Nicki Minaj vs. everybody? Here's why the rapper is crashing out on X
If you're on X, chances are your feed has been dominated by Nicki Minaj's latest spiral on the platform. The Queen of Rap is not holding back and this time she's dragging everyone down from Megan Thee Stallion to Jay-Z and the entire Roc Nation empire into the mess. But if you're wondering why this is happening, you're not alone. You're not alone. Here's a breakdown of what's going on. Nicki Minaj It all started when Megan Thee Stallion… From a deep dive into her account, it looks like the spiral started when a federal judge denied Megan Thee Stallion and Roc Nation's motion to dismiss a lawsuit filed by cameraman Emilio Garcia, who alleged he was forced to watch Megan have sex in a car during her European tour. About the ruling, Nicki posted a cryptic Bible-laced post on X that many saw as a direct shot at Megan: 'What was the name of that law again????????? Karma's Law? Touch not my anointed law? Vengeance is the Lord's law?' She ended the post with: 'We give God the glory & he's only just begun… More money for me. We're working. Trust.' Let's not forget: the two rappers have had a turbulent history since 2024, starting with Megan's diss track Hiss and Nicki's clapback Big Foot. So, yeah, there's definitely no love lost here. Then came Jay-Z and the missing millions Next on Nicki's hit list? Jay-Z. First, she reposted a claim related to a resurfaced paternity suit against Jay-Z, originally shared by 50 Cent, writing: 'Oh is this why he was trending the other day? Idk. I hope all is well. To God be the glory.' Then she turned up the heat — accusing the rapper of shortchanging her in the sale of TIDAL. Back in 2015, Jay-Z acquired TIDAL for around $56 million and brought on a group of high-profile artists, including Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, J. Cole, and Madonna, as co-owners to help promote and contribute exclusive content to the platform. Reports at the time suggested each artist received a small ownership stake, roughly 3%. However, when Jay-Z later sold a majority share of TIDAL to Jack Dorsey's Square (now Block Inc.) for $302 million in 2021, questions began to swirl. According to Nicki, she was promised equity, but when Jay-Z sold it, she claims her expected payout mysteriously vanished. Nicki estimates that she's owed between $100–200 million, and even promised to use some of that 'missing' money to pay for her fans' education. She further shaded Jay-Z for allegedly overlooking Lil Wayne in favour of Kendrick Lamar for this year's Super Bowl Halftime Show. Enter Roc Nation At this point, Nicki is coming for the entire machine. She also reignited her beef with Roc Nation, the management company she has been accusing of trying to stifle her career after she chose Young Money over them. She also wrote a flurry of messages attacking Rock Nation CEO Desiree Perez. 'Let's see if they have any thoughts on that DESIRAT pardon. Let's see if they have any thoughts on brother billionaire never campaigning for Kamala even after Obama pleaded with the 'brothers,'' Nicki continued. 'Isn't this THEE 'brother'?!??!! Thee one 'brother' who could've probably gotten the job done for yall?!?!!!! Welp. If the top brother in charge can leave yall hanging w/o repercussions then may everyone else leave you hanging as well. Hanging like my cousin's friend's balls 🏈.' What about her cousin's balls? It all started with a 2021 vaccine tweet — the one that claimed her cousin's friend in Trinidad suffered swollen testicles and became impotent after getting a COVID-19 shot. According to her, the man was just weeks away from getting married when his fiancée called off the wedding. 'If I get vaccinated, it won't be for the Met,' she wrote at the time, adding that she needed to 'do more research.' The bizarre claim instantly went viral, prompting memes, headlines, and even a response from Dr. Anthony Fauci, who firmly stated, 'There's no evidence that it happens, nor is there any mechanistic reason to imagine that it would happen.' Nicki seems to be cracking under a combination of industry politics, unresolved beefs, and maybe a little too much time on X. But if there's one thing she's doing, it's making sure nobody forgets her name this week.

Nicki Minaj Calls Out Roc Nation Over Allegations Including JAY-Z Paternity Rumors, Megan Thee Stallion Lawsuit
Nicki Minaj has channeled her brethren in music, 50 Cent, savagely calling out Roc Nation for allegations against some of the management company's associates. Starting off with Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez, Minaj posted a screenshot of a video 'calling out' Perez for allegedly 'abusing' her daughter Demoree. According to the video, Perez allegedly held her daughter against her will and physically assaulted her. 'Oh no what's going on The Shade Room?!?!!!! Help!!!!!,' Minaj captioned the post. According to NBC6 South Florida, the lawsuit came about last month, revealing serious allegations against Perez, including using her influence and wealth to have her daughter, Hadley, wrongfully institutionalized in a mental health facility for two weeks. According to the suit, Hadley claims she was detained without clear cause, supported by medical records and bodycam footage showing officials directing her into a vehicle. A doctor's evaluation reportedly cited family claims — including from Perez and an aunt — that Hadley had attempted an overdose, which she denied. The lawsuit also accuses Perez of interfering in Hadley's marriage to Javon Hadley by fabricating domestic violence claims. Perez previously sued Javon for alleged abuse of her daughter, which both he and Hadley deny. Hadley was released in April after Perez dropped the case. Minaj then followed up with another post taking jabs at both JAY-Z and Megan Thee Stallion. Reigniting conversation surrounding Hov's alleged son — whom has been seeking a paternity test from the Hip-Hop icon – Minaj called out the ongoing legal matter. 'Oh is this why he was trending the other day? Idk. I hope all is well. To God be the glory,' she captioned a photo of Jay placed beside Raymir Satterthwaite. The headline of the screenshot also claimed that a judge has requested to move forward with Raymir's request for a paternity test proving whether or not Jay is his biological father, thought this has not been substantiated. The 31-year-old has continuously pleaded with the mogul and businessman to take the test so that he can get answers about his identity. 'If he is not [my father], why can't he prove me wrong?' Raymir told Daily Mail in an interview. 'Go to the courtroom and do what everyone else has to do. I can take a no. I can take being embarrassed. I just can't take him not saying anything. It is not fair.' Lastly, the Pink Friday rapper called out Megan Thee Stallion's impending lawsuit just as a federal judge ruled that a sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit against the Texas rapper can move forward. In a cryptic post, Minaj wrote, 'What was the name of that law again??????? Karma's Law? Touch not my anointed law? Vengeance is the Lord's law?… the blogs posting lies, thank you. More money for me. We're working. Trust.' Minaj referenced a prior jab Meg took at her husband Kenneth Petty in her song 'Hiss,' where she rapped, 'These ho*s don't be mad at Megan, these ho*s mad at Megan's Law/ I don't really know what the problem is, but I guarantee y'all don't want me to start.' The line was aimed at Petty, who is a court ordered registered sex offender due to an incident that took place when he was 15. The timing of Minaj's post comes on the heels of U.S. District Judge Gregory H. Woods allowing Emelio Garcia's lawsuit against Megan — born Megan Pete — to proceed. Garcia, Megan's former cameraman, alleges he was harassed and retaliated against due to his sexual orientation. He claims that in 2022, while in Ibiza, Megan engaged in a sexual act with another woman in his presence, made degrading remarks about his appearance, and later cut his hours and pay before firing him when he spoke up. The judge found Garcia's claims plausible, noting that the behavior he described could support a hostile work environment based on his sexuality. Megan and her team have strongly denied the allegations, calling Garcia a 'con artist' and his lawsuit 'baseless.' Unless a settlement is reached, the case is expected to go to trial. Minaj's vengeance against the powerhouse label partially stems from Young Money CEO and iconic rapper Lil Wayne being snubbed of Super Bowl performance slot in his hometown, New Orleans. Instead, Kendrick Lamar was tapped to headline the biggest night in football. In response to the decision, Minaj went on a scathing rant against JAY-Z on X, as he currently holds the title of 'live music entertainment strategist' for the Super Bowl Half Time show. She also sent shots to the Blueprint phenom in her verse on Weezy's 'Banned From N.O.' calling out the Super Bowl snub again and Jay's position. She rapped, 'NFL, fire some ni**as and then call us!' Megan Thee Stallion, JAY-Z nor Desiree Perez has responded to Nicki Minaj as of publication. VIBE has reached out to Roc Nation for comment and has not yet received a response.

Nicki Minaj Says JAY-Z Owes Her $200 Million From Her Equity In Tidal
Nicki Minaj is escalating her public feud with JAY-Z as she has now made a claim that he owes her up to $200,000,000 tied to her equity in Tidal. Minaj, who was one of 15 artists gifted a three percent stake in the streaming service at its 2015 launch, said she was offered only $1,000,000 for her share after the company was sold to Jack Dorsey's Square for $302,000,000 in 2021. 'We've calculated about 100-200MM so far. #JayZ call me to settle this karmic debt. It's only collecting more interest,' she wrote on X, adding that despite the financial dispute, 'You still in my TOP 5 tho.' The global icon also referenced her philanthropic goals, stating that any money recouped would help fund her #StudentOfTheGame initiative, designed to cover tuition and student loans for fans. Yesterday (July 8), Minaj directed further criticism at Roc Nation members when she called out CEO Desiree Perez, sharing a screenshot of a video that accused Perez of abusing her own daughter, Demoree. The video alleges that Perez held her daughter against her will and physically assaulted her — claims that have not been verified. Minaj then reignited speculation about JAY-Z's alleged paternity case involving Raymir Satterthwaite, a man who has long claimed the Hip-Hop mogul is his biological father. Sharing a screenshot of a headline claiming a judge recently approved the continuation of Raymir's request for a paternity test, Minaj captioned the image: 'Oh is this why he was trending the other day? Idk. I hope all is well. To God be the glory.' The paternity suit has not been publicly confirmed by JAY-Z. Minaj also came for Megan Thee Stallion just as a federal judge ruled that a sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit filed against the Houston rapper by her former cameraman could proceed. In a pointed post, Minaj wrote, 'What was the name of that law again??????? Karma's Law? Touch not my anointed law? Vengeance is the Lord's law?… the blogs posting lies, thank you. More money for me. We're working. Trust.' The post appeared to reference Megan's 2024 song 'Hiss,' where she took a vague jab at Minaj's husband, Kenneth Petty. On the track, Megan rapped, 'These ho*s don't be mad at Megan, these ho*s mad at Megan's Law/ I don't really know what the problem is, but I guarantee y'all don't want me to start.' The line referenced Petty's status as a court-ordered registered sex offender stemming from a 1995 case. Minaj's latest online rant comes amid increasing scrutiny of Roc Nation and some of its high-profile artists and executives. As of now, neither JAY-Z, Perez, Megan Thee Stallion, nor Roc Nation have publicly responded to Minaj's claims.

Nicki Minaj ‘Megan's Law' Mocks Megan Thee Stallion For Cameraman Lawsuit Setback, Cardi ‘ENOUGH' Enters The Chat
Nicki Minaj is letting her X fingers fly, this time, seemingly subbing Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B, and Jay-Z. Source: Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, and Megan Thee Stallion via Getty Images Following news that a federal judge denied Megan Thee Stallion and Roc Nation's motion to dismiss a lawsuit filed by her former cameraman, Nicki took to social media with a myriad of messages seemingly aimed at her longtime rival. The initial Instagram post read: 'What was the name of that law again????????? Karma's Law? Touch not my anointed law? Vengeance is the Lord's law? We give God the glory & he's only just begun. Have a blessed day if you can. lol the blogs posting lies, thank you. More money for me. We're working. Trust.' Minaj seems to be referencing 'Megan's Law,' which is an….interesting choice on her part. Meg referenced the same law–a federal law in the United States requiring law enforcement authorities to make information available to the public regarding registered sex offenders–in her diss track against Nicki, 'HISS.' 'Aye, these hoes don't be mad at Megan, These hoes mad at Megan's Law,' the Houston native raps on the song, referencing the fact that Nicki Minaj's husband, Kenneth Petty, is a registered sex offender. Interesting for her to draw more attention to that on her own accord. Minaj's post comes just a few days after reports confirmed that a lawsuit filed by a former cameraman against Megan Thee Stallion and Roc Nation would go forward, according to Billboard . The man alleges he was forced to witness a sexual act involving Megan and another woman while inside a moving SUV in Ibiza during her 2022 tour, saying the incident created a hostile work environment based on his sexual orientation and that his pay and benefits were later cut in retaliation. In her next Instagram post, Nicki took aim at Jay-Z, posting a side-by-side of him and Rymir Satterthwaite, a man who has long claimed to be the son of the rapper. The 31-year-old has spent over a decade in a legal battle seeking answers about his identity, and while it's unclear where it came from and seems to be inaccurate, the screenshot Minaj posted claims 'a judge has granted Raymir's request to move forward with his case.' 'Oh is this why he was trending the other day? Idk. I hope all is well. To God be the glory,' she wrote in her caption. Over on X, Nicki went on a slew of other rants, first tweeting something that many fans thought to be a sub at Cardi B. Cardi made headlines this week for deleting all evidence of boyfriend Stefon Diggs off her Instagram, sparking rumors of a breakup. 'It was all good just a week ago 😀,' she wrote, seemingly mocking the end of the rapper's relationship. She also doubled down on her mocking of Meg, tweeting about the lawsuit moving forward. 'Oh no. What was that law again? Bwajahaahahhaajajajajajajajajajsssss,' she wrote, adding a GIF of her throwing her head back and laughing. She continued, 'Being a gay man doesn't give any woman the right to sexually grind on you or have sex in front of you. I remember seeing someone grinding on their hair stylist & he seemed so uncomfortable.' She then returned her focus to Jay-Z, once again referencing claims she's echoed for the past few years that she is owed millions of dollars from the rapper for promoting his Tidal streaming service. 'We've calculated about 100-200MM so far. #JayZ call me to settle this karmic debt,' she wrote. 'It's only collecting more interest. You still in my TOP 5 tho. Let's get it nigga. And anyone still calling him Hov will answer to God for the blasphemy.' In the midst of Nicki's tweetstorm, Cardi entered the chat, simply telling her to 'shut the f**k up' in what many assume is a reply to Nicki's recent rants. She continued, 'Go to dinner ,go shopping, go to the park …Get off the internet…ENOUGH!!' Enjoy these looks and day …..and ignore the bored ….Love yall ❤️❤️❤️.' While Megan Thee Stallion has yet to reply–and we know Jay-Z won't say a word–Cardi's tweets just might be enough for another rant from Nicki. So, stay tuned! The post Nicki Minaj 'Megan's Law' Mocks Megan Thee Stallion For Cameraman Lawsuit Setback, Cardi 'ENOUGH' Enters The Chat appeared first on Bossip.

Nicki Minaj taunts Megan Thee Stallion after judge allows Roc Nation lawsuit to proceed
Nicki Minaj has been known to hold a grudge, and this time is no different. The Grammy-nominated rapper went off on former collaborator and foe Megan Thee Stallion, after a judge denied a motion to dismiss a lawsuit against the "Savage" rapper and her management, Jay-Z's entertainment company Roc Nation. "What was the name of that law again???????? Karma's Law? Touch not my anointed law? Vengeance is the Lord's law," Minaj wrote on Instagram July 8 in reaction to the news. The caption is in reference to Megan's 2024 diss track "Hiss" against the Queens, New York, rapper, in which the Houston native raps that people "don't be mad at Megan," but they're "mad at Megan's Law." For background, Megan's Law is a federal law that requires registered sex offenders to provide personal information to local law enforcement agencies. Minaj's husband, Kenneth Petty, and her brother, Jelani Maraj, are both registered sex offenders; however, Megan Thee Stallion didn't mention Minaj or her family on the track. "We give God the glory & he's only just begun," Minaj continued. "Have a blessed day if you can. lol the blogs posting lies, thank you. More money for me. We're working. Trust." USA TODAY has reached out to Megan Thee Stallion's team for comment. Nicki Minaj sued by former employee for assault after Detroit concert In an April 2024 lawsuit, Emilio Garcia, who worked as a personal cameraman for Megan Thee Stallion from 2018 to 2023, accused the "Hot Girl Summer" rapper of harassment and creating a hostile work environment. Megan Thee Stallion sued by former cameraman, accused of harassment and weight-shaming In one incident, Garcia alleged that Megan Thee Stallion, whose real name is Megan Pete, had sex with a woman beside him while they were in an SUV together after a night out in June 2022. After the SUV incident, Roc Nation allegedly altered Garcia's compensation structure in August 2022 in a way that resulted in him earning "significantly less," and fired him in June 2023 "in retaliation," he claimed. A lawyer for Megan Thee Stallion said in a statement to USA TODAY at the time that the lawsuit is "an employment claim for money … with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her." A federal judge denied a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, according to Billboard, on grounds that Garcia, who is gay, "plausibly" pleaded that the SUV incident "created a hostile work environment based on" the man's sexual orientation.
