Nicki Minaj is as of now occupied with doing her promotion run for the current week in help of her fourth studio collection Queen, which dropped last Friday in front of timetable. On Monday, before Nicki's appearance on Stephen Colbert broadcast, she chose to share in an iHeart Radio meeting with Power 105's DJ Self, and things rapidly went South. It's as yet not precisely realized what the course of occasions were to get Nicki so hot, yet she just took to Twitter to go off on DJ Self. Obviously, DJ Self was speaking crap about Cardi B to Nicki Minaj, trusting that would influence Nicki to fuck with him, yet rather his arrangement exploded backward. Also, when Nicki left the station, Self reneged on what he told Nicki and after that began dissing Nicki, saying Cardi had the best female collection of the year. Nicki at that point bounced on Twitter and went off on Self, saying he was pissed she wouldn't complete a drop or give him an embrace, before going ahead to consider Self an "intense tool", who's VH1 indicate sucks dick. With everything taken into account, it sounds such as Self needed Nicki to spread talk about Cardi B, yet when she wouldn't do it nor give him a drop, he backpedaled on his assertion and then adulated Cardi after Nicki left the station, saying Cardi had the best collection out. Look at Nicki's twitter tirade (beneath) and search for her to clarify more on it Thursday on her Beats 1 radio show.
