Spotify’s RapCaviar caused a stir amongst Hip Hop fans on Thursday (May 28) when they posted a picture of Hip Hop’s 2010s Mount Rushmore. The picture included Drake, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar and a spot left open for fans to debate and figure out.
As the Hip Hop community got together to pick and choose who should get that spot, LeBron James left his opinion and may have gotten Nicki Minaj upset with her pick. The Los Angeles Lakers star forward retweeted RapCaviar’s picture and said Future should be in the Hip Hop 2010s Mount Rushmore conversation. Nicki saw the tweet and let The King have it.
“Never thought I’d get the opportunity to give you the alley oop,” Nicki wrote in her retweet of LeBron’s pick. “But you almost had it. It’s N I C K I…EMMMM I N A J!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Nicki can claim that spot on that list with the dominant run in the 2010s. On top of becoming the number one female rapper in the game, she was also one of the highest-selling rappers at one point. Nicki’s absence has been felt by fans lately and the Queen rapper healed the heartache when she dropped her breakout 2009 mixtape Beam Me Up Scotty on streaming services.
In March, Russ took to Twitter to remind people how impactful Nicki Minaj was at the peak of her career and even theorized she’d lay waste to the TikTok era.
Russ Thinks Nicki Minaj Would’ve Had A Stranglehold On The TikTok Era
“Imagine if TikTok was out during Nicki Minaj blowin up era…numbers woulda been astronomical lmao,” Russ tweeted. “Did it on em, only, anaconda, twerk it, FEELING MYSELF Man, soooo many like bruh lmao shit was already outta here but that woulda been insane lol.”
Tits or GTFO, Minaj.
Kanye dude dropped
MBDTF
Watch the Throne

Cole needs to go dude has one really good album
Yeezus isn’t that good neither is Life of Pablo…you get some good songs but a lot of skips, Kids See Ghosts is him and Cudi.
imagine if the governments around the world stopped sitting on their hands and eliminated piracy.
Shut up, dude.
Nicki or Kanye should get that spot.
Kanye yeah you right.
I fcks with nicki… I just can’t with other rappers. I get authentic vibes when you see and hear nicki.
I wish I could block every one of those deranged idiots on Twitter that worship Nicki Minaj too.
Why do these artists who never write their own songs word for word want to act like they’re the best? Nicki Minaj is the equivalent to Missy Elliot or Lil Kim. Show rappers who make a lot of flashy videos with extravagant outfits but can’t rap toe to toe with the vets. Does nobody know about that Danny Brown story where he seen her cry when they were both on the come up just because she couldn’t write any lyrics? Replace Drake with Eminem.
Idiot
Gucci Mane
2010’s is easy: Drake, Kendrick, Cole, Future…..Kanye started off good but every album after MBDTF got worse, Eminem stayed consistent but His work before 2010 was better, Weezy’s prime was 04-09 and Kid Cudi is close but His only good solo album besides Man on The Moon series is Indicud
