Nicki Minaj is fed up with people attempting to manufacture a beef between her and Cardi B. Black Barbie went on a Twitter rant on Tuesday (October 31) about a conspiracy theory started by Everyday Struggle host Joe Budden, who claimed Minaj didn’t know Cardi was appearing on Migos’ “Motor Sport” single.
“I was on the song w/Quavo,” she tweeted. “No one else was on it. He called & asked if I think we should put Bardi on it, I said ‘ok let’s do it’. The end.”

The Pinkprint rapper shared some more details about the track’s creation, expressed her frustration with the wild speculation and laid out some facts.
“Migos weren’t even on it yet,” she continued. “Just Quavo. The conspiracy theories r just so tired. Relax. Breathe. Imagine me not knowing who on a song w/me. Anything w/my name on it gets approved by me,” she noted. “It can’t even go on a streaming service w/o me hearing it & giving written approval.”

Minaj then blamed men in Hip Hop for trying to stir up a beef with Cardi. She also claimed this doesn’t happen to male rappers.
“These are men in our culture who simply refuse to let it go,” she wrote. “They don’t do this to male M.C.’s. But yo #Motorsport #1 added on urban radio.”

Cardi commented on the situation in her typically frank manner in a recent interview with Complex.
“People wouldn’t be satisfied even if [we]was making out,” she said.
Minaj agreed, retweeting a clip of Cardi’s interview and reiterating the point.
“Very true,” she tweeted. “We could make out & it wouldn’t be enough. I’m done.”
Very true. We could make out & it wouldn’t be enough. 🤣 I’m done. https://t.co/ONvFx14jPD
