The internet is ablaze after Nicki Minaj and Stephen A Smith clashed over Kendrick Lamar’s upcoming Super Bowl Halftime Show. While fans of Lamar celebrated, some Lil Wayne supporters were upset, seeing it as a snub to the New Orleans native. Minaj didn’t hold back, taking to social media to vent her frustrations, accusing Jay-Z and his label of sidelining Lil Wayne out of spite.
Minaj’s intense criticism included claims like, “Denying a young black man what he rightfully put into this game for no other reason but your ego,” suggesting that Jay-Z’s personal grudges were behind the decision. She also implicated Birdman and Drake in the mix, adding more fuel to the fire.
Stephen A Smith, known for his outspoken nature, addressed Minaj’s rant on his show. He was not impressed by her dragging Jay-Z into the mix, stating, “Every time we turn around it’s something, Nicki. You disagree with the decision… but you have to talk to a brother like that?” Smith’s comments clearly didn’t sit well with Minaj.
Taking to X, Minaj fired back with a barrage of mocking tweets. She seemed to confuse Smith with another public figure, Shannon Sharpe, who recently made waves for an Instagram mishap. Minaj tweeted, “Oh look yall another paid laughy taffy alien who only comes off his knees to turn around & back dat azz up. LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Stephen, we don’t care. Ima tell u right now. We don’t care. If I say more it’ll be your fault. Sit down ugly.”
Minaj’s tweets didn’t stop there. She went on to mockingly ask, “Stephen wasn’t you just moanin & groanin on live in your bedroom? LMFAOOOO. And since we here in women’s business…ladies; when should men just shave their full head? Should it take its normal course like SAS Sassy ass or should he look into lace fronts?” Her words struck a chord, showing she wasn’t about to apologize or back down.
This dramatic exchange between Nicki Minaj and Stephen A Smith has certainly added more heat to the already fiery Super Bowl Halftime debate.
