Nicki Minaj Mocks Laid-Off Employees At Cardi B’s Record Label

by

Hundreds of Atlantic Records employees were in for a surprise when parent company Warner Music’s CEO, Robert Kyncl, emailed them today (Thursday, September 19). The media conglomerate announced a massive restructuring process for Atlantic that will include layoffs, warning them of some bad news moving forward. This is obviously no laughing matter, but Nicki Minaj barely held back in her shade. Many speculate that her dismissive reaction to this news on Thursday morning is because Cardi B is on Atlantic, and because the label has allegedly tried to sabotage Nicki’s career as a result of their beef.

“Dear fired executives & A&R’s: Don’t be mad, UPS is hiring,” Nicki Minaj ruthlessly tweeted. “Also, feel free to submit your resumes for a job @ #HeavyOnIt [her imprint with Republic Records].” “They’ve been wanting empty arenas so bad. Obsessed with me while all your friends r getting fired is nasty work,” she added in a previous tweet. Of course, it’s far from the Trinidadian superstar’s only Twitter rant as of late. For example, she recently went off on an assistant who made a food order for her, but just had one small issue: she didn’t conceal Nicki’s identity.

Elsewhere, Nicki Minaj continues to share about her life and beefs, whether combatively or in a more measured manner. She claimed to still not have U.S. citizenship recently, and while she didn’t talk about it more, a lot of fans expressed surprise upon hearing this. “I’m not a citizen of America. Isn’t that crazy?” Nicki shared. “I was born on a beautiful island called Trinidad and Tobago. But I’ve been in the States for many years. You would think that with the millions of dollars that I paid in taxes to this country that I would [get] an honorary citizenship many, many, many thousands of years ago.”

Regardless, Nicki Minaj is a massive icon and probably drove many Barbz to petition the U.S. government unprompted to give her what she deserves. Jokes aside, we wonder what her next revelation to fans will be, and what that story reflects. In this case, it’s partly about the biggest femcee rivalry since Minaj’s original rise and largely about the music industry’s competitive and merciless practices. Let’s see if any Atlantic employees come knocking at Heavy On It’s door… a label whose parent company Republic Records also had layoffs this year, funnily enough.

Cardi B Fans Think She Just Dissed Nicki Minaj & JT During Her Instagram Live

While most of the Nicki Minaj and Cardi B beef is a battle between the Barbz and the Bardi Gang, sometimes these artists can fuel it too. Moreover, a lot of the latter group thinks that their fav sent shade to the Trinidadian superstar and to her former collaborator, JT. For those unaware, Nicki apparently unfollowed the former City Girl on Instagram (and Ice Spice, for that matter), which prompted someone to ask about that situation during Cardi’s recent Instagram Live. While it’s technically still up in the air whether she meant to address them, she did mention this commenter by name, and the comments themselves explicitly name these femcees.

“Freaky Marko, can you stop f***ing – I love you, but please stop mentioning these b***hes on my s**t,” Cardi B expressed during her IG Live, responding to @freakymarko’s question about Nicki Minaj and JT. “I love you to death, but don’t mention these h*es on my s**t. That s**t is just messy.” Interestingly enough, Nicki recently enlisted BIA for her upcoming tour, whom dissed Cardi on a track earlier this year.

Elsewhere, another possible development in this long-running beef came from Nicki Minaj, as she took to Twitter to seemingly respond to Cardi B flaunting her top status following her Inspiration Award win at the Hollywood Unlocked Impact Awards. “Hi so let’s get into this right now,” Nicki tweeted. “I’m that Btch. That’s Number 1. Number 2. Revisit number one. If it means you gotta revisit that s**t 500 times a day, DO IT!!!!!!!! Before you EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Think bout playing pon MY BOMBOROSCLOT HEADTOP!!!!!”

“I’m really my biggest critic and I always say this,” Cardi B said in her Impact Awards speech. “Nobody has it harder than in the industry and in every genre than a female rapper, and I’m going to tell you why. You have to have the best verse. Not only that, you have to kill the charts. On top of that, your personal life has to be perfect, or then the opp b***hes are going to use that against you.” We’ll see what happens next between these warring femcees.

Nicki Minaj Attempts To Reassert Her “Number 1” Status Following Cardi B’s Inspiration Award

Over this past weekend, the fourth annual Hollywood Unlocked Impact Awards took place and Cardi B was a major headline from it. The Bronx, New York product was the honoree of the Inspiration Award, and she gave quite the impassioned speech. “I’m really my biggest critic and I always say this. Nobody has it harder than in the industry and in every genre than a female rapper, and I’m going to tell you why. You have to have the best verse. Not only that, you have to kill the charts. On top of that, your personal life has to be perfect, or then the opp b****es are going to use that against you”.

Perhaps that “opp” is Nicki Minaj because she did not appreciate her sworn enemy receiving all of that appreciation. Before Cardi B was rewarded for her efforts, she mentioned how she knows how influential she is to her field of hip-hop. In the Instagram clip below, the “I Like It” hitmaker says, “I obviously see it. Sometimes people always want to underestimate everything I have done but I know I have made a change in my field. I know I changed a lot of s***”. She continues, “I know I give a lot of girls inspiration, no matter if they admit it or not. Baby, I see Cardi B all over you, baby. B****, don’t play yourself”.

After waiting in the wings, Nicki Minaj unleashed on X in a late-night rant, looking to defend her “Number 1” status. “Hi so let’s get into this right now. I’m that Btch”, Nicki asserts. “That’s Number 1. Number 2. Revisit number one. If it means you gotta revisit that s*** 500 times a day, DO IT!!!!!!!! Before you EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Think bout playing pon MY BOMBOROSCLOT HEADTOP!!!!!”. She does make a compelling argument, especially with her bragging about her uber-successful tour during this diatribe.
