Hey everyone, welcome! There’s some buzz stirring between Trina and Nicki Minaj, all sparked by Nicki’s collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion. So, Nicki and Megan recently teamed up for a track titled “Hot Girl Summer,” enjoying a lively Instagram Live session and even shooting a music video for the song.
Now, word has it that Trina wasn’t too thrilled about this because, while Nicki swiftly filmed with Megan, she didn’t do the same for their own collaboration, “BAPS.” In case you missed it, Trina and Nicki dropped “BAPS” this year as part of Trina’s album “The One,” with Trina eyeing it as the album’s flagship single, eager to shoot a video pronto. However, Nicki seemed to have a string of excuses for why she couldn’t commit to filming. Hmm, quite the situation!
So, I’m featured on her album, and we have a track called “BAPS,” which we just played. What’s the deal with the “BAPS” video? I had to bring it up on Queen Radio because the messages from Paigey are driving me nuts. I’ll be honest here. Trina was supposed to shoot this video ages ago, but things got messy. I wasn’t even aware she was dropping that—I wasn’t really on social media. Then suddenly, boom, we’re in it, but the video’s still MIA. Now, I’m clueless about the next steps. We gotta hear from the fans because they’re demanding answers—or rather, a video. They’re not happy with me about it. It was supposed to be a priority, but nope, didn’t happen. What went wrong? Well, let’s point fingers at Republic and Universal and all the bigwigs involved because you have no idea the hurdles we’ve faced. It’s been a mess. I get it, there’s been a lot going on—tours, personal stuff. And now, after Megatron’s dropped, if there’s a baby bump, count me out for shooting videos. We might as well turn it into a baby shower video.
It seems like the speaker is expressing their desire to simplify things and avoid additional work for themselves, suggesting that they will procrastinate otherwise. They mention setting something up quickly before certain circumstances change, like a pregnancy. They joke about pregnancy and having joint baby showers. Then, they discuss Nicki Minaj’s decisions regarding music collaborations and mention some discontent from Trina’s team. Finally, they quote someone from Nicki’s A&R team expressing frustration.
I’m eagerly anticipating how this situation unfolds because karma always has its way. It’s truly disheartening. My sympathies lie with those who are unaware of the deceit and manipulation their leader perpetrates. Today, I refuse to stay silent. #TeamCardiB.
Reginald recently gave an exclusive interview with Funky Dyneeva, and I’ll share a snippet of what he had to say about Nicki. Despite attempts to reach out, Trina was unsuccessful in contacting her. We would text her, but her whereabouts remained unknown. It’s as if Nicki disappeared off the face of the earth.
I tried to salvage the project by suggesting we find someone else for the video, but it didn’t go down that way. Nicki was initially on board, then vanished. While I understand if she couldn’t commit, leaving us hanging like this is just plain disrespectful. I’ve been in the industry for a long time, and I’ve never left anyone in the lurch. It feels like karma in action. You hear stories about this behavior, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt. To treat Trina, someone you call a friend, like this is beyond belief. When you’re in the midst of it, it’s shocking how things unfold.
