00:01Nicki Minaj responds to Cardi's recent rant in a new video.
00:05Plus, Nicki gives insight on how she writes her verses.
00:10Hey guys, it's Ali for Hollywood Life.
00:12And recall some time ago when Nicki Minaj decided to help pay for some of her fans' tuitions?
00:17Well, those students actually surprised Nicki and thanked her when she visited TRL.
00:21You said you've been telling us to go to college and to be a boss and to get your education forever.
00:26So, you are the reason why I'm going back to school.
00:29And now you're the reason why I'm gonna be able to finish school and pursue my career.
00:32And it just means everything.
00:35From money to honey, Nicki served up a lot of tea when speaking to Genius
00:40and revealed why she gets upset when people claim she uses ghostwriters.
00:44What if one day, after you had put ten years into your journalism career,
00:48someone started going around and telling people you never wrote those amazing articles?
00:52How would you feel?
00:54Yeah, nah. It's all you got. All I have is the work that I put in.
00:59So, people have the audacity to be angry at me for defending my craft?
01:05Are you stupid?
01:06Damn, she makes a great point.
01:08Nick, you're fired. I'm writing my own scripts.
01:10He told me to say that.
01:12But okay, Nicki doubled down on her comments saying rappers who don't write their rap
01:16should not be treated with the same level of respect as those who do.
01:20Don't be walking around here like you that nigga or you that bitch if you don't write raps.
01:25Rappers write their raps.
01:26You know how they used to say when grown folks is talking, stay up.
01:29Mind your...
01:30Baby.
01:31Baby.
01:32When writers are...
01:33Just shut the...
01:34Just relax.
01:36You don't do this.
01:37Nicki has a point.
01:38It's kind of like when Michael Scott quoted Wayne Gretzky and passed it off as his own.
01:42It's a little weird.
01:43However, this doesn't mean Nicki doesn't get help.
01:47Yes, Nicki does get help.
01:48But from Google, like the rest of us.
01:50Like you're a girl.
01:51How do you get so in-depth with sports stuff?
01:53I said, Google is your best friend.
01:56Anybody that wants to rap...
01:58And this is true shit.
01:59Like, if you want to rap, Google is your...
02:02Is my best friend.
02:03Speaking of Google, just did a quick search and apparently people think that Cardi is performing at this year's VMAs, but she's not.
02:10Disappointed!
02:12Cardi revealed on Instagram she'll be opening the VMAs, but not performing.
02:16So there's a big difference here, guys.
02:18Speaking of the VMAs, I was actually at Radio City a few hours ago checking out the venue and it looks like Cardi and Nicki will be sitting a good distance apart from each other.
02:27So we'll have to wait and see if an awkward run-in or an iconic moment of unity happens.
02:32Just wanted to keep you guys informed.
02:34But, alright guys.
02:35Recall Cardi addressed comments made during Nicki and Funk Flex's interview.
02:39Well, it seems like Nicki may be responding back to Cardi when talking to Ebro on Queen Radio.
02:45I didn't know Cardi and I had an issue, but I guess we do it since we're saying it.
02:50You know, other people are saying it.
02:52To me, she may have taken an issue with things that I've said, but I'm not going to bite my tongue.
02:58I mean, this is right. You gotta be, you gotta be, you gotta have thick skin.
03:02People talk shit about me all the time.
03:04I don't go around and tell people, oh, stop posting me because I see one bad thing about myself.
03:08You can't expect to be liked and loved and praised all the fucking time.
03:11Give me a break.
03:12If you come, you coming into the wrong game if you want just people to kiss your ass and suck your dick all day in my name.
03:17They're like, come on.
03:18Speaking of needing a tough skin, I recently read a lot of hate comments.
03:22I read it all! I read all your crap!
03:25I just need to say for both the Bardi Gang and the Barbz that I have love for both Cardi and Nicki.
03:30I'm here to give you guys the news and tell you what they're saying and doing in an unbiased way.
03:35But of course, I'm going to make jokes about everyone.
03:38Everyone!
03:39Both of these artists are influential boss ladies and taking over the music industry,
03:43so don't get it twisted that I'm really shading either of them.
03:47Anyway, rant over, spread love and tea and let me be.
