Nicki Minaj returned to the spotlight on Thursday night (May 13), shortly before she released an extended version of her 2009 mixtape Beam Me Up Scotty to streaming platforms for the first time.
During an Instagram Live session, people couldn’t help but notice her constant sniffles, prompting rumors of drug use. Azealia Banks, who’s never afraid to speak her mind, was among the many wondering if Nicki had done cocaine prior to hopping on the giant social media platform.
“Girl, if you sniffle one more time on this muthafuckin’ Live, sis,” she said. “The Barbz, y’all need to check her on that. No, we have to talk about that sniffling, Nicki. You not low. You not low. Please stop sniffling, sis. That shit is not even cute no more. Cocaine is not even cocaine no more. Once they locked El Chapo up, bitch, the original formula is gone.
“Whatever you putting in your nose, please stop putting it in your nose. Baby powder, teething powder…whatever you putting in your nose. Please stop putting it in your nose, Nicki. That is not OK. And them titties look like a butt.”

It didn’t take long for Nicki Minaj to address the chatter. On another Instagram Live, she emphatically denied she’s ever ingested cocaine.
“I don’t know if it’s just me, but I wouldn’t be embarrassed about any fuckin’ drugs I did,” she claimed. “That’s why I talk about the muthafuckin’ drugs I do in my muthafuckin’ music. Always have, always fuckin’ will. If I’m off ’em, I’m off ’em, child.
“But, I want to make this clear so open everybody’s ears, clear them ears out. I have never, ever in my life with my hands on Jesus Christ — and y’all know how I feel about my Lord and savior — never in my life, ever, not even once sniffed coke. Ever.”
But Nicki did cop to having allergies and taking the allergy medication Allegra on a regular basis.
“If I ever did coke at anytime in my life, I woulda been rapping about it,” she continued. “That’s just never been my drug of choice. I do take Allegra every day and also I have to take Allegra now, sometimes twice a day. But if I was crying or if I was just blowing my nose, this is me. All day. Runny, sniffly, all the time.”

Elsewhere, she noted she knew plenty of people in the industry who do coke but doesn’t join them.
“By the way, I have a lot of friends or acquaintances in the industry that actually do coke,” she said. “I don’t judge them for it, but I’ve never tried it. Never wanted to. Never asked them to. Especially in the fashion world. That’s so common and normal.”
It is well known and documented that Azealia is mental. Completely.
Why even respond to her?
Cocaine is a helluva drug…it’s ok Nicki. I’d be on some blow being a part of your fan base too. Bc they’re some sorry addicts.
I don’t get what the big deal about coke is, here in So Cal we use it like candy.. shit I use it from time to time it’s a party drug.. never had a problem with it affecting my priorities, my job, friends or family. I’m in no way promoting pple to use it but it’s like w.e no where near as bad as shooting up heroin or snorting crystal.
people dying from bad cocaine – that’s what happened to X and many others. Nothing to do with the habit just dangerous supply these days. Every weekend people like yourself are dropping dead from coke overdoses because of cheap chemical additives most from China but other places as well. I understand your attitude as it was prevalent in the 70s and 80 even up to 2000s but be careful one bad batch and you are finished. No coming back. Stick to weed. Not the same rush on delivery but give it 10 minutes it’s the same buzz
When I was breastfeeding my daughter, I had the worst sinus infection. And I couldn’t take antibiotics. Nicki Minaj has stated she has never tried cocaine. I believe her. Neither have I. You know who doesn’t believe her? Azealia Banks because she HAS DONE probably every drug and prostitution-type shit there is. Azealia Banks is just a nasty, vindictive, jealous “human being” with no career and no prospects.
Preach babygirl
nicki got another 6 years her body aging pretty well…. she could pull a jayz and release albums randomly and stay out of the spotlight n still be able to eat
Definitely on Coke. If you know you know
Nicki Minaj is a sexy mofo no cap
Azaelia is a sorry excuse for a trash can. She’s a foul and degenerate cretin that can not for the life of her stop running her mouth unprovoked. Disgusting
Azealia is such a Nicki stan, it’s pathetic
Did she really say “the original formula is gone” because of El Chapo being locked up? Wow! I thought this girl was just “acting” crazy… She really is dumb as f*ck and beyond crazy! Cocaine was around YEARS before El Chapo goof ball! smh! Lmfao
Just show your juggs.
