“I’m Queen Of Rap”- Nicki Minaj Claims

• Nicki Minaj proudly referred to herself as the “Queen of rap.”

• She said this in response to a question about her Halloween costume.

Hip-hop artist Nicki Minaj proudly referred to herself as the “Queen of rap.”

She said this in response to a question about her Halloween costume.

“The same thing I was last year…The Queen of Rap,” she stated.

Her remarks have generated a range of responses on social media.

Minaj has faced rivalry with other female rappers for years regarding who holds the title of the best.

Despite being the best-selling female rapper worldwide, Minaj has never won a Grammy award.

Earlier this year, she believed she had finally won after more than 20 years in her career when the Recording Academy’s official X account accidentally tweeted that ‘Barbie World’ by her and Ice Spice had won Best Rap Song, instead of Killer Mike’s ‘Scientists & Engineers.’

However, her joy was short-lived as the organizers removed the tweet and posted again, declaring ‘Scientists & Engineers’ as the actual winner.

In other news, Nigerian artist David Adeleke, often known as Davido, has remarked that Africa’s present cultural rebirth has a good impact on the continent’s image.

He stated that the global success of genres such as Afrobeats, as well as Africa’s cuisine and overall culture, had gained respect for Africans in the Western world.

Speaking in a recent interview with Kiss Fresh UK, Davido said, “This summer, I was in Europe a lot. I had like two gigs, but I was on vacation. And I saw that the landscape has changed. Two years ago, when I was in Europe, they were playing Afrobeats for straight one hour.

“I mean, people love Afrobeats. Everybody likes that sound now, even in America. Even when we want to collaborate with American artists and we want to do their own sound, they are like, no, no, let’s do Afrobeats.

“Now, the narrative [about Africans] has changed. The respect is there. Not only in music but in fashion, food.”
