The “Anaconda” rapper defended her almost two-weeks-late response by referring to the rappers who came before her. I just personally think it would’ve been so much cooler…if we came together and made something insane. But, then again, the video could just be Minaj’s attempt to use their star power to promote her newly released songs. She knows how short our attention spans are, and has reacted appropriately with a selfie here, a nipple pasty there and a song that Remy Ma won’t be able to escape – no matter who gives her props on it or not. The stakes higher and the standards for lyrical excellence are lower than the originators of the practice likely ever imagined. Oh, you mean back to whack/ Back to back?
Nicki posted about the song on Insta (and disabled comments), dedicating the song to “all the bad ass, intelligent, strong, loyal women out there”. That’s my baby. Maybe y’all might see something in the future.
“Here at Young Money, we don’t do diss records, we drop HIT RECORDS and diss u ON them”, Minaj rapped. “The greats took 3 months to respond to diss records”, she explained.
In addition, Nicki also wrote a lengthy Instagram post to further insult Remy.
Teaming up with Drake and Lil Wayne, the self declared Barbie lets rip. To prove she can.
Others felt like even though Minaj came back with three responses, they were all weak in comparison to Ma’s “Shether“. Her last mention on the chart came in 1998.
Can anything similar be said for “Shether”? No. On No Frauds, Nicki spits “tried to drop Another One, you was itchin’ to scrap / You exposed your ghostwriter, now you wish you were scrapped”. Minaj wants the popular vote to decide.
It’s D-Day in the world of hip-hop. It was stated earlier in the week that the reason ShEther has died down is because Nas shut it down. Rather than following in Drake’s footsteps and finishing the beef before her opponent could respond, Ma instead left the door open for an easy retort. That will be tough. The couple, who each have a child from a previous relationship, also learned she may no longer be able to conceive naturally. Making commercial ear-worms is her strength.
It fits the culture as well.
