Rapper Nicki Minaj reached out to Florida congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna for help over alleged threats a DJ and streamer made in response to her social media beef with SZA. <\/p>\n
MackWop, an associate of the record label Top Dawg Entertainment, chimed in on the feud during a livestream, telling Minaj: \u201cHey, Nicki, relax, relax before you get put in a blender like your boy did.\u201d SZA is signed under TDE. <\/p>\n
Minaj, whose real name is Onika Maraj-Petty, re-posted a clip of the livestream on X<\/a> Thursday, writing, \u201cIs this a threat?\u201d She tagged the FBI in her post. <\/p>\n \u201c@MackWop did you just threaten to harm me? @FBI I want this man investigated right away,\u201d she wrote in a follow-up post<\/a>. <\/p>\n According to Complex<\/a>, MackWop could have been referring to the feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, who is on the same Young Money Entertainment label as Minaj. <\/p>\n The \u201cSuper Bass\u201d rapper, however, didn’t take the comment lightly and made a post addressing Luna, who previously made headlines for calling for the release of rapper Tory Lanez after he was convicted of shooting rapper Megan Thee Stallion in the foot in 2020. <\/p>\n \u201c@RepLuna this man just publicly threatened me,\u201d Minaj posted<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve notified the FBI & CIA. I want this thug locked up & I\u2019m ready to talk about everything these ppl have done to me.\u201d<\/p>\n Luna said she would help Minaj. <\/p>\n \u201cCan confirm, I spoke with @NICKIMINAJ directly and will be doing everything we can to ensure her safety,\u201d the Republican congresswoman said. \u201cWe take threats of violence and assassination very seriously. RICO is also illegal. I am deeply concerned that there has been unchecked corruption within certain aspects of the rap industry. Artists should be respected and not afraid of managers, labels, etc.\u201d <\/p>\n Earlier this week Minaj took a few jabs at SZA, whose real name is Sol\u00e1na Imani Rowe, while coming after Top Dawg Entertainment founder Punch, according to Complex<\/a>. In a lengthy, vulgar post on X<\/a> on Thursday, Minaj claimed that she was originally asked to be featured on Drake\u2019s song \u201cRich Baby Daddy\u201d instead of SZA. <\/p>\n \u201cHe wanted me & sexy on it. I still have the version of just drake & sexy,\u201d she posted, referring to rapper Sexyy Red, who is also featured on the song. <\/p>\n The pair continued to go back and forth with Minaj calling SZA a \u201cclown.\u201d<\/p>\n NBC News reached out to representatives for both Minaj and SZA but did not hear immediately back. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rapper Nicki Minaj reached out to Florida congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna for help over alleged threats a DJ…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20558,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[57],"tags":[236,88],"class_list":["post-20557","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20557","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20557"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20557\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20558"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20557"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20557"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20557"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
