Nicki Minaj made an interesting observation on Saturday (December 16). The self-proclaimed Queen of Rap took to Instagram to post a screenshot of iTunes’ current Top 10 Hip-Hop/Rap chart, which lists artists like Eminem, Post Malone, NF, G-Eazy, Lil Pump, Macklemore and Machine Gun Kelly. Minaj noticed they all had one thing in common – they’re white.
“It’s a great time to be a white rapper in America huh?,” she wrote. “These are the top 10 rap songs on US iTunes.”
She later added, “S/O to Em & Post. Two of my faves. Congrats to Em on his new album. #Motorsport put dat thing in sport.”
Minaj’s caption elicit seemingly endless opinions — ranging from calling the Queens rapper “salty” to encouraging her to talk her “shit.” But judging by her recent update, several Instagram users evidently took issue with it. Some even accused her of being racist.
“*UPDATE* blocking all u sensitive dick riders,” she wrote. “It IS a great time to be a white rapper in America. I wanna sign one for my new label. U know anyone? I spk my mthafkn mind n if u don’t like it gtfo my page dick rida! Y’all can never wait to ride the Queen dick! Sensitive ass ig thugs. Gtfoh.”
She wasn’t done yet. Roughly an hour later, Minaj posted a video of a 2014 J. Cole interview with Angie Martinez talking about a similar topic and challenged Instagram users to “be mad at this too.” The lengthy caption blasted anyone who tried to censor what she had to say.
“whenever a black women speaks on ANYTHING she’s labeled as “mad” “angry” “bitter,” she wrote. “I’m on 4 songs on the Billboard Hot 100. I’m blessed & highly favored thx to my amazing fans. But I’ll spk on whatever the fuck I want to whenever the fuck I want to. I love being a smart successful woman. It’s never been cool or funny to be illiterate or uninterested in your own industry & how it works.”
Also among iTunes’ Top 10 were N.E.R.D’s “Lemon” featuring Rihanna and “MotorSport,” Minaj’s track with Migos and Cardi B.
Culture vultures
Dont forget to give a S/O to the white men who made your Phone/Laptop you made that ignorant comment from.
@Who is vulturing? – you mean the same white men who use the internet that was invented by the black man?
Shakespeare black too
Wow your one dumb fucking spesr chucker
LOL. Didnt know Robert E. Kahn was black. Looks pretty much white to me
Asian men don’t really consider themselves white
Asians didnt invent the phone and laptop, fool. Use google before you make yourself stupid
Philip Emeagwali
He didnt invent anything he made application for an already existing computer, you fool
Who is she calling d-rider?? Complaints about White Rapper in the Hip Hop Charts and then shoutouts 2 of the White Rappers and calls them her favs. If they are 2 of your favs then why you hatin you race baiting b*tch?
What was her point tho?? She probably shouldn’t had hit ‘send’ but her inner hater couldn’t be stopped lol don’t post that lame ish then hide behind the ‘Black woman,mad/angry’ stereotyping,that only discredits women who REALLY are being stereotyped…she was just being hateful and ugly
Yessir. Say it again!
I can’t believe white people are successful.
This the same woman that bleaches her skin and the same woman that needs drake who is half white to write her biggest hits????
Drake is not half white, he’s half jevvish. Look at his facial features, dummy.
Have you seen his fucking mother? God damn stupid fucking shit ive heard today other than this dumb bitch
Drake mother Sandy is a canadian jevv.
You understand mosy canadians are WHITE right? And you understand being j e w i s h is a RELIGION not a race right? Now you can be israeli or from jerusulam and yes they tend to have a browner skin tone and are often j e w i s h… but his mom is fucking white and i GUARENTEE european anscetry just like myself… now do me a favor go read a book and educate yourself before i beat you to death with an encyclopedia
Who cares if they are white or black. Its itunes. Lol itunes top ten is just like the radio stations top ten. Its mainly pop songs.
Lil Pump ain’t white though. Isn’t he mexican or some shit?
White Mexican though
Funny thing is without whitey Nicki shit wouldn’t be on the charts since it’s not like black people buy music, you know.
Man this bitch is retarded….and my god to think in a country where white people are 65% of the population and canada above us again being very largley caucasian and same to europe as well and what do they have in common? The most developed nations economicaly in the world where people spend money on entertainment and whag are black people doing lately? Oh yeah alienating white people and making them feel like they dont deserve anything or arent worth what they are worth and the pro black rap lyrics that make them feel like they dont belong and shouldnt be or how horrible they are because of the supposed horrible racism of today and some shit from 200 years ago and the disrepect prior to civil rights 50+ years ago everythings been the white mans problem and well the white mans gonna turn his back and do what 9/10 black people do and thats pick favorites and hold its own kind up on a pedestal over anyone else
“It IS a great time to be a white rapper in America. I wanna sign one for my new label. U know anyone?” – Exactly! And then she backtracks SMFH?! It’s alienate white people now which is 90% of their audience. Who’s really the racists nowadays? F*ck these rappers! You don’t want us in your culture? Cool! Don’t complain to us about racism when you’re OPENLY racist, but disguising it as something else! F*ck you, bitch! Gotta be half naked to garner attention. If she wasn’t attractive, NOBODY would give a sh*t about her! SUPER FACTS!!!!!!!!!!!
Wait wait wait a minute.
Who said she was attractive?
She got an ok booty but a mean horse face
Lmao 2nd dude below shes got a horseface for days and her bootys nice to look at but touching it im sures similar to touching a half frozen ham lol
They all have another thing in common too, they all make hit songs. Bitch just salty she ain’t poppin unless she shows her ass so she turns to her sheep followers for an excuse to turn it into a race issue. Stfu hoe.
Hit songs do not mean your a great artist. Vanilla Ice.. Milli Vanilli.. Carly Rae .. Soulja Boy. etc. its not a race issue either. she was pointing out FACTS… why r ppl so butt hurt. Is it not a great time to be a white rapper?? U guys are dumb as fuck.
Pwahaha, Remy disses her she feels bad, then when shes down Cardi steals the spot and people rally behind her and now Ems on top jus when she was starting to put out songs. Sorry Nicki can’t pull that white card to save ur diminishing approval
This plastic bitch is ugly, racist, and hateful. She calls other people sensitive yet blocks people for not kissing her fake ass lmao
All female rappers are trash
Luaryn Hill would disageee
Snow had some bars back a couple years ago tho
Damm, who’s more racist and bitter, Nicki Minaj or Kyle Eustice??
Hold up she cant speak her mind. White ppl fail to understand what she is truly saying and black ppl as well. HIP HOP is black music, nobody can dispute that. White ppl finally took to it.. now its basically pop music in terms of how the masses appreciate it. Basically if your a white rapper right now. u will rise to the top regardless if u have talent or not. because more white ppl are listening to it. Your fan base is already there. Black artist have to work twice as hard for recognition in their own field. How is she racist?? U guys are sensitive as fuck. The minute a black person says anything about race they are racist… U do know racism based of of power… white ppl still to this day hold all the power… okay that is out of the way now.
Also is a black artist puts out ratchet music is widely accepted ( cause we are playing the roll they want us to play) if they put out real music (they lost there touch or a getting soft) … dont let what happened to rock and roll happen to hip hop… shit even in RnB.. they would rather have Justin Timberlake who is weak as fuck sing or lets say a TANK or Usher.. that is what the world has come to… shit even Sam Smith getting more plays than Leon Bridges.
U literally have to be blind deaf and dumb.. not to understand what she is saying. or what is happen in the world today. or the music climate.
GTFOH…
Shit Yonce had a country song… and it got shafted.. cause it wasnt as good as real country artist. Im not saying u cant have great white rappers… but DAMN SON. the moment black ppl bring up race or anything. we are ungrateful racist… GTFOH u sensitive low key racist bigoted individuals.
We can play the “black thing” “white thing” all day, freedom is a white culture thing. Book!
I don’t like nicki minaj. I think she is just another rapper from the rap years 2000-2018 who is overrated but she has a point. If you look at history and not race, black rock, hip hop and jazz turn into rock n roll, rap and smooth jazz. Why should black artists be pushed out of their own music for white artists? I like white artists throughout history so that’s not the issue. Just imagine if this country was mainly black and they did a contest for the best Italian food. I think it would be strange if 7 out of the 10 companies were black instead of white. Nobody makes better Italian food than Italians. You can buy it from store and make it taste good but the Italians are the orginators and should get most of the praise. Blacks should get most of the praise too. Its not about race. It’s all about who tradition it is. Peace!
Preach
If there was a black chef making Italian food that was equivalent to Eminem rapping nobody would give a shit.
You mentioned one white rapper. I’m talking about the whole industry. Plus, these white rappers are horrible and so are the blacks ones because this is not hip hop music. This is rap music on the music charts not hip hop. Put hip hop back on the radio then you truly have the best music no matter what the color artists because talent would win out. I love hip-hop music. I don’t care about the race but when you have a bunch of no talented rappers it is easy to slide in wack white rappers, not hip hop artists, because their all terrible. I mean the black and white rappers are corny. I listen to hip hop because most of them do not sell out the music. When you sell out the music, it becomes watered down rap. Then any fool can pick up the mic and have a number one hit. It is not about race. Its about hip-hop over the rap the years 2000-2018. If you play the best music which is hip hop and not rap then the cream would rise to the top. There would be no issues about race because the best HIP HOP ARTIST would win no matter the color of the artists. Peace!
Btw I’m 34 and do t listen to this new bullshit. Just saying that complaining who’s on top because they are white is a dumb argument. The music now is all trash anyway. The kids today have terrible taste and don’t care about a real message or lyricism. Music in general is a wasteland of shit.
I agree rap is horrible today but not hip hop music. I buy very good records from the underground artists all the time. The underground artists are the real hip hop rappers not the bullshit pop rappers. The corporations control rap music and they will play any simple behind shit to get money. I don’t want simple rhymes and beats like rap music. I want a work of art like hip hop. Hip hip records you really have to listen to them but rap music is simple wack ass shit. Fuck the corporations and the garbage ass rappers. Long live the best art form of all time.
But there are black Italians btw. Just saying.
Lol. Yes, there are black italians. It doesn’t matter though. Italians should get the praise for their italian food no matter whether their black or white italians. African-americans should get the same praise for hip hop not to say a dope white hip-hop artists couldn’t bang out the hits like the beastie boys or others.
Don’t know why Nicki is complaining. She works with just as much or more with white artists than she does black. If she got a problem with it she needs to help promote black MC’s and real hip hop instead of making that sugar coated white peoples pop music
She saying some real stuff and white people getting mad lmaoooo. She just saying what all the other rappers are scared to say! How can you not respect it?
Cause its racist.
Tell black rappers to make better songs. Ii don’t really think it has to do with race but what people like. Hip-hop is supposed to unite people of all races and it shouldn’t matter if the top songs are from black or white artists. Quit trying to put racism into everything.
telling blacks rappers to make better songs is a stupid comment when you have whyt artists on that list that are complete basura. One of the dudes scream gucci gang for the whole song. So quit it. You don’t get to dictate hiphop cuz you listen to it. You don’t make the rules in this culture and you never will. All you do is copy and whitewash the shyt outta it so your ppl can digest. listen to rap in it’s entirety before you comment. This is grown folk business, step aside.
Kind of a point though. Imagine rock or country charts top 10 full of black artists. Racism is wack though. Let people enjoy what they want
the last part of your statement kinda neutralizes the first part. So she has no point?! And Rock Music is Black, there are plenty black Rock Artist and they been in the Charts too. You and most black people dont fuck wit those Artist though. Also her statement is nonsense. You can pick any other week of the Year and you will find Black Artist dominating the Rap Charts. Its very rare that basically all big White Rap Artist have a Single out to the same time and immediatly the whining of the real racists started.
No matter the lists, hiphop will always be black and brown music. That will never change; it was made by and for the indigenous. This shyt today is all pop. Hip-pop. Nobody in the hood listening to Mackelmore, nobody. Yet he won a grammy. Nas has yet to win a grammy. That tells you all you need to know. Real ni66as know what it is, we don’t need the validation. We know where to go when it’s time to feed the soul. Fcuk all dat otha shyt.
The only good white rappers are MC Serch, Beastie Boys, Psychopathic Rydas, Eminem 1996-2005, Everlast, Miilkbone (Only one real album) , ill bill (1991-2007) , Snow (Reggae Artist), Mad Child from swollen members (1995-2003). Everybody else that’s white is straight trash or switched their style up on us. Kid Rock and Fred Durst are nice too. Go listen to good black music like RBL Posse.
White people by white artists’ music. Black people buy black artists’ music… Wow what a surprise *mind blown*
Hey – Bet rap would be great again if some of you (you know who you are!), actually had something to say out your mouths instead of drugs, sex, ass, mumble, fuck, suck, lean, weed, etc. Go back to telling a story and talking about things! HINT HINT!
What does Lil pump rap about?? Try that again
move in > gentrification > racism
move out > white flight > racism
don’t see colour > oblivious to/ignoring racism > racism
sees colour > racism
doesn’t partake in culture > non inclusive > racism
engages in culture > cultural appropriation > racism
win an award > privilege > racism
quick reminder whities: you’ll never win.
