T-Boz Defends Nicki Minaj Comments: “She Can Rap Her A** Off”

Yesterday, via an interview with the UK’s ‘This Is Max’, TLC singer T-Boz came under fire when she suggested that televised talent shows were more routed in the popularity and not the talent of their judges.

Accused of taking aim at ‘Catch Me‘ Rapper Nicki Minaj who recently signed onto judge ‘American Idol‘ and Britney Spears who now serves on the ‘X Factor USA‘, today saw Boz– born Tionne Watkins– address her statements via social networking site Twitter.

Her new explanation below…

 She shared:

Tionne T-Boz Watkins ‏@TheRealTBOZ
I’m laughing at y’alI guess u told me huh lol My whole comment wasn’t about chick but some of the guest appearances & not Brittney at all

Tionne T-Boz Watkins ‏@TheRealTBOZ
& it’s not a diss these shows are based on popularity & bringing in the viewers & bringing their numbers up not based on picking talent lol

Tionne T-Boz Watkins ‏@TheRealTBOZ
Oh don’t trip I meant what I said & there will be no take bk & chick can rap her ass off and she sounds good singing her song but 1 has

Tionne T-Boz Watkins ‏@TheRealTBOZ
Nothing 2do w/ the other I’m in this bizz all this crap is fact & its based on bringing in numbers now and NOT really why it was originated

Tionne T-Boz Watkins ‏@TheRealTBOZ
So get mad…scratch ya ass…take a picture I don’t but Remb it I’ll say what I want that doesn’t mean I don’t like or respect someone lol

Tionne T-Boz Watkins ‏@TheRealTBOZ
I’ll say what I think &always will I think it’s funny the truth is the truth ha the name calling **** is hysterical cuz I don’t wanna watch

Tionne T-Boz Watkins ‏@TheRealTBOZ
I don’t hv a problem w/ Nikki I don’t like what the shows stand for. Where’s the lil yellow bus beep beep. But if I did pls know I’d say so.

    these talent shows are part of the reason why music is mostly s*** now. originality/creativity is discouraged

    • Trev November 9, 2012

      so people are just gonna act like T-Boz can sing???? I don’t care that TLC was amazing, T-Boz can’t sing!!!! she has an unique sound which is why i think she was lead cuz even Chilli is a better singer…and not to drag Chilli cuz i love her but T-Boz talking about sucking to get into the business…ummm Chilli got pregnant by the boss soooo um yea

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        She got pregnant twice actually… OOP !

        She had an abortion by Dallas the first time…

        DEATH @ ppl acting like TLC was a sqeaky clean No-Gimmicks group…

      • credits November 9, 2012

        T-boz has a very distinctive voice, and it worked for the music that tlc was recording. Not every woman in this industry needs to sound like whitney houston and mariah carey. T-boz knows her voice and i don’t think she ever tried to do anything she couldn’t do, and that’s why she always sounds good on a tlc record.

      • Trev November 9, 2012

        when did i ever mention Whitney or Mariah?…clearly not everyone in the industry needs to sound like them because no one does….the point is T-Boz can’t sing, not because she doesn’t sound like whitney, it’s just because SHE CAN’T SING! lol….I love TLC, BUUTTTT T-Boz could never sing….she just had a weird voice that worked for the group…but to call Nicki, Britney, Demi Lovato, and JLo out like that imma need YOU to be able to sing…and she can’t

      • Stormy August 21, 2014

        Ok, “Trev” are you really in any position to say anybody can’t sing, I don’t see your ass on TV, I haven’t heard songs by you, and oh what’s the other thing, I don’t think you’ve ever sold 65 million anything in your life so to find you something to do, insulting someone with a diamond star voice like T-Boz really ain’t helping you. Go hate on someone else, or better yet, if you want to feel good about yourself, learn how to sing. T could be your role model

    • the real xoxo November 9, 2012

      @FAF umm your precious darling Nicki had an abortion at 17.

      • Trev November 9, 2012

        we are talking about s** within the business not prior to that…i only brought that up because T-Boz is calling out females for sucking their way to the top, yet her groupmate Chilli was sleeping with the boss…I am def not looking down on women for having abortions…BUT having a baby by the boss def confirms you were sleeping your way to the top…HOWEVER i love Chilli, I love TLC…but T-Boz gotta chill…also she’s trashing reality tv yet her tv show is coming out soon

    • toohotfortv November 9, 2012

      but when was Dallas ever the boss, h**. in regard to TLC (at the time of chili’s pregnancies) Dallas was not a record executive. He was a producer…. so…. umm… what are u saying?

      • Trev November 9, 2012

        ok I’m sorry…she slept with the producer…is that better?…my message remains the same though

    • credits November 10, 2012

      Trev, what gives nicki minaj the credentials for judging a singing competition? Answer that…

  2. That B*tch (God loves Obama) November 9, 2012

    Lol @ her criticizing Nicki only to defend it by complimenting her.
    Irrelevant h**.

    • coco November 9, 2012

      “irrelevant”?
      well, without tlc and other great people – there will be no nicki minaj. so shut ur pipehole.

    • FAF November 9, 2012

    • David Banner December 17, 2012

      She never criticized her in the first place. She never mentions one persons name in her original comment. You bought into the hype that the media, including this blog, fed to you and for that you are a sheep. A stupid stupid sheep. And how irrelevant can she be when she is the spokes person for Sickle Cell anemia, a former guiness world record holder for highest selling female group of all time, entrepreneur, singer, song writer, and producer of music and movies? — Yeah okay…

  3. Cookie November 9, 2012

    Huh? I didn’t understand a word she said!

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      THANK U !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE NEED TO SLAM A TEXT BOOK ! #NEXT

      • truth( im known to DRAAAAAAGGG a b**** chile) November 9, 2012

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        After u, F***………….. U pressed over the queen success ?

        She damn sure dont get it sitting on blogs hating !!

        Now do something productive, FALL BACK F*** !

  4. FreedomOfSuperbass November 9, 2012

    To think this is someone I grew up admiring. In TLC she’s a legend but as a solo artist she couldn’t be anymore ratchet or irrelevant.

    • That B*tch (God loves Obama) November 9, 2012

      Yes gurl, yessss!!!!!

    • SG3 November 9, 2012

      She’s the same person in a group or solo; so if she’s ratachet she’s ratchet in both scenerios. #commonsense. And why are ppl/kids so outraged when one celeb says something about another. Ya’ll on this thread cussing TBOZ (and Minaj) out. If ya’ll can say what the f*** is on ya’ll mind why can’t she? And BTW T-boz and Left Eye ain’t never bite their tounge behind or in front of the camera. That’s that ol’ skook way lol!

  5. WomanToWoman November 9, 2012

    It’s so funny how people always come at Nicki but end up eating their words. Lil Krim, Stevie Legend Nicks and now T Couldn’t Pay My Mortgage Boz.

    • MC November 9, 2012

      It had nothing to so with apologizing to Gimmick, it has everything to do with backtracking from media backlash and saving face….

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        ^^ U MAD NICKI AINT APOLOGISE TO FAT RIAH ? KIII

        U. . WILL . . DEAL !

        SHE MAD THEM GOONS COMING AFTER HER TO REPO that 05 rented van ! OOP !

      • MC (Benron is a Ritabot) November 9, 2012

        Clearly you and your fave are both mad Mariah is getting $18 mil/season on idol while Nick’s entire net worth is $12 mil. #thestruggle I hope The Re-Flop does better than PF:RRefloped. LOL

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        I dont give a F*** what she getting

        Nicki getting 12 mil after being in the INDUSTRY 2 yrs !

        DEATH @ Re-FLOP

        u know the titles f***, so apparently she doing SOMETHING RIGHT

        U’ll be buying just like the rest of y’all bandwagon haters

        WHAT DID MARIAH LAST ALBUM SELL ?

        DAMN SURE NOT PLATINUM LIKE THE QUEEN !

        SIT DOWN, UGLY ..

      • MC (Benron is a Ritabot) November 9, 2012

        I know you aren’t able to read and comprehend like a normal human being, so I’ll try my best to make it idiot-friendly.

        1. I have never bought anything from Gimmick in my life and I will not start now….lol (are you f****** serious?)

        2. In the first two years of Mariah’s career she had 5 #1s, 2 Grammys, two albums selling over 10 million in the world, writing and producing her albums, earning mad money, etc….and not engaging in feuds every other day with celebrities or jumping on every ship (sinking or not) to stay relevant like Roman-psychopath.

        3. Seems like every post I have to remind your dense, rusted brain that Nicki has yet to sell over 650,000 copies of Roman Reflopped and she got certified Platinum based on SHIPPMENT. Mariah’s worst selling album (MOIA) sold more than 500,000 album in the U.S. and 1.5 million in the world (more than PF:RR); her tour projected $9 million and she had 1 top 10 hit (her 27th) and obsessed was certified Platinum making her the artist with most platinum singles. #getyourlife

        4. The Re-Flopped will flop harder than all her new singles and do worse than PF:RReflopped. #POW

  6. KimmyBlanco November 9, 2012

    WHY THE F*** DID YOU SAY THAT T! Now her stupid fans gonna think you pussied out.

    • OMG (Is that you rihanna?) November 9, 2012

      suck many d****

  8. BOB November 9, 2012

    She speaks truth i love Tboz she will never be irrelevant shes in one of the biggest girl groups ever so will go down in history

    True that music industry is bad now cos of talent shows
    and true that Nicki can rap her ass off (when she puts her mind to it see mix tapes moment for life, monster verse)
    but couldnt and shouldnt judge a singer cos she has no vocal ability skill or anything

    and its sad all the nicki stans take to twitter to give tboz s***
    she said the truth and what everyone is thinking

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 9, 2012

      lol. I think the same thing. Nicki isn’t much of a singer but a better rapper. I said this on another post and the barbs thought I was hating. I was just being honest. But I still don’t agree with tboz when she says you HAVE to be a good singer to judge. Maybe you just know GOOD singing. That’s all that matters. Nicki knows good singing. If she didn’t she wouldn’t be having those beast back up vocalists at her shows! Duh!

    • Trini_Minaj November 9, 2012

      Can Simon sing? No! The people who have the ability to judge don’t necessarily need to have the ability to sing, but know about the business itself. They must be stars themselves, to have the ability to spot one. What makes you think that just because someone can’t sing they shouldn’t judge singers? Tell that s*** to LA Reid! Nicki may not be a vocalist like Beyonce, but she can damn well sing a song and sing it well. She has every right and ability to judge talent, as she is one herself!

  9. Monstarebel (RihannaNavy & TeamMinaj) November 9, 2012

    Told y’all this b**** would retract her statement!! bahahahaha

    • SG3 November 9, 2012

      Where did you see a retraction…2nd you and the rest of you minaj crew just based your positioning off of a headline. The entire interview isn’t out and ya’ll on 10. Never once did she mention nicki’s name; she continued her statement saying and now they got rappers judging; so clearly she wasn’t on Nicki…but let’s make this clear. Nicki can’t sing; she has no business (experience/talent wise) judging a vocal based show. but like TBOZ said, get yo money; no one’s hating on that. But if someone ask you a question (as the interviewr did) you provide an answer. Age and experience is such a blessing – it def teaches you how to think and decifer s*** for yourself. Ya’ll tripping off of what this woman said like she said something about ya’ll personally. this STAN s*** is not healthy AT ALL!

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        Girl u typed all that

        FACT REMAINS ! SHE PRESSED OVER THE QUEENS SUCCESS ! BYE UGLY !

      • love November 11, 2012

        @FAF And you read all that!

  10. OMG November 9, 2012

    I guess after she said what she said the welfare cheques stopped coming….

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 9, 2012

      ur avi lololol glozell

  11. Nahjee November 9, 2012

    Ya notice how she saying nicki can rap her ass off now.. Wow what a change of hart I guess teamminaj must have ran a whole in her ass in them mentions.

    It much better to ride with nicki then to go against her since nicki is relevant and she can make you kinda relevant once you do a song or anything with her you know what I mean.

    If Kim would have just nice to nicki should would have had a chance but not anymore

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      ROFL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      YES! IT WILL NOT CHANGE ! NICKI ACTUALLY CONTROLS THINGS BEHIND THE SCENES UNLIKE THESE FLOP B****** PPL STAN FOR ON TGJ

      DON’T UNDERESTIMATE YMCMB ! LIL KRIM AINT RAPPED SINCE !

      • Trini_Minaj November 9, 2012

        Lol

  12. Tim November 9, 2012

    You cannot deny that Nicki Minaj “debatably” is in the making of becoming a legend.. I appreciate T-Boz’s opinion about the American Idol situation, & I appreciate T-Boz’s opinion about Nicki’s rap ability.. T-Boz is far from a hater in my eyes & I’m a fan of Nicki’s..

    • the real xoxo November 9, 2012

      Nicki will never be a legend. know why? she has zero originality. everything shes done we have seen before. irrelevant by 2014.

  13. I Judge Flopz November 9, 2012

    I LOST RESPECT FOR THIS H**

    NOW SHE SCARED. WEAK ASS H**

  14. RITANATION November 9, 2012

    LMAO!!!!! Why did she even say that s*** in the first place knowing damn well she was going to get back fire on twitter with teamminaj smh. Next time just keep you’er mouth shut if you ain’t really about that life.. I knew she was going to eat her words. Nicki probably laughing her ass off saying (I’m a muthafucking monsta) lol

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      KIII !! NOT IMA MUTHA F****** MONSTA !!!!!!! 🙂

  15. !2 November 9, 2012

    At the end of the day what T-Boz did was for buzz and views,she is being a hypocrite and is contradicting her self,she new if she dis Britney and Nicki[Nicki more so] people is going to talk both haters and lovers.

    • Monstarebel (RihannaNavy & TeamMinaj) November 9, 2012

      the b**** was desperate for any type of attention

      • SG3 November 9, 2012

        AND YA’LL WAS READY ABLE AND WILLING TO GIVE IT TO HER…HOW IS THIS EVEN REMOTELY TRUE WHEN SHE DIDN’T BRING UP THE TOPIC? THE INTERVIEW DID…SMH

  16. MUSICHEAD November 9, 2012

    F*** Nicki Minaj delusional ass fans. Nicki is a very talented rapper and one of the best out at the moment HOWEVER she is not a Singer and has no vocal ability. She should not be judging a singing competition PERIOD! But it’s all about ratings not talent and all her ratchet fans who have a problem with that can kiss my ass. To the ones who can respect a little criticism…much love!

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 9, 2012

      I’m not a delusional fan and you are correct.

    • Trev November 9, 2012

      you almost got it right except Nicki CAN sing…and T-Boz can’t

      • MUSICHEAD November 9, 2012

        Actually u can tell that Nicki at some point wanted to be a singer. I think she has even said it. But u have to admit the girl can’t really sing. It sounds cute in her songs but she aint even on Britney Spears level at this point vocally,

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        Girl , bye …

        Not on britney spears level?

        Britney voice has deteriorated over the yrs

        last time she gave a full vocal performance was “out from under” on Circus album in ’08…

    • Trini_Minaj November 9, 2012

      I know you’ve listened to some songs on her album so u know she can sing. She may not be a powerhouse like Beyonce but she can carry a tune. To say she cannot sing is an untrue statement. However, why should only singers be able to judge singers? What’s wrong with rappers?

      • Not a hater January 9, 2013

        Yeah she can carry a tune…..AUTOTUNE! yall know damn wellNicki CANNOIT sing thats why she got the powerhouse background singers DUH

    • miranda November 9, 2012

      Nicki is NOT a singer… but she CAN carry a note. Don’t knock her till you seen her live. She has gotten alot better this year.

      • TJ November 9, 2012

        She really has!!!!

  17. Monstarebel (RihannaNavy & TeamMinaj) November 9, 2012

    You know you the s*** when these so called legends gotta use your name to become mildly relevant again!! Tboz gworl you wish you could get a job at American idol don’t be mad at the next b**** causes she’s getting her coins n you ain’t kiiii your time been up h**

    • That B*tch (God loves Obama) November 9, 2012

      She mad that her house is going on foreclosure and that car is about to be repo’d.

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        OOOHHH GURL., KI !

    • Trini_Minaj November 9, 2012

      What the heck does KIII mean? Lol

  18. Viciousss November 9, 2012

    Real talk, why put yourself out there if you’re not ready for the backlash? NEVER made sense to me. It’s like E-thugging, only makes you look weak when you backtrack.

    Granted I only saw a clip but it sounded like she was doing a LOT of running at the mouth when the facts aint on her side.

    Nicki can’t sing? T-Boz how many people said YOU couldn’t sing back then? Then you say “All that grinding, rolling, sucking penises. WE’RE performers”

    T…I’m a fan from back in the day. You KNOW you girls got so much judgement because folks thought you were too explicit, too slutty, too worried about s** in your songs, making women sound like h***. It’s even the spoken part of the song ‘Fanmail’ in the album of the same name! Grrrlll…”I’m good at being bad” if you forgot YOUR history.

    Smh, sounds like you were rolling during that interview and forgot how much of a hypocrite you look like.

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 9, 2012

      Even Left Eye was leary about the song “Creep” as she said on a TLC documentary cuz she didn’t think the song was right going behind ur man’s back and that’s why she didn’t put a rap verse on there. And I don’t think she even wanted to be in the video at first. She wanted no part in that project.

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        ^^^ EXACTLY …
        Left eye even left the group and was missing& they were trying to find her and reunite remember ? Left Eye was that b**** ! 🙂

      • SG3 November 9, 2012

        Ya’ll really reaching; left eye has a full 16 bars or so on the creep remix; left eye perspective was creeping is one of the ways ppl bring A*** and other sexual transmitted diseases. TBOZ perspective was yes creeping could me sexing; however listen to the lyrics. She’s talking about not receiving attention, affection, etc from your partner.

  19. Claudette Knowles November 9, 2012

    Awwww T-Boz you mad because you’re irrelevant? You can’t even sing your damn self with that flat bass voice. Even Barry White had more range than you! Sure you had a unique voice, but everyone knows that chilli sang circles around your 1999 ass! Girl BYEEEE!!!!!

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 9, 2012

      EXACTLY. I said the same on the other post. She has no ability to be talking about someone else.

  20. Tisha November 9, 2012

    I’m laughing because I love T-Boz and Nicki, but um…

    T-Boz said that she was happy for folks to get their money but she would never watch the show again because “How she gonna tell me when her ass can’t sing?”

    So for clarity…you mad at Britney and Nicki…but your ass was happy with PAULA ABDUL?!?!?!?!

    LMAO, just be real T-Boz, you got a little bitter and you let s*** slip. I DAMN SURE never saw an Aretha or a Celine Dion on one of those shows so I’m not sure where the ‘person who could sing’ was before? Chill honey.

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      Thank u !

      And J.LO (who can not sing live)

      YET ppl wanna get mad @ Nicki ? Chile please…

  21. OMG (Is that you rihanna?) November 9, 2012

    Well Tboz completed her mission….to get bit of relevancy back for at least a few minutes. :))

  22. BEYONCE’S WEAVE November 9, 2012

    What language is this T balls person writing in? It certainly doesn’t look like English. I hate how people like this T balls person are using Nicki’s name to try and score their 15 min. Well T balls person, you’ve gotten a days worth of publicity on the world’s most trashy amateur gay ghetto blog, congratulations.

  23. eric November 9, 2012

    The problem I have with Idol and other similar competitions is that they’re presented as giving complete amateurs a shot at stardom, when the truth is that every producer is more concerned with entertaining and thus looks for singers with a professional background. It’s the same way with So You Think You Can Dance.

    • eric November 9, 2012

      TV producer I mean.

  24. Let’s Be Real November 9, 2012

    It’s always sad when these legends have to retract the shade they throw.Let’s Be Real nobody came for Ellen when she was on AI.Part of being a star is recognizing star QUALITY.Nicki translates on screen and radio very well.Now I love TLC they are my 3rd favorite girl group (behind the supremes and destinys child) don’t taint your legacy by doing these types of interviews Tboz

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      Thank u ! I’m not a professional singer but I know wat sounds good…. Why the f*** do I have to be Luther Vandross to judge talent? =/

      Tboz sit

      • SG3 November 9, 2012

        The same way you can go into a job interview and whether or not if your hired is based on your qualifications and experience. This is about a skill; whether you are a powerhouse vocalist or not, singing is a skill! telling someone you sound good or not is not helpful in the long run. how do you ensure you sound good the next time; by knowing what you need to do to achieve that end result; hence Nicki not qualified; she’s a rapper that is going after that mainstream dollar (fine by me) but that does not qualify her or give her any vocal talent.

      • opd2 November 9, 2012

        SG3 wouldn’t you sat the same about randy and Simon also,how is both of them qualified[both is no form of a singer]ok i,ll wait make up some lam excuse quick.

      • Not a hater January 9, 2013

        opd2 Randy and Simon are the people you go to when you need a hit. They are very credible. They dont sing but they are the people who get you to that next level. What does Nicki do? Nicki can not sing AT ALL she is tone deaf and AUTOTUNED FOR LIFE. Thats not an excuse its the TRUTH. Randy and Simon are the perfect people to be judges on AI. Paula and Jlo brought the entertainment part to the package. They both are incredible performers. Nicki cannot sing, has no stage presence, cant dance.
        WHY IS SHE THERE….ratings and thats all they AI Execs know her fans will follow her and watch a show that is nothing more then a popularity contest that lost its meaning YEARS AGO. The runner ups are usually the better singers anywho..Adam Lambert, Clay Aiken HELLO. Nicki is sadly at her peak lol give her 2 yrs and its a done deal. Stop defending foolery and fuckery
        Nicki is outta place

  25. RDK November 9, 2012

    My be T-Boz would do well with that 12 to just sit and give her opinion,and kick her foot up,FREEDOM…anyways t-boz have a new show coming out….so she was like how can i get some free pub for this sh-t..Oo right let me attacking one of the if not the hottest chick out right now[and she was like let me fling britney in there too thats a plus],she new that the Nicki haters and lovers would put her name out there so said so done,this was just a pub stunt.

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      Yup I heard about that its on TLC network…

      If anything, why didn’t she have Nicki as a guest on her show ?

      Why do you have to bash to gain relevancy ??

  26. DoItToMeRight November 9, 2012

    T Boz girl, you are a HYPOCRITE. You wanna talk about b****** being oversexual but I vividly remember my parents banning some TLC videos in my house because you wore condoms.

    Besides that, you cannot sing yourself and everyone knews it. Your vocal style was spoken word and Chilli was the one who was given all the harder notes. You are really ruining TLCs brand with your ghetto behavior and poor spelling.

  27. Demi Slayvato November 9, 2012

    Nicki must have intercepted her welfare cheques.

  28. tits mcgee November 9, 2012

    Y’all say she can’t sing , yet who was singing in ” waterfalls” ? One of the best songs ever? Toni Braxton has a very manly voice, does that mean she can’t sing? Nicki fans need to admit that she WAS a good rapper ( before she sold out), but that doesn’t mean she’s a singer! STOP acting like ANYONE in the music industry gives Nicki any singing credibility…

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      Honey manly aint got s*** to do w/ it…

      Toni is one of the best singers w/ the best tones EVER !

      T-Boz was not the VOCALIST of TLC, Chilli was !

      Nicki sold out? B**** check “Freedom” #HAVE A SEAT!!!!!!!!!

      U in the minority, boo !

    Nicki Minaj is just a 2nd rate Lil Kim.

    yall just made cause T-Boz who will be more relevant than any of you losers will ever be, spoke the truth and exposed that fake b****.

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      • savonn November 9, 2012

        honeyboobochild, is that why i’ see plenty of TLC mentions right now???

        T-Boz is one person yes, and she did not say anything bad about Nicki, she even said she likes Nicki. BUT, she did speak the truth either way and that’s why yall mad!!!

  31. savonn November 9, 2012

    Nicki stans are so damn stupid. She didn’t even diss Nicki Minaj or Britney Spears. She is telling the truth about how the shows are worried about ratings numbers and not about picking singing talent. The education system is failing us. lol

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      Bye, T-CELLS !

      U right the education system is failing T-boz apparently

      SHE HAS NO GRAMMATICAL SENSE NOR USE FOR PUNCTUATION IN HER TWEETS!!!

        The amount of ignorance, lack of integrity and tack within this rely alone (or in general – this site alone), goes to show the depth of character you and the majority of the Nicki fans have.

      You shaded yourself. The education system failed Grandma Boz which is why she can’t even spell Britney (Brittney) and writes like she was raised on texts. To think this is somebody’s mother acting as low class as this.

      She is truly ghetto.

  32. TeamEveandMissy November 9, 2012

    T-boz told nothin but the truth however she shouldn’t have said anything about singers shaking their asses and suckin penises bcuz tlc shook their asses and were a little sexual also. She gave props and at the sametime still shaded them b******. Tlc r legends…..when u here about big times sellin girl groups u gonna always here their names come up so miss me with that irrelevant s***. Hell they haven’t put out and album in ages and still getting awards so I wouldn’t call that irrelevant. I’m sure she don’t have to use anybodies name bcuz when they go on tour it will sale tickets. U dumbasses trips me out the way y’all carry on. For ur info they booked the american idol stage b4 nicki ever performed on there. American idol invited them 2yrs ago to perform and they performed old songs and they crowd loved it. I doubt nicki will be able to do that 10yrs from now. These artist today have to keep puttin new music out there bcuz it will be forgotten about fast.

    • RDK November 9, 2012

      You are naive,that is what wrong with you people thinking when people sell millions of records in the pass they are set for life,money is something that go,s down over time no matter how much you have,if you are not putting it back filling that void,and it depends and what type of contract they signed with the label,so 90% of that royalty can be for the label,artist don’t make must of there money off record sales it,s off tours,so it,s not surprising are impossible for a legend,on the other hand it,s the group who was legendary not a single individual of the group],so to be dissing a new comer for buzz are some pob isn’t new.

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        Ppl think just because someone sold a bunch of records that makes them an ICON or LEGEND

        its your PERSONALITY and the things you do AFTER you have a seat that makes u a legend

        ARETHA FRANKLIN has been in the game for over 50 yrs

        Do u see her talking about “RIHANNA NEEDS TO HAVE A SEAT?”

        NO, BOO ! She on tour ! That’s a real legend !

  33. ARTPOPPINIT November 9, 2012

    “If It wasn’t for TBoz and Lil Kim, Nicki wouldn’t be here.”

    Did Tboz and Kim call Nicki and tell her to be a Rapper. Were they there when would sit in her cat at night writing lyrics. Or when she would save the money she made from Wall street and Red Lobster to pay for studio time. Or when SHE impressed Fendi and then Wayne. When SHE attracted people and made an entire fan base. When SHE sold 3 million albums worldwide in two years. When SHE got two number one albums.

    The older hip hop girls did what they did for themselves and that’s great, but the new girls don’t owe them s***. Even if 10 female rappers get signed because of Nicki’s success they don’t owe her anything because only they can determine their OWN success.

    TBoz and Chilli showed just how much they needed Left Eye when she left the group and since then they have not been able to catch themselves.I’m just sad we didn’t get to see Left Eye become the star we know she would have been as a soloist.

    And another thing, until these older girls, the Kim’s, the Boz’s, the Eve’s, take responsibility for the mistakes they made in their own careers they will keep on failing. What happened to Eve’s new single, or Kim’s new album? What happened? Exactly.

    • FAF November 9, 2012

      Not a god damn thing… & nothing will happen

      Ppl dont understand labels give you a DEAL

      u owe them albums, after the albums are done, you still have to appeal to another label to get signed

      Lets say kim had a 4 album deal w/ Atlantic

      when she went to prison she asked to be released

      ok but did she work out & look cute when she got out of prison? NO she sat on her ass

      so then no one wanted to sign her

      she went to trackmasters at 30 years old (which hadnt had a hit in years) and signed to their label, broke the contract so now she owes $8m

      she tried to go to YMCMB baby was already grooming / signing nicki

      THATS WHY SHE MAD ! she wanted baby to buy her out of her trackmasters deal ! KI !

      why would they pay to sign you when they can sign a new artist for less money & make her a SUPERSTAR ???

      Ppl dont know how the industry works !

      • FAF November 9, 2012

        These chicks like Eve & Kim want to live off their past success but they dont really have money if u think about it

        Eve only was out for 3 yrs SUCCESSFULLY (’99-2002)

        EVE-Olution was a FLOP!

        Ppl like to say kim been around for 17+ years

        WRONG !

        she been out since ’95 w/ junior mafia SIMPLE MATH

        HER LAST ALBUM WAS 2006 – 1995 = 11 yrs !

        U dont get to factor in years of you not being productive ! KI !

        Nicki been making music since ’07 underground and since ’09 on the RADIO !

        SHE IS NOT NEW TO THIS S*** !

      I like Kim and Eve, but they are VERY, VERY lazy or perhaps had more help behind-the-scenes than they care to admit and now are unable to market themselves and conduct themselves appropriately when meeting with new labels and managers. I highly doubt either Kim or Eve spend more than 5 minutes a week trying to come up with new songs. Eve at least had her TV show and is able to date rich businessmen but Kim really has nothing but debt and angry fans.

      She already has, though honey

      Nicki has almost sold half of that WW and she only on her SECOND ALBUM ! not to mention she got 2 full length albums and a re-release coming out soon !

      Let’s not forget artists still sell records years later, so she very well could be a 17m selling WW artist in the next 15 yrs !!!

  37. RealTruth November 9, 2012

    I dont understand why most of you guys say Nicki shouldn’t be judging because she cant sing. Nicki sings in her own way, she is just not like beyonce or Mariah, lets be honest. I cant sing, but I know a good singer when I hear one. Simon on X Factor cant sing, but he an judge someone with singing talents. What if these shows decide to say only audiences who can sing have the right to vote for their favorite contestant, that wouldn’t seem fair. So the fact that we saying Nicki shouldn’t judge because she cant sing doesn’t sound fair and mean, I wouldn’t like it if someone tells me I cant vote for my favorite because I cant sing. I speak truth from both perspective and I haven’t been rude to no one.

    • ,. November 9, 2012

      They just don’t like Nicki,they feel like she is too new in the game to be making 12 mill off the bat just like that,i bet most of them would have done the show for quarter of the money Nicki is getting.

    • KERI HILSON’S 100% SYNTHETIC BLONDE SHORT CUT WIG FOUND ON FLOOR OF MCDONALD’S STAFF RESTROOM (FOR STAFF ONLY) November 9, 2012

      Nicki can sing just as well, if not better, than T-Boz. T-Boz just has a VERY distinctive and unique voice that was used to make hundreds of millions of dollars for recording industry executives back in the 90s and early 2000s.

  38. TeamEveandMissy November 9, 2012

    No nicki ass don’t need to be on no judging singing talent show bcuz her ass can’t hit a note. I keep hearing y’all say ellen couldn’t sing……no she couldn’t but they asked her to judge bcuz she showed so much love for the show and invited the singers that got voted off on her show to sing or for an interview. She didn’t really critique the contestants like the other judges. She later realized and quit after a year on there. Hopefully nicki will do the same. @faf and @artpoppinit the other girls r taking their time with their lastest projects and not put out trash only to be forgotten about after 2 or 3months its called classic music that last for years to come. @faf u tried it u wack b**** Eve and Kim had songs on the radio without albums out. They had endorsements,tv show,movies clothing lines. Some of the things nicki still tryna accomplish so miss me with that weak s***.

    • opd2 November 9, 2012

      Nicki already accomplish all that stuff you claiming she is trying to accomplish,Nicki did all off that already,now she is judging Idol a new accomplishment that none before her did and as far as i have hear she is doing very well on that panel,Nicki is the first rapper to ever do that and she accomplish alot more things some she is planing to announce soon,she did all that in the short time she bin around,she have drive and ambition she knows what she wants and she works are to bring her dreams to reality.

      • HELL NO B**** November 9, 2012

        HELL NO B**** S***** Minaj is NOT a rapper she is a POP artist!
        Yet there absolutely is no more annoying personality in current popular music than Ms. Minaj. Her fashion, her flow, her dumb little voices, her stupid f****** name — Nicki Minaj is the trashiest, most annoying act going.
        Here’s a complete catalog of why… Her Stupid F****** Name Yes, I prefer the classic double-K spelling of Nikki but that’s not really my issue. We even have a Nicki around the office and she’s OK. But Minaj? This chick’s real name is Onika Tanya Maraj, which sounds like it could do the job. Instead, she switched a few letters to make it sound vaguely dirty – Ménage obviously being a French loanword co-opted to mean threesome. It’s trashy as hell, and every time I hear it I think it sounds like a really dumb pun. At the very least it makes it impossible to take her seriously. Yes, lots of pop tarts play the hoochie game. It sells, I get it. However, it’s doubly annoying that Nicki goes and gives Vibe a quote about how she doesn’t want or need to w**** it up. Not true – starting with that annoying name. Speaking of her claims about not using s**… Her Lack of Respect for Her Obvious Direct Influences
        “When I grew up I saw females doing certain things, and I thought I had to do that exactly,” she says. “The female rappers of my day spoke about s** a lot… and I thought that to have the success they got, I would have to represent the same thing. When in fact I didn’t have to represent the same thing,” Nicki said. This is an obvious shot at ladies like Lil’ Kim who is too old, deaf and incarcerated to play the part of competitor anymore anyway. You’re basically the only chick in the game right now, Nicki, so, please, show a little f****** respect for the person you stole your entire black Barbie image and girly-girl flow from. Speaking of her flow… Her Awful Verse on “BedRock” Might Be The Worst in the History of Rap. Look, “BedRock” is a s***** song to begin with — the surest sign yet Young Money has become the next Bad Boy — but it’s Nicki Minaj’s s***** verse that really makes it f****** unlistenable. Yes, Gudda’s stupid line about being “that Red Bull” is trite and Lloyd’s T-Pain impersonation bothers me, but it’s Nicki singing about being “the bestest” off the top (is the next line actually “like asbestos” — that’s what I’ve always thought?) that really f****** kills it. Like most people, this was the first time I heard Minaj, and I still remember the immediate sense of repulsion I felt when she opened her mouth to do that stupid little kid verse. Again, she got a 360 deal with s*** like that. Well, that and a pretty face, thin waist and huge buns, as Mr. Mix-A-Lot would say. Speaking of those buns… Whatever that Stuff on Her Ass is, It’s Ugly
        Some people say Nicki Minaj got ass implants. Others say she uses b*** pads. She, of course, denies there’s anything unnatural involved in the most condescending way possible, “People will pick anything to talk about, and that happens to be the thing at the moment.”
        Whatever it is, I don’t like it. Hey, I like Kim Kardashian, J.Lo and Beyounce as much as the next guy, but Minaj’s plastic parts are just gross. Disturbing, really. It’s the sort of thing that can totally invert a boner — which is dangerous. Speaking of turning people on… She Uses Trumped Up Claims of Bisexuality to Sell Records. Nicki walks a really, really fine line with her sexuality. On one hand, she wants guys (and some sympathetic women) to totally think she’s bi if they find that s***. On the other hand, she claims an appreciation for the female form but says doesn’t actually hook up with chicks, which is a good way to not alienate slightly more conservative fans.
        She says it’s about “no labels” but I don’t for a second buy that she means that in any way beyond the marketing implications. Sorry to the ladies at B**** Magazine, but Minaj isn’t for real with this — it’s not that she won’t “risk her career” but is dropping “clues” about it — it’s that she’s not that into girls, she just wants to sell records. Or maybe I should put it this way: I hear she really wants to date Anne Heche. But speaking of marketing gimmicks… She Co-Opted the Susan G. Komen Foundation’s Pink Friday Event to Promote Herself Nicki sure knows how to work the media — witness the situation where she scored tons of free ink by doing a little PSA for the breast cancer-fighting Susan G. Komen association the same week her record was dropping. The group’s event, and her album, were both called Pink Friday. What exactly did Nicki do to “help”? Well, she issued a statement and gave a brief interview via Skype — in exchange the group disseminated her statement to their giant media list and played one of her s***** videos on their webcast. “I fully support the efforts of Pink Friday and the goal of raising funds to support Susan G. Komen for the Cure and their charge to bring an end to breast cancer,” said Minaj. “I am pleased to be associated with the Pink Friday initiatives and to raise awareness amongst fellow African American women who are often the hardest hit by breast cancer.” While it makes sense that the Komen group would be excited to have a star on-board — especially if they know very little about her totally offensive career — I can’t seem to find what, if anything, Ms. Minaj did to help the cause besides issuing a brief statement of support and a short interview from the comfort of her own home. No “such-and-such will be donated,” no public appearance, just a few words of support typed by her publicist and a little chat on video with a friendly interviewer. Yeah, this was her “contribution” to the cause.
        Not bad in exchange for getting to plug the name of her album twice in that statement, which was widely distributed to media! So tacky. And so very Nicki.

    This is what happens when you run your mouth. Your ass got served by the Brit Bots and TM and so now you wanna say sorry.

    Back to the unemployment line you go!

    • MUSICHEAD November 9, 2012

      T-boz didn’t apologize…she clarified her statement for those who couldn’t comprehend the point she was making. Honestly she was on point with her statement.

  41. LaLopez November 9, 2012

    You can tell she didn’t go to school.

  42. KERI HILSON’S 100% SYNTHETIC BLONDE SHORT CUT WIG FOUND ON FLOOR OF MCDONALD’S STAFF RESTROOM (FOR STAFF ONLY) November 9, 2012

    Nicki is a fake ass b**** but she is creative as hell when it comes to crafting her lyrics and she’s extremely prolific and can produce quantity AND quality. Yes, Nicki can ALSO sing and is probably just slightly below Rihanna in her ability to sing. This is coming from someone who hates Nicki after watching her reality television show and I have only bought two of her singles many years ago. TBOZ is wrong to be so judgmental.

  43. PYTFROMAL November 9, 2012

    Didn’t really understand what she was saying but shes right about these talent shows and the people who does the judging. It is a popularity contest. Shouldn’t have retracted her statement trying to please people.

  44. Chilli FAn November 9, 2012

    TLC is loved forever. T-Boz is funnnnnnnny. I was rolling when she said scratch your ass. TLC always made you laugh. I understand what she is saying. People take what celebrities say and twist it all up. If you listening to her interview she didn’t say nothing about Brittany. She didn’t put Nikki down, she was just speaking about those shows and how the music industry is about popularity.

  45. Kassie November 9, 2012

    Why does T boz have to be grammatically correct on twitter……..some of u idiots are actiing like you’ve never spelt anything wrong before……..even nicki minaj spells alot of things wrong on twitter,but yet you guys hesitate to adress that smh…….secondly why are u nicki stans getting so defensive and upset when people make comments on nicki that you may not agree with…..we are all entitiled our opinion including celebrities…..so STFU and DEAL……

    • MUSICHEAD November 9, 2012

      At least half these ppl must be unemployed to have the time to harrass other ppl who may not care for Nicki Minaj. Between her fans and Beyonce’s I shake my head in shame lol.

  46. RihannaNehvee November 9, 2012

    Tboz is the epitome of someone who was only good for their time. It’s easy to forget, but she was always critiqued for having a really limited range which is why if you listen to her singing you’ll find that she’s actually speaking to the rhythm of the beat.

    Nicki is a much better singer than her and it’s really sad she speaks like someone who’s never step foot in a school before. Mid 40s but speaking like you’re 12.

  47. ABCD November 9, 2012

    EVERYBODY KNOWS WHAT T BOZ SAID IS TRUE!! DONT PLAY IGNORANT TO WHAT SHE IS SAYING BECAUSE YOU ARE INSECURE ABOUT UR FAVES!! TBOZ STATEMENTS WERE TRUE AND WHO DONT LIKE IT COULD GO EAT AN AIDSY D*** H***!!!!

  48. ABCD November 9, 2012

    AND TBOZ DEFINITELY CAN SING AND SHE CAN SING LIVE ALSO!! UNLIKE THE AUTOTUNED FAKE ! BLEACHED B**** NAMED NICKI MINAJ!! H*** PLEASE SIT!! 🙂

    • Anne November 10, 2012

      I disagree. T-Boz and Chilli were never real singers in my opinion. They could barely hold or carry a note. Neither one of them could have made a real contribution in a serious singing group like En Vogue, SWV or DC. All of the other female R&B groups had at least one strong vocalist but not TLC. The key to their success was well written and produced songs, the perfect image/gimmick, and a decent rapper (RIP). Actually,TLC as a group had a lot in common with Nicki in my opinion.

  49. TJ November 9, 2012

    Left Eye and Lil Kim are rappers, if one of them had been the new judge on American Idol I highly doubt she would be bothered or dissing the show. Secondly, Little Mix the girl group she just did a song with are a direct result of X Factor a.k.a one of those sows she hates so much because they don’t look for real talent. So is she saying they’re not talented and if so why did she work with them. She just came off sounding like another bitter hasbeen who is mad at anyone currently successful. She’s part of the biggest girl group of ALL TIME and doesn’t have much to show for it & is fighting to not go bankrupt AGAIN. I suggest she worry more about bringing in ratings for her upcoming reality show. Anyway, Nicki (a self proclaimed fan of TLC) probably couldn’t care less about her opinions.

      Exactly!

  50. Tay November 10, 2012

    It amazes me how brainwashed some of Nicki Minaj’s fans are. I’m 16 & I used to be a fan of Nicki until she went pop. People need to realize, what T-Boz said is 100% true. Nicki can’t sing so she shouldn’t be judging a show designed to find people with singing talents. Holding a tune is different from singing a song. Nicki holds a tune & then has her vocals digitally enhanced. Her live singing is crap. Now, the way T-Boz made her statement could have been different, but she’s not wrong. & for those who don’t believe T-Boz can sing, needs to research their TLC. I am a huge TLC fan, heard all the albums, and just because she sings deep, doesn’t mean she can’t sing. If that’s the case, Toni Braxton or Anita Baker can’t sing, & we ALL know that’s a lie. Some people just need to come to terms with the fact that their favorite artist can’t do everything they think they can.

    • Anne November 10, 2012

      The fact that she sang deep is not the problem. Like you said singers like Anita Baker and Toni Braxton have deep voices but still clearly can sing. T-Boz on the other hand just never really was a good singer. She sounded horrible live and the studio recordings really aren’t that much better when you really listen past the good music, catchy lyrics and good production. I’m just being honest, there’s a few TLC songs that I like but it’s despite the fact that T-Boz did not have much vocal talent, same with Chilli.

      • Anne November 10, 2012

        Of course I feel the same way about Nicki. Neither Nicki or T-Boz have any more business judging vocal ability than any other nonvocalist, period.

    • Tiara November 11, 2012

      Simon, Randy, LA Reid, Ellen Degeneres are all not singer but have judged American Idol & X Factor. You don’t have to be able to sing like Beyonce to hear if someone can sing or not. This is clear considering people sit online judging which artists can sing or rap when I guarantee you, 90% of those same people can’t do either. I love TLC & I love Nicki. I don’t agree with Tionne as far as her defending her comment about it not having to do with Nicki personally as opposed to it simply being about rappers judging, because if Lil Kim had been chosen to do it instead you know she would not have gone on the same rant because Kim is her friend, the same if Lisa has still been here doing it. If you’re claiming that you’re “keeping it real”, keep it all the way real and just say you have an issue with Nicki judging.

      • Anne November 11, 2012

        Point well taken. I guess you don’t necessarily need to have vocal ability in order to judge it, though I would assume that those who do have it are in an even better position to judge it assuming that they are capable of being objective. I do think that a panel should consist of a balance of singers and nonsngers at the very least.

  51. whoknows2013 November 14, 2012

    she went back on her word real quick i guess she want nicki to put her on again meaning that she doesnt have a career anymore

  52. TeamTLC November 16, 2012

    First of all, compared to TLC, Nicki wouldn’t even come close. Second, why are ya’ll making a big deal out of it anyway. Leave T-Boz alone, it’s her opinion and Nicki respects it, so what?? Nicki’s not a bad artist or none, but she should be like TLC and speak for female empowerment. Yeah, they made songs like “Creep” and “Kick Your Game” but those songs weren’t talking about shaking their a** and drinking and doing drugs. Now, as a 14 year old, I don’t listen to that new rap stuff out now. I stick with people like Heavy D, Arrested Development and stuff like that. So the people who think they should be talking bad about T-Boz need to find some sense. Oh, and T-Boz can sing!

  53. Bad Chick January 23, 2013

    OMG! Some of u people on this site posting these comments have to b some dumb ass kids well I hope its kids to wish death on a complete stranger someone who struggles with help issues just for saying some REAL s*** I like Nicki but really y is she on the show oh yeah to beef with Mariah for ratings u guys should chill on the go die s*** that’s crazy and PS she said I’m known for beating a b**** ass CHILD.
