Nicki Minaj and guest Joe Budden got in a heated exchange during Monday’s (August 12) episode of Queen Radio. It became so intense, Nicki cut his mic.
During her tirade, she also called out Charlamagne Tha God for allegedly starting a “hate train” against her and accused him of damaging her reputation.
On Tuesday (August 13), The Breakfast Club co-host denied doing anything of the sort and insisted he had nothing but love for the self-proclaimed Queen of Rap.
“Nicki and I have had conversations about this via phone call and via text message,” he said. “We’ve had these discussions about this ‘hate train.’ It’s not true. If she wants to believe that and wants her fans to believe that, it’s cool.”
He added, “I love Nicki Minaj. Nicki put me on her [Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded album]. Nicki and I always had a solid relationship. It went south when I said ‘Anaconda’ was wack. But the moral of the story is I love Nicki Minaj.
“And the respect she’s telling everybody she deserves, she has already. I have gotten on this radio a million times and said this whole new wave of female rap is because of Nicki Minaj. She is the leader of the new school when it comes to female emcees and nobody can take that away from her.”
DJ Envy, who also caught some flak for his participation in the so-called Nicki hate train, defended his actions as well. Nicki said The Breakfast Club personality text her during the show, which he said never happened.
“First of all, I did not text Nicki Minaj yesterday,” he explained. “What happened was when she was talking spicy yesterday, me and her DJ, DJ Boof, have a great relationship. I was like, ‘This is the Nicki I love. She needs to put this in music. I love when she talks spicy.’ That’s what I said to Boof. He probably let her see it. I don’t even have Nicki’s number.”
Charlamagne ended with a lighthearted warning.
“Nicki, we love you,” he said. “We just don’t want you to become the rap game’s Mo’Nique. We don’t want you blaming everybody but yourself for whatever issues you may have. Don’t make us start calling you ‘Mo’nika.’ But we love you for real.”
Shes so bitter!
Who really cares about her remy waxed that fake ass lol bottom line to hell with her remy all hot dam day remy remy
C’mon Charlamagne Tha God, be for real you have always hated on Nikki AND Drake for that matter. I have never, ever heard you say anything good about her, you stay in Cardi B shit so tough it’s ridiculous
He’s keeping it real and I love it. Pretty much all of these female rappers are wack including Drake. Nobody really is feeling their terrible music it’s just that it’s being driven into our ears all day everyday if you put the radio on. Everybody sounds the same and all the topics are the same so CTG is just stating that facts.
Lenard never keeps it real. He is the biggest b(y)tch and hater in radio. He is a wave rider just like all the rest.
Nicki used to be hot a few years ago but now she is no longer the new hot girl on the scene (and its okay, her time has come and gone). It’s a shame she didn’t collab with other females rappers in the game and support one another when she was dominating.
What about your Travis Scott hate? Are you starting a “ hate train?” She’s that kind of person who wants to be on top and everyone below.
Nicki does this shit to herself. Delusional. Always throwing rocks hiding her hands then crying victim. Ever since cardi came out it’s like she lost her mind
Nicki Minaj thinks everyone is supposed to worship her lmao. she’s a joke
She’s a junkie with an ego, the worst kind of drug addict.
Lol ???
