Nicki Minaj<\/a> has a lot on her mind, and customarily, isn\u2019t holding any of it back.<\/p>\n

The rapper hopped on X\/Twitter today, October 15th, to cancel her highly anticipated new album, which was expected in March 2026, while teasing her retirement from music and appearing to blame JAY-Z<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOk I\u2019m not going to put out the album anymore. No more music,\u201d Minaj tweeted<\/a>. \u201cHope you\u2019re happy now,\u201d tagging JAY-Z before ending the message with, \u201cBye, Barbz. Love you for life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nicki\u2019s fans, aka the Barbz, have been waiting for a follow-up to the rapper\u2019s last full-length, Pink Friday 2<\/a>, which was released in 2023. Just last month, she tweeted the date \u201c3.27.26\u201d next to a CD emoji, which many took as the release date for her next album. While she now says the music isn\u2019t coming out, that tweet<\/a> remains pinned to the top of her Twitter page.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The JAY-Z connection seems to trace back to her ongoing feud with Roc Nation, which was reignited last year when she criticized Jay and the company for booking Kendrick Lamar for the 2024 Super Bowl Halftime Show in New Orleans. According<\/a> to Minaj, that slot should have gone to New Orleans native Lil Wayne.<\/p>\n

In her current tweetstorm, Minaj hit out at both Roc Nation and its CEO, Desiree Perez, claiming that the company was \u201cbegging\u201d<\/a> her for a tour and an album, while chiding JAY-Z for his recent failed attempt<\/a> to open a casino in New York City\u2019s Times Square.<\/p>\n

\u201cOH BROKE NATION how\u2019d you go so fkng broke? Like who in their right fkng mind would sign to you?\u201d Minaj posted<\/a> on Twitter. \u201c[JAY-Z] let me find out you gon let Desiree take the fall alone. I don\u2019t blame you.\u201d<\/p>\n

In another tweet, Minaj called out\u00a0Perez again, claiming, \u201cYOU GOT BIGGER FISH TO FRY BOOKIE. conspiracy. False imprisonment. Civil rights violation. Oh cock nation yall suck,\u201d in reference to a post that included a news clip claiming the rapper is at risk of losing her Los Angeles mansion.<\/p>\n

It has been suggested that Minaj\u2019s ire at Roc Nation stems from her\u00a0claim<\/a> that she\u2019s owed between $100 and $200 million related to her stake in TIDAL, the music streaming service JAY-Z launched in 2015, and was later sold to Jack Dorsey\u2019s company Square for a reported $297 million.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey don\u2019t want me to put out music. Me winning makes them feel like they lost. They\u2019re right,\u201d Minaj shared in another tweet. \u201cFuming b\/c they can\u2019t siphon anymore energy, money, blessings, love, grace, joy, PEACE\u2026 the culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

This latest round of beef follows Minaj\u2019s recent war of words<\/a> with Cardi B, during which the two rappers exchanged vicious insults, including Cardi describing Nicki as \u201ca possessed drug addict,\u201d and Minaj labeling Cardi\u2019s seven-year-old daughter Kulture as \u201ca roach & a monkey.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ok I\u2019m not going to put out the album anymore. No more music. Hope you\u2019re happy now @sc<\/a> <\/p>\n

Bye, Barbz. <\/p>\n

They don\u2019t want me to put out music. Me winning makes them feel like they lost. They\u2019re right. However, it didn\u2019t have to be this way. Lots of ppl part ways in business. They know how successful my next album is going to be. Tried to sign Wayne, Drake, me. So they keep wanting to\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/YH4ePk3NEm<\/a><\/p>\n
