Nicki Minaj feat. (Nicki Minaj)
None of us are surprised that Ice Spice & JT have been added to the ongoing list of female rapper that Nicki Minaj isn't currently featuring right after collabing and celebrating them. Nick unfollowed JT & Ice Spice and when fans asked she shared that the people know what they did and that she won't be discussing it. Ice Spice makes sense considering the leaked texts from Baby Storme. JT who has done nothing but supported and defended Nicki Minaj makes no sense but does when you think of it.

Dear Beyoncé, Do You Need Some Money?
zhlédnutí 75KPřed 15 hodinami
Beyoncé is launching her own whiskey 'Sir Davis' and naming it after her great grandfather Davis Houge. The branding looks amazing and I'm sure it will be good but another product pushed not too long after all of the other things in less than a year is questionable. Is our fave greedy or broke at this point? Here is a link to support me on Patreon www.patreon.com/kingofreads

Nicki Minaj Arrested in Amsterdam | Protect Black Women?
Yall favorite drink is made by other ethnicities but yall happy to line there pockets. B makes a drink in honor of a family member and everybody upset, and crying they broke its capitalism all the way around. Not just when B puts a product out.
Why? Rhianna is supposed to be some Billionaire and a single parent with a man who doesn't have any current music out. But that's all good!! Beyoncé is about being a business woman who made 1.4 billion dollars for the American economy. Business rule number #1 get it while the getting is hot and #2 don't sleep on anything you can profit from.
That knock is used all over the world. In USSR my parents used it. It's just a popular easy rhythm similar to any other soccer fan rhythms 2 3 4 2 beats.
😂😂😂😂 moon crystals and uno cards is sending me
She gearing up to leave that man
This title made me chuckle
Time to Decenter Men & Stuff!! Things won't change until we opt out. I'm tapping into touching grass and inner fulfillment. Im tapping out of over consumption and influence culture.
Just make an AFORDABLE kids clothing line and call it Yonce. Focus on the importance of getting good grades. With percentage of the first years profits going to a cause close to her heart.
Does Beyonce even drink??? I don’t believe it for one second haha
You nailed it... this was so unfortunate but he's losing other teaching gigs as a result. He's so arrogant, I get abusive vibes from him.
She's definitely not broke but she needs to realize that the only thing it seems like she can sell is her music cuz every other Venture seems to not be profitable for her. I would just stick to music if I were her.
I've always felt it was weird that Nicki Minaj started talking cryptically when JT dropped City Cinderella. It sounded like sabotage to me. The timing was so off and suspect. That incident has snowballed into this discourse. People are now seeing a pattern on Nicki's part..... and it isn't good. I fear Nicki Minaj is moving into Lil Kim territory in the way people are treating her now.
Lol, this was 6 days ago? Where was this 2 months ago? Lol
BLOOP 🥴😂
Love your intro tune! I always dance to it! It’s too short😂😂😂❤
She aint making anyone buy anything 😂😂😂
On a deeper level I feel like no one in these comment sections can actually tell me what’s the issue with her working on different projects and business ventures for YEARS and then releasing to those who want to purchase. Like honestly take a step back and tell what’s the issue with her releasing hair care products that people have testified are GREAT and a whiskey she anonymously entered into contests and is already award winning without it being associated with her name yet until release. Never once has she used any phrase or terminology like “you must buy this shampoo and you’re crazy not too” or “this is the best whiskey ever invented, you HAVE to buy now”. I get the impression that Beyoncé always states if you want to buy it if you don’t that’s fine as well. Her mother was a salon owner and Beyoncé spent some of her childhood in it (which her mother corroborated) and she has the long hair to prove she cares about haircare. Her husband owns a very popular cognac and she revealed her great grandfather made moonshine which again her own father corroborated. When it came to Renaissance her uncle Johnny is a very real man that was important in her family and her mothers life and if you watched her documentary in theaters they spoke at length about him and his life which inspired the album. The proof is all there and you people say she never does anything from a genuine place but don’t do the work to the learn the backstory or history behind her projects. Rihanna has never been a natural hair girlie and fenty hair is random as hell because she’s known for wigs and the products mixed reviews are proof of that, savage x fenty pulled a subscription scam and again is known to have mixed reviews and quality which makes sense because again when did Rihanna become known for lingerie?, even her most successful business project fenty beauty came out of nowhere because when has Rihanna been known for makeup before then she’s a very lightskin woman and her shade has always been readily available in the makeup industry. I don’t say all of this to bash Rihanna but it’s ridiculous that because Beyoncé doesn’t do interviews or red carpets she’s isn’t relatable but when Rihanna pops out to do them only when she’s promoting something all of a sudden it’s genuine. What’s truly disingenuous is y’all’s hate for Beyoncé because often times it comes from an ill informed and intentionally biased perspective.
It is starting to get overwhelming with these celebrities soliciting all this merchandise. Child we looking to buy food stamps, not brown liquor.
Thank you Lord 🎉preach Brother because I'll mind is on a lot of economic support there is so many Jobs gone.😮😢😂
Man this woman just made 24 mil from that Dubai performance. She's good lmao! That's why it's so mindblowing.
Lol keep the same energy for laxury brand like LG and Gucci 😂😂😂
Jealous of Rhianna. Everything she does fails
A cultural capitalist..😂😂❤
I’m not interested in celebrity products. I feel they lack thorough research, and the more they release, the less authentic they seem
When you have hundreds of millions (allegedly), you should be living off the interest (which would be in the millions). Beyonce will just have to cut back on expenses (her leeching family to start with) like everyone else. This Whiskey thing she's trying to do sounds like a Jay-Z idea. And speaking of Jay-Z, isn't he supposedly a billionaire? If she was any other woman, she wouldn't be working and he would (should) be taking care of her.
Nicki being Nicki. Tbh, Nicki only sees black women (because I see yet for her to have this energy towards a man or towards anyone nonblack; I don't count that crap with Miley because Miley was overstepping a lot at that time) as stepping stones. She came out, said some "girl power" type stuff to get women on her side, built a career, often by collaborating with new or old rap faves. Then, she got too big of a head, if we are going to be honest. Is she talented? Yes, i will never deny that she is talented, though it's something else with that big foot mess, but there comes a point when your ego overtakes your talent. Maybe Nicki has mental issues, idk, but she seems to think EVERY woman ever, who even has an OUNCE of talent in the rap game is her enemy, AFTER she gets her use out of them, of course. She says she is a girl's girl, but she's done overly much to prove she is not. It's plain as day that she is not. She has beef with EVERY woman she ever befriends and collabs with. And I have said a few times, I was just WAITING for her to turn on Ice Spice because it's Nicki's pattern. I already stopped believing anyone was doing anything to Nicki with the Megan thing (which came on the heels of her and her fans doxxing a youtuber who literally just shared some normal critical opinions of Nicki, and that youtuber had to threaten legal action), but now I KNOW none of these people are doing anything to Nicki; I truly think it's all in her mind. Like, how some people constantly think anything less than praise is a slight/attack against them. You're telling me every single BLACK woman you encounter is doing something to you to make you turn on them? Nah, the saying goes, if you meet one asshole, you meet an asshole, but if EVERY person is an asshole, baby, it's YOU. And her fans are just as a mess as she is. It's all sad. A bunch of mean girls (this includes the men, too) who have nothing better to do, honestly. Like, it's bad enough you married a pedo and went after his victim, but yeah, she's just... girl got issues.
Nicki isn’t talented. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kinda want her to keep releasing random products make people even madder just for the giggles 😂. Also, been saying this she’s divorcing jay and doesn’t talk publicly cause she can’t like I think she’s been through some traumatic things with that husband of hers and it’s mentally f’ed her up which is why she acts robotic. Seems suffers from high functioning depression
Pink Friday 2 was solid, but The PINKPRINT by Nicki Minaj will always be my favorite. I didn’t appreciate it at the time but going through a physically, emotionally and mentally narcissistic abusive relationship I appreciate that body of work. It’s a classic. However I say she is definitely going through something I think Nicki Minaj forgets she is Nicki Minaj. Now that I’m in my 30s back back in school I can see her frustration lol. People/ the industry does use Nicki Minaj. However how she reacts sometimes is confusing to me. Lol SHE IS NICKI MINAJ none of these new girls will never be her ever. Lol
I freakin knew it so called cowgirl faze selling whiskey 😂😂
" Ween got it!" 💀 And 🗣️ DON'T 💯😂😂😂
Beyonce loves her brown liquor. To be honest I think this is the most real project she has embarked on.
I love that she keeps trying and doing what she desires regardless 🤷🏾♂️ .
What exactly is Beyonce purpose if not to sell things? She has completely commodified herself into a band.
Why you singling out Beyonce? What about the other celebs who trying to suck us dry??
Her visual says ooo dirty 😅😂
Of course they know people do that. That's the whole point of marketing the products.
You a big mad fan of J LO obsessed with something you didn’t pay for “visuals” 😅 u need to invest in some therapy 😊 bloop sad to see her talk about a black artist 😅
Why does he keep touching his hair, clapping his hand😂😂😂
ABOUT TIME SOMEONE TALKING ABOUT SOME REAL $HIT❤
She don't even help her little sister. She's a hater.
And this message should also be pointed toward damn near body on this here internet, because hunny these vultures are out here.
I personally believe that Rihanna is passionate about her brands and I think that’s why she’s not fulfilling music cuz that’s not what she was passionate ate about. But I do love that we have more access to Rihanna than Beyoncé.
A lot ppl forget that Jay z plays a huge role in everything that Beyoncé does.
Jay Z and also Beyonce's mom. As someone else pointed out, the Cecred haircare line was likely her mom's idea.
Yeah nobody is worried about cowboy Carter we still stuck on renaissance
i understand what you're saying about celebrities using their likeness to sell things but we have to stop this toxic celebrity culture of ownership. we as consumers do not own these people. selling one's likeness is not selling your humanity, your right to privacy. if you like someone's art, support their art, but under no circumstances do we as consumers OWN these people.
Not me.. I'll watch everyone else support people (celebrities) who don't support them (regular ppl) ! I'm good 😂 🤷♀️😂😅
That's a good question? If any man still loves his sin of homosexuality, and has no interest in repenting, and being right with the LORD JESUS CHRIST, then they just need to leave true Christian churches and go to the FAKE churches with their FAKE pastors that support them on the road to HELL!
FACTS
I stop supporting Nicki after finding out who she’s married to
I’m sure you have no problem supporting white owned liquor companies and buying hair products from “black owned” brands which are really owned by whyte ppl. This is why we can’t progress.
