They’re coming for the queen. Nicki Minaj claims that there’s a movement to see her demise and that female rappers are being paid by labels and management companies to diss her, all for clout. While speaking with Rah Ali during a Stationhead listening event for her single “Red Ruby Da Sleeze,” Nicki voiced her thoughts on the state of hip-hop and the “microwaveability” of today’s artists. “As you rap and you write, you get better. And you get better every day,” said Nicki. “But I think the thing is now, because of the…microwaveability of TikTok artists getting deals and Instagram people getting likes or Twitter people…girls’ labels and management companies paying for viral tweets and paying for Nicki diss tweets and all that.” Nicki, who is launching her own label, believes that the art of lyricism is lost and that it’s unfair to compare her to others who don’t write their own rhymes. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ghlagatindotcom/support
