Cue the theatrics. Nicki Minaj now has smoke for the Grammys.
Artists have constantly blasted the Grammys over the politics played in choosing the winner. Nicki Minaj is the latest to take aim at the Grammys. The rapper responded to a fan who found it weird that Nicki’s been in the rap game for years but never took home an award. “Nicki Minaj has been at the top of her game for too long to not have had a Grammy. I don’t know what white man from the boards she pissed off,” the fan wrote. Well, it looks like Nicki’s ready to spill all the alleged tea after she claims white man from the Grammy committee has allegedly gotten in the way of her Grammy.
“I pissed off the same man Ariana called out for lying. Grammy producer KEN [Ehrlich],” she revealed. “I was bullied into staying quiet for 7 years out of feat. But I’ll tell my fans the REAL on the next episode of #QueenRadio they deserve the truth.”
She added, “Also, CONGRATS to everyone who won last night,” which seems to also include Cardi B who she spent rivaling for the majority of 2018.
I pissed off the same man Ariana just called out for lying. Grammy producer KEN. I was bullied into staying quiet for 7 years out of fear. But I’ll tell my fans the REAL on the next episode of #QueenRadio they deserve the truth.
Also, CONGRATS to everyone who won last night. 🙏🏽 https://t.co/YjmoIOPt6o

Ken Ehrlich previously had some harsh words for Nicki’s 2012 performance at the Grammys which may be apart of what Nicki herself said in her tweets. In a 2012 interview he pretty much said the organzier’s were greatly disappointed with Nicki’s Grammy performance of ‘Roman Holiday’ where Minaj basically staged an exorcism.
“I was not proud of what we did with Nicki Minaj three years ago,” he said. “I thought that was a disappointment both in terms of what we did and to an extent what she did. I’m not going to absolve us of any responsibility, but it just wasn’t good. If it had been controversial and good, I think I would have been proud of it. But we probably let out the string a little too much on that one.”
For a reminder of that performance, take a look below. All of this just seems really unnecessary and tacky. Who exactly is going to win from this? This could only bring Minaj into a deeper hole with what the general public outside of her fans views her as currently. What do you guys think?
