Nicki Minaj has extended the conflict beyond Cardi B. The 42-year-old rapper set the internet on fire with a series of tweets on X that took jabs at Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and even their kids.
The drama began when Minaj fired shots at Jay-Z over a disagreement related to a beat that involved The Weeknd and her album, “Queen.” In a now-famous tweet, she accused him of being upset because she refused to give him a beat, stating, “Jay Z got mad that I wouldn’t give him a beat… He said it’s Beyoncé’s beat & HOEBERSON just laid down & let them take it & then sue me for remaking a similar beat.” Her posts only escalated from there, including more pointed insults toward Jay-Z.
However, what truly caught fans off guard was when Nicki drew the children into the discussion. In a controversial tweet, she provocatively remarked, “Camel, let’s talk about YOUR KIDS today. THAT’S on the docket n**a! shuffles papers.” This comment left many stunned and was widely shared online.
This latest round of drama follows an already tense exchange with Cardi B earlier that week, where the insults escalated to both women targeting each other’s children. Nicki reportedly called Cardi’s daughter, Kulture, “ugly,” while Cardi responded by mocking Nicki’s son, Papa Bear. What initially seemed to be a rivalry centered on music has now put family dynamics in the spotlight, raising concerns about how far the feud can really go.
Reaction across Twitter and Instagram has been intense. Some fans have branded Nicki’s comments as “disgusting” and “out of pocket,” while others feel Cardi opened the door to this kind of exchange by mentioning kids first. Regardless, the consensus seems to be that children should be kept out of adult disputes.
