we left off.”

Latto continued in another tweet and called Nicki a bully. “I’ve ignored countless subtweets since March and instead addressed u in the dm. You’re asking why I didn’t speak up in ur defense… it’s the same answer I gave u when u asked why I didn’t congratulate you. Ur literally older than my mom tryna be a bully @NICKIMINAJ.”
Nicki then shared previous DMs she had sent to Latto, in which Latto invited her to cooperate. “Every DM from scratch-off is about a feature,” she explained. “I was kind every time. But scratch off feels she has pull behind the scenes w/ a few diff white men (won’t name right now). ” Nicki went on to call Latto an “entitled Karen who blames everyone else for her album’s failure.” She also maintained that Latto’s real beef with her stemmed from Nicki’s refusal to collaborate on several occasions.

Ok first…This is from when I teased Big Energy Remix. You didn’t deny subtweeting me otp??? I’m confused. Peep “not again” because she thinks I was “using her fans” for simply teasing my “Wheelie” ft & then the BE remix ft pic.twitter.com/N14wCHgrFE

And Barbz, there’s no need to be angry. This is simply an open discussion/healthy dialogue. Independent thinking is what makes us human beings! 😘♥️🎀
