Remy Ma - Shether (Nicki Minaj Diss) [New Song]

10 Savage Lines From Remy Ma's Nicki Minaj Diss "ShETHER"

Following some lines she perceived as shots on Gucci Mane and Nicki Minaj's "Make Love," Remy Ma has shared a response to Nicki in under 48 hours (word to Nick Nolte). It's one 7-minute verse, and Remy isn't afraid to get as dirty and personal as possible, so there's a lot to pick through, but we've chosen out a few of the most shocking disses on the record. Read through them and listen to the new track below. Did she go too far?

"Let's be honest; you stole that line 'bout bitches being your sons

How you take my '09 jail tweet and run?

Talking 'bout "bringing knives to a fight with guns,"

When the only shot you ever took was in your buns!"

"And I saw Meek at All-Star; he told me your ass drop

He couldn't fuck you for three months because your ass dropped

Now I don't think you understand how bad her ass got

The implants that you had put in her ass popped!"

"Left your day 1 'cause you heard he was on some cheat shit

Then got with the dude that told you on some creep shit

But what happened to Omeeka? No, on some G-shit

Left him and took a pic with the dude he had beef with

And we all know it was a beef that you started

Pillow talkin out of your ass, man, this bitch retarded"

"Been through mad fools, you disloyal hoochie

Now all of a sudden you back with Drake and Tunechi?

After you said you sucked his dick, you back with Gucci

Who next, Puff, Deb or 50? You a A-list groupie!"

"Only time up touch a trigga's when you fuck Trey Songz

Coke head, you cheated on your man with Ebro

I might leak the footage of you sniffin' them ski slopes"

"You said you never fucked Wayne, how stupid I look, B?

You named yourself Nicki Lewinski, the mind of a rookie

'Cause you was suckin' his dick, and now he tired of your nookie

You claimed you never fucked Drake, now that's when you took me"

"Stop talking numbers, you signed a 360 deal 

Through Young Money, through Cash Money, through Republic

Which means your money go through 5 niggas before you touch it

Any video, promotions come out of your budget"

"She the one out here misleading the black girls

All these fake asses influenced by that girl?

Dying from botched surgeries, what a sad world

But before the butt job, you was a Sponge Bob

Suckin' cock for records, captain of the cum squad"

"And I got a few words for the moms of the young Barbz

Guess who supports a child molester? Nicki Minaj

You paid for your brother's wedding, that's hella foul

How you spend money to support a pedophile?"

"I got trigger fingers, you got bitter fingers

You must think you Drake, and I'm Twitter fingers

VH1 watch this, you just got bodied by a Love & Hip Hop bitch"

A post shared by Nicki Minaj (@nickiminaj) on Feb 15, 2017 at 11:04am PST

Nicki Minaj bares a little more skin than usual in her latest IG post.

Nicki Minaj has been teasing something big all week long. On Wednesday, the Queens bombshell dropped a new photo on Instagram, where she appears topless on a bed. Her six-inch high heels, wraparound shades and panties leave little to the imagination.

“When u a stripper but lately u really been thinkin bout leavin the game,” Nicki captioned the pic.

The post is the latest in a series of risque pictures the rapper has been posting since a week or two. Minaj, who hasn't released a studio project in a little over two years, still has a lot on her plate in 2017. She sings "Bom Bidi Bom" with Nick Jonas on the Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack, and will link up with Lil Wayne and David Guetta on the latter's next album.

Speaking of Weezy, Minaj and Drake reunited with the New Orleans spitter for another photo session on IG. Wayne Tha Carter V is expected to come out any minute now. 

NEWS UPDATE: Meek Mill Makes It Clear He Wasn't Behind Nicki Minaj Burglary

Meek Mill Makes It Clear He Wasn't Behind Nicki Minaj Burglary

"Do it look like I rob people?"

Earlier this week, Nicki Minaj's L.A. home was burglarized for $200,000 in jewelry, with sources reporting that personal items like picture frames and clothing were intentionally damaged and destroyed. The alleged "personal" nature of the robbery led to fans discussing and joking about the possible involvement of Meek Mill, who dated Nicki for over a year before the two broke up in January. Insane as the idea is, Meek was still asked about the burglary by a TMZ cameraman last night. The Philly rapper made it very clear that he had nothing to do with the break-in.

"Do it look like I rob people?" he asked, hanging his chains out of his car window. "I got about 450 on my neck, about 80 on the wrist. Do I look like I rob people?"

When the paparazzi followed up with a question about whether Meek had spoken to Nicki since the burglary, he quickly shut the conversation down. "You asking too many fucking questions about my personal life. Get to it," he said, before closing his window on the paps.

Last we heard, Meek Mill was in the studio with DJ Mustard working on some new music. He released his long-awaited DC4 mixtape last year.

ORIGINAL NEWS

Nicki Minaj's LA Mansion Robbed For $200K

Nicki Minaj has been robbed.

Bad news for Nicki Minaj. Earlier this week, the Young Money rapper's Los Angeles mansion has been robbed. With the inside trashed and much jewelry snatched, the total amount taken is estimated to be $200K. 

It's been speculated that the attack may have been personal, as picture frames, clothing, and perfume bottles were found gratuitously destroyed. Based on the amount of furniture that was flipped over, it seems as though the burglars were frantically searching for something. It was a break-and-entering.

Nicki was out of town during the burglary, and thus far, there are no suspects. Police are still browsing Nicki's security footage.

We're not naming any names, but you never know. Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Nicki Minaj Slams Ex-Boyfriend Safaree Samuels For His New Song

On Wednesday (June 10), Nicki Minaj’s ex-boyfriend Safaree “SB” Samuels released the snippet to a song entitled “Love the Most.” SB opens up about his 12-year stint with the Young Money MC, claiming he deserved more credit for her career, among other things. In response to Safaree’s song, the Queen of the Barbz hopped on Twitter last night to share her thoughts.

Her first few tweets were directed at SB for his lyrics. Nicki basically tells Samuels not to try her, and to tell the truth. The “Truffle Butter” rapper also seems to be saying that she may have done too much for SB, or perhaps let too many things slide. Despite their rough patches, it looks like Nicki doesn’t regret the 12-year run, but is happier then ever now that she’s moved on. Onika just wants the world to know that she’s completely over it and totally in love with her new man, Meek Mill.

Since last night, she’s deleted the first few tweets, but you can view them all below.

God gave me a good heart. I always let ppl get over on me way too long. But that's why I'm blessed. I'll always b blessed. May God keep u

NEWS: Jay Z Wants TIDAL To "Extend The Album Cycle" & Restore "Fair Trade" In Music

Jay Z Wants TIDAL To "Extend The Album Cycle" & Restore "Fair Trade" In Music

Jay Z shares some insight into the goals of his new streaming service, TIDAL.

There was no way the announcement of TIDAL was going to go down without a surprise, but while plenty of people thought they had it figured out (an album drop from Rihanna or Kanye West), no one predicted the actual unveiling -- the huge cast of musicians who co-own the service.

Despite sharing ownership with Kanye West, Rihanna, Madonna, and many more, Jay Z's name has been attached to the service for the last few weeks, and it was Hov who gave the first interview on the goals of the company with Billboard today.

Jay revealed in the sit-down that he's attempting to make sure that everyone involved in music (those behind the scenes moreso than the artists) gets their fair share, as well as his goal to maintain a consistent output from artists that isn't limited to an album cycle.

Check out some excerpts from Jay's #NewRules below. Read the full interview here.

On restoring "fair trade" in music:

Definitely. For someone like me, I can go on tour. But what about the people working on the record, the content creators and not just the artists? If they’re not being compensated properly, then I think we’ll lose some writers and producers and people like that who depend on fair trade. Some would probably have to take another job, and I think we’ll lose some great writers in the process. Is it fair? No. If you put in work, everyone else, you go to work you get paid. That’s fair trade. It’s what our country is built on.

On what he wants out of TIDAL:

Artists come here and start making songs 18 minutes long, or whatever. I know this is going to sound crazy, but maybe they start attempting to make a “Like a Rolling Stone,” you know, a song that doesn't have a recognizable hook, but is still considered one of the greatest songs of all time, the freedom that this platform will allow art to flourish here. And we’re encouraging people to put it in any format they like. It doesn't have to be three minutes and 30 seconds. What if it’s a minute and 17, what if it’s 11; you know, just break format. What if it’s just four minutes of just music and then you start rapping?

On whether it will offer exclusives from artists:

Well, it’s up to the artist. You know, there’s a thing now, it’s called the album cycle. You put your single out, promote it, then another single -- I think that now for an artist an album cycle doesn’t have to end. They’re on Instagram and Twitter and all these things, so we’re just talking about ways of extending that album cycle, and it could be anything. What if it’s a video offering tickets to the next concert, or what if it’s audio or video of the recording process? It could be anything. It could be them at home listening to songs that inspire them. Anything they want to offer, you know; just be as creative as possible, that’s the only charge, really. Make it look really good and make everyone that consumes it think, “Man, I got something really great.” Treat the people with respect; make it memorable.

NEWS: Nicki Minaj Felt Disrespected By Tyga Over "Truffle Butter" Leak, Is Banking On Lil Wayne & Birdman Working Things Out

Nicki Minaj Felt Disrespected By Tyga Over "Truffle Butter" Leak, Is Banking On Lil Wayne & Birdman Working Things Out

Nicki Minaj opens up about the recent Cash Money drama in an interview with BBC Radio 1 Xtra's Charlie Sloth.

There's a whole lot of drama going on at Cash Money these days, but for the most part, there's only a couple of major figures we've heard from directly. Lil Wayne and Tyga have made their feelings clear, but artists like Nicki Minaj and Drake have been less clear about taking sides (though conspiracy theories suggest Drizzy's whole new tape could be read as a middle finger to Birdman). In an interview with BBC Radio 1 Xtra's Charlie Sloth today, Nicki spoke a bit about the situation, and it seems like she'll be letting things play out for the meantime.

"I don't think it'll ever get to that point," Minaj said of whether she would leave the label with Wayne. “People know I love Wayne and I have loyalty towards him, but I love Baby too. I’m very close with Baby and I don’t think people know that. So I’m banking on the fact that they’re going to work this out like family. I mean, they’ve gone through things before, just like family does. I’m not even going to think that way".

The subject later turned to Tyga, who publicly bashed Minaj on Twitter, which Nicki revealed was over her song, "Truffle Butter"."The song was on my album, and *we don't know how* but it magically ended up in Tyga's hands, and I told him 'that's my song'," she said. "I told him me and Drake were going to be on it, and low and behold, it leaked with him on it after I told him not to put it out. I thought that was a little bit disrespectful because I had always shown him love."

The two have since worked things out according to the Pinkprint rapper. "He texted me later, and he apologized, and he said 'you always were there for me' and I respected him for saying that," she shared.

The leak certainly didn't hurt the song's radio play, which is strong enough that Nicki isn't even planning a video. "Truffle Butter" is the #1 Urban/Rhythmic song in America without a video, so it's like when a song is that successful without a video, I don't know if we need one," she explained. "It was just for the streets, for the love, we weren't really gonna shoot a video to be honest."

De'Von Pickett and Eric Parker, who had flown to Philadelphia to assist Nicki Minaj with her tour rehearsals, were both stabbed outside of a bar in the city last night. Pickett died from his wounds, while Parker is still in critical condition. 

According to Nicki's post on Instagram, the two men had been in town for the tour for two days before the attack. She described the event as "Another senseless act of violence that took the life of a great guy. So sad."

Fabolous has also expressed his condolences for Pickett, and extended prayers for Parker. The rapper explained that he had worked extensively with both men in the past, and described them both as hard-working and loyal.

NEWS: Ranking Kanye West's 6 Albums From Worst To Best

Ranking Kanye West's 6 Albums From Worst To Best

We attempted the impossible task of ranking Kanye West's six solo albums.

This was hard. This was really hard. Mostly because we love all of Kanye West's albums. They've each played a unique role in the progression of hip-hop (and music in general), each pushing the boundaries of his sound and offering something new to the table.

However it's fun to really dissect a great artist's work, and Kanye's is no different. His music (and his antics) has been the subject of much conversation amongst music critics, news anchors, and even our president. So why not try and pick a first and worst when it comes to Mr. West's output?

That's just what we did, so feel free to agree/disagree in the comments, argue around with each other and embrace some good ol' fashioned musical debate.

Yeezus (2013)

Yeezus wasn't for everyone. It was raunchy, dirty, unique and thrilling, but it wasn't an inherently chill listen at all. Certain songs stick out by themselves and are hard, but as a whole it just isn't on par with the soulful sounds of his previous six efforts.

This isn't to say the album wasn't enjoyable at all, just not as much as the earlier works.

Graduation (2007)

Graduation ushered in a new era of Kanye and was the first glimpse we saw in to the ultra-modern aesthetic that he has been chasing ever since. Beginning with "Good Morning" and ending with "Big Brother" was a perfect move, no less impeccable than the 11 songs that fall in between them.

Where the album falls shorter than the next few is in it's ability to really push the envelope. Collaborating with Daft Punk was definitely a groundbreaking moment for electronica and hip-hop alike, but the rest of the album doesn't carry along the 'unprecedented' vibe. 

808s & Heartbreak (2008)

Departing from the style of his previous three LPs, Kanye West took auto-tune and synthy 80s influences to produce 808s & Heartbreak. The album met mixed reviews off the bat, but is largely considered a classic in 2015, to the point that Rolling Stone listed it as one of the 40 most influential albums of all time.

The album definitely ushered in a new era of hip-hop, and the game hasn't been the same since its release. Evidence of it's influence can be seen as early as Drake's similarly important mixtape, So Far Gone, where he takes on the "Say You Will" instrumental.

Late Registration (2005)

Every song on Late Registration is awesome and unique, but it comes together as a slightly more jumbled work than the next two on the list. Though it may lack cohesion, it still stands as a masterful set of songs.

"Touch The Sky" perfectly utilized a Curtis Mayfield sample, and everyone from Common to The Game added a meaningful feature. In the end, we're left with nineteen classic records, (or 21 on the special version), which is no small task, even for Yeezus.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (2010)

This album is nothing less than a movie. It's one of the most vivid hip-hop albums ever created, if not the most vivid. As soon as Nicki Minaj's opening spoken word leads way to "Can we get much higher?" which precedes a RZA-collaborated beat before Kanye chimes in:

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I fantasized about this back in Chicago

Mercy, mercy me, that Murcielago

That's me, the first year that I blow

How you say broke in Spanish? Me no hablo

Me drown sorrow in that Diablo

Me found bravery in my bravado

D.J's need to listen to the model's

You ain't got no fuckin' Yeezy in your Serato?

(You ain't got no Yeezy, nigga?)

Stupid, but what the fuck do I know?

I'm just a Chi-town nigga with a Nas flow

And my bitch in that new Phoebe Philo

So much head, I woke up to Sleepy Hollow"

The rest of the album doesn't slow down for a second. Kid Cudi, Raekwon, Jay Z, Rick Ross, John Legend and Bon Iver's Justin Vernon go on to compliment Kanye in such a way that you can not simply dumb down their performances with the word "features." It was an incredible joint effort that truly put Kanye West on top of the music world.

The College Dropout (2004)

It was really hard to rank The College Dropout first, but it's kind of hard not to rank Kanye West's first album as his best. Introducing the best 'best producer on the mic' since J Dilla, Kanye West took the world by storm with singles like "All Falls Down," "The New Workout Plan," "Jesus Walks," and "Slow Jamz." They acted as an incredibly diverse quartet of singles that may have made Kanye the most versatile MC right off the bat.

It also was the debut of a man who could make his own music to rap on. This was at a time where hip-hop had gotten a little stale, and most singles were cookie-cutter tracks that rapped about money or bad-mouthing women. Kanye didn't completely disregard those themes, but was able to focus largely on more relatable topics through the concept of college registration.

The LP also wasn't short...not by a long shot. Twenty-one songs is a lot, even if a good handful were skits. The breadth of the album was probably the best since Jay Z did The Blueprint, of which Kanye had his hands in as well. It was clear that hip-hop was getting a new king, a new GOAT, a new legend in Mr. Kanye West. And nothing has been quite the same ever since.

Birdman and his very big crew was turned away from Nicki Minaj‘s pre-Grammy party in West Hollywood early Sunday, and cops raced over to make sure things didn’t get out of hand.

There’s talk Nicki is going to bail on Birdman’s Cash Money and follow Lil Wayne, so the fact that the mogul was sent walking seems like a big deal.  He showed up at 1:45 AM and the club is supposed to close at 2, and you hear a guy at the door tell Birdman’s posse the club was already closed.

At the same time, there was a good 15 minutes left and Birdman’s kind of a big deal, and that may be why you hear someone say that Nicki didn’t want him in.

Either way … he didn’t get in.

Nicki Minaj Thinks Black Artists Like Kanye West Are Afraid To Take Political Stances

In times of crisis, there are always cries for artists to be more vocal—even when there is an abundance of gripping protest music.

Nicki Minaj has the answers, Sway. In a new feature story for Rolling Stone, Minaj addresses head-on the hesitancy for some black performers to take political stances. “[L]ook what happened to Kanye,” she points out, referring to West’s infamous claim that then-President George W. Bush “doesn’t care about black people” during a Hurricane Katrina telethon.

“People told him to apologize to Bush!” Minaj continued. “He was the unofficial spokesman for hip-hop, and he got torn apart. And now you haven’t heard him speaking about these [murders and non-indictments], and it’s sad. Because how many times can you be made to feel horrible for caring about your people?”

In the story, Minaj also touches on the abortion that has “haunted” her all her life, her working relationship with West, and promoting positive body images for young girls.

The Pinkprint is out now.

Nicki Minaj Acting In High School Play

A clip of Nicki Minaj acting in a play for her High School has surfaced online.

While she's toned dow the voices to a certain extent, Nicki Minaj will always be a theatrical performer. This can be partially credited to her experiences as a theatre student in High School, and while we were always sure Nicki was a star from way back, we've never actually seen any evidence of her High School acting.

A new clip has just surfaced which shows Minaj (or back then, Onika) acting out a fairly intense scene, and working with a teacher on her role.

Nicki's album "The Pinkprint" debuted at number 2 on the Billboard chart this week.
