Nicki Minaj hosted a Twitter Q&A for her fans shortly after dropping the new single “Yikes.” When a fan asked her how the song came about, the newly coined Mrs. Kenneth Petty claimed she felt forced to release it.
“I was playing a snippet for my crazy fans & they made me put it out,” she said. “They are bullies. I only had 1 verse done. The label bullied me too. I’ve been bullied.”
During the Q&A, Nicki revealed some background on the song, noting she made the hook up on the spot.
“I made up the hook with no paper,” she said. “Just freestyled in the booth cuz I loved the beat. so the yikes part is me hearing the beat for the very first time. The verses I wrote down. The outro was a freestyle.”
The Queen Radio host also confirmed she’ll be introducing a new alter ego named Queen Sleeze on her follow-up to 2018’s Queen.
“She’s more calm but way deadlier,” she said. “My husband always says he’s more afraid when I talk quiet then when I yell. Lmao. He said that’s how he knows when I’m dead tf serious.”
“Yikes” stirred up some controversy earlier this week due to Nicki’s line about late civil rights activist Rosa Parks. “All you bitches Rosa Parks/Uh oh, get your ass up,” she rapped, a reference to Parks’ 1955 Montgomery bus boycott.
In true Nicki fashion, she made it clear she isn’t concerned about the backlash.
“Never said this,” she wrote on one of her Instagram Stories. “Had no clue anyone was mad. Don’t care. #Yikes”
She included TMZ’s headline, “NICKI MINAJ ALLEGEDLY SAYS ROSA PARKS LYRIC WAS ‘BAD TIMING;’ NOT MEANT TO OFFEND OR DISRESPECT PARKS.”
yawn. her fall off is painful to watch.
Her last album was her best one. Too early to say.
pink friday was her best. safaree as writer.
More like all of her albums are garbage sounds about right.
If you’re not a fan, cool. But, don’t go flying off at the mouth with your bullshitty ass lie. Gtfo her clit
Sounds like you’re the one on her clit. Some stranger says something about her on the internet, and you come rushing to her defense as if you know her personally lol
Maybe she does. Maybe she’s one of the people that nicki hires to troll and defend her on the internet. Maybe she is Nicki trolling and defending herself on the internet lol or maybe she’s just a delusional fan that thinks that nicki actually cares about her opinion and she’s not just another dollar sign in her eyes.
Tf? You’re garbage
….
What a great article. Truly expanding the boundaries of journalism.
Shes changed and not for the better.
Never let noone bully or make you do what you do not want to do. Never lower your creativity.
No shades at #RosaParks line⭐that was a statement!
Got to listen to #yikes in full.
A fan in Canada ??

She aint been the same since shether
Fuck you. Mother fuckers. Mother fuckin peice of shit. Mother fuckerw. Son of a bitch. Mother fuckers. Fuck.
The hip-hop community never gives female mcs props. But she is the best to ever do it. If you wanna pretend that everything she does is garbage juice you’re delusional.
She is not. Rapsody and Sa-Roc raps circles around her. All Nicki rap about is materialistic BS, her fake body parts, and “haters”. Her music doesn’t have significant content. Her selling sex and mindless content is a big reason she is where she’s at today.
Exactly .. Not seeing non of those Real MCS everrrr
Yup Sa-roc is nice with it. In fact Id even throw Dessa’s name in the mix as a top MC.
She has plenty of songs that don’t talk about sex or materialistic things, people just pick and choose what they want to hear from her. When she debuted she literally covered up and wore clothes that barely showed her body.
Here’s my thing, why she want a fake butt, let a fella dig in it, it’ll be natural and plump. Now she just done messed everything up. Mr.Petty take every dime she got, her body is without meaning. Fake butt, fake hair, fake personality, fake face. Damnit
Oh woowah lol #stophating
I was just telling truth, I can lie anyday and anyway you like however. But I don’t prefer too… It’s too petty….
You sound like you write “good morning beautiful” texts to women that just gave you their number
