Did You Miss It? Nicki Minaj Denies Dissing Cardi B On New Song ‘No Flag’

Published: Saturday 26th Aug 2017 by Rashad

From ‘No Frauds’ to ‘No Flag’ (and a bevy of bops before and between), rapstress Nicki Minaj has handed out her fair share of not-so-subliminal shade this year.  While some of the lyrical darts were clearly aimed at a specific target, others left listeners guessing who the intended recipient was.

Insert Cardi B.

The rising rapstress has been feeling nothing but love from music lovers who’ve helped hoist her single, ‘Bodak Yellow,’ to some impressive chart heights.  Lifting the bass-heavy bop to #3  on the Hot 100 this week, ‘Yellow’ shines as the highest charting feature-less female rap single since Minaj’s own 2014 hit, ‘Anaconda.’

Yet, while the ladies have been nothing but supportive of each other publicly, some sources indicate the Young Money maven is not exactly a fan of her younger rap sister – a point underlined when a full listen of the self-proclaimed Queen of Rap’s feature on London On Da Track‘s burgeoning hit, ‘No Flag,’ saw her spit a diss many thought was aimed at Cardi…


Lyrics:  “Lil’ bitch I heard these labels tryna make another me/Everything you getting little hoe is cause of me/I heard I’m stopping bags, word to Shaggy it wasn’t me/These bitches is my sons, but they daddy ain’t bust in me…

I ain’t fucking with you sis, we ain’t with the incest/Yes, I am the Queen, I’m still trying to find the princess/They know my name ring bells so they still press/Say the Queen name you can get some ill press…”

*****

Coincidentally Cardi has been quite vocal of her admiration for Minaj, mentioning her name in a number of interviews since her single, ‘Bodak Yellow,’ began taking off.  The coincidence led many-a-Twitter detective to Nicki to quiz the rapstress on why she would fire shots at the up-and-comer.

Her response?

    Knowing the history of Nicki, she always throw shots then plays victim just to win over the media and her dummy fans. The instant somebody retaliates… THEY’RE THE HATER. So sick of this evil woman, she’s so conniving.

      fck you.

  2. Achooo! August 26, 2017

    I don’t like Dominicans but I will make an exception for Cardi B. She has surpass expectations as the standard has been set very low. I am happy for Cardi B but fix a flat Nicki better be careful as she has more enemies than friends. The lights are getting dim and it’s time to hand that crown to the next real talent or youngin. Bow out gracefully. You won’t be missed!

    • realestinthebando August 26, 2017

      Why don’t you like Dominicans?

      • Meme August 26, 2017

        Cuz Dominicans have problems with blacks. Essentially in New York. Self hate. AND don’t confused one as black. CHile

      • Facts August 26, 2017

        I love Dominican’s. I’ve never had a problem with them. Btw, my boyfriend is Dominican, and his family and friends love me.

    • audreyherbsburn August 26, 2017

      Meme, you can’t confuse a black person for a black person lol

      • …I HATE WHITE B******. …and. BLACK B******. …both not s***… August 26, 2017

        Black Americans will say who they are..

        Duminicans are just afraid of whites and jealous blacks who paved the wAY. .whites will keep locking u up and railroading both.

    Why would she diss Cardi B when Cardi’s boyfriend is on the song? Social media is so bored. I almost want Nicki to come at Cardi extra hard so everybody could shut the hell up.

    • Ciah’s Turtle August 28, 2017

      This is the point I was getting ready to make, but I’m glad somebody on the site was intelligent enough to bring it up.

    • Shalaba malakama October 27, 2018

      To make it look like she’s not. Dum dum. Another brainwashed barb

  4. audreyherbsburn August 26, 2017

    nicki’s as fake as her ass. sis is lying.

  5. Truth be told August 26, 2017

    Diss or not (I don’t think it is)… It says more about what people think of Cardi than anything else. When Nicki said “I heard these labels tryna make another me” and y’all dummies instantly thought of Cardi lol. So is cardi acting/rapping like Nicki? Does Cardi flow or mannerisms remind u of Nicki? Does her look remind u of Nicki? If it doesn’t then it’s not a shot a cardi and if it does then y’all dummies need to go to cardi and tell her to stop acting like that since y’all claim u don’t need another Nicki lol. Cardi already stated that she looked up to nicki and that she also liked pop music… So expect cardi to do some pop just like queen Minaj.

    • realestinthebando August 26, 2017

      LOL the gag is Nicki is another Lil Kim. You’re lucky you saved that little paragraph when you mentioned her doing pop ’cause that’s the ONLY legacy she’ll leave behind for future female rappers to emulate. Outfits, style, her little “AWW!” grunts on tracks is ALL KIM. Respect the architect, boo! Nicki out 8 whole years and not one female rapper sound like ha corny ass from cupcakKe, DeJ Loaf, Nitty Scott, Snow Tha Product, Maliibuu Miitch; they all take influence from real femcees like Lauryn Hill, Eve, Foxy, Queen Latifah like they should. Those were the best and most influential times of female hip hop. Nicki’s little “era” just can’t relate, sorry. She can p** out at the buffet non-stop yet still won’t be legendary.

      • Truth be told August 27, 2017

        Y’all love to use lil Kim as a dig at Nicki lol. Nicki did say Kim was an icon, along with Missy, Hill and Queen latifah. Lil Kim was a very successful rapper I won’t deny that. But Nicki been in the game a long ass time and don’t say she only wins because she was the only girl out… Diamond, Trina, Banks, etc were all trying to put out music when Nicki was on the come up but y’all didn’t buy their music. Y’all let Nicki reign for years++ because y’all failed to support other women. Kim put out two mixtapes but what happened… Nicki taught them girls what it takes to be successful and as I see it cardi is the only one that studied her notes and is trying to execute them. Y’all pit everyone against Nicki and they FAIL. Then y’all wonder why she still reigns supreme. Stop doing it because it doesn’t work and ur only hurting other females by doing it.

      • Ebony August 27, 2017

        Amen to that. ????????

    • realestinthebando August 27, 2017

      You’re soooo dumb! First off , Nicki “taught” others who to be a sell out…that’s it. This is evident by her failing to uphold real rap standards from Pink Friday to present. Sure, she can spit but none of ha s*** RAP WISE, are classics. None! SHEther destroyed what’s left of Nicki’s rap credibility. She has shown time and time again she’s an industry chick who pulls stunts that are not of hip hop’s nature, for example, her featuring Drake and Wayne on No Frauds. Real Queens of Rap stand on their own and don’t need corporate reinforcement! The reason black folk never support those rap chicks you mentioned is because female rap was dead at the time. Hence why Nicki’s attempts at being conscious never get taken seriously (E,g, Lookin Ass N****, Pills and Potions), they only appreciate her when she’s showing ass or wearing a pink wig singing about Star Ships. No, we’re not gonna praise a sell out who misuses hip hop with white coin. All it takes is a REAL RAP chick who is successful to decimate Nicki’s so called legacy since she don’t have one classic rap album that raised the bar. Cardi having a top 5 hit, a ALL TRAP SOLO RAP record is a huge threat ’cause Now Nicki gon change her whole M,O. Thats a kii – Out 8 whole years and still tryna prove yourself LOL

      • Truth be told August 27, 2017

        Nicki changed her MO… How? By liking Cardi? But she took Young MA and dej on tour with her. She’s been in the studio with Trina. Oh I get it…. It’s not the females U want her to like or accept that’s why y’all say she doesn’t like competition. I mean if going off and doing pop and getting a bigger fanbase is being a sell out then I’m glad she did cuz ur faves haven’t gotten the clue that sometimes u gotta appeal to the masses and not remain local. Do some catchy pop songs , stack some coins, come back and still be queen. Like I said will y’all be mad when cardi jumps on pop records?

        “I dumb down for my audience
        And double my dollars
        They criticize me for it
        Yet they all yell “Holla”
        If skills sold
        Truth be told
        I’d probably be
        Lyrically
        Talib Kweli
        Truthfully
        I wanna rhyme like Common Sense
        (But I did five Mil)
        I ain’t been rhyming like Common since
        When your sense got that much in common
        And you been hosteling since
        Your inception
        F*** perception
        Go with what makes sense
        Since
        I know what I’m up against
        We as rappers must decide what’s most important
        And I can’t help the poor if I’m one of them
        So I got rich and gave back
        To me that’s the win, win” -jay z

        U don’t get it babe. Go off and do pop and show her family/friends/fanbase that’s it’s more to life than what’s outside ur window or stay local and be considered a “skilled rapper” (by your standards) just to get a high five and a handshake from a person that didn’t buy her album anyway? Y’all mindsets are so cloudy that u only see what’s 2 feet ahead of u. She opened the door for these new girls. Now go out and support them cuz for 8++ years y’all haven’t and just decided that it was Nicki’s fault that they were not achieving success that matched hers. How on Earth can Nicki stop YOU from buying another person’s song??? HOW? Y’all just using that excuse because when a song has “ft. Nicki Minaj” after it instantly gets more looks. Y’all mad that people want her on their song. U don’t like her then why click on her article. Oh because it makes sense to click on the article to get ur weekly Nicki Minaj hate out ur system instead of buying dej loafs new single or watching Snow the Product on Queen of the South? People can’t be successful without support and the Barbs do just that now u go out and do it for these new girls.

    Who is spreading fake lies? Dominican LOVE blacks! I only like my men chocolate black. You guys need to stop with ya’ll fake rumors

  7. ann August 26, 2017

    I must say even the most crap s*** songs can go pop Bodak is that track..sorry! But cardi is a funny gah tho with her lip poppin self !

  8. M August 26, 2017

    The real story here should be how bad the actual song is. Nicki needs to just stop jumping on any and everyone’s tracks these days because it’s starting to get played out at this point. And the fact that really none of these songs with her as a feature have really blown up is an indication that the public is pretty over it too. She’s ultimately shooting herself in the foot because people are already getting over her before she’s even released her own material in support of her upcoming album.

  9. Abel Minaj August 26, 2017

    I really wish she would call people out by name, I love her but she’s irritated me beyond belief this era.

    • realestinthebando August 26, 2017

      Nicki is the sneak diss queen. That’s how she plays the game. Very corporate and Becky’ish. I hate calculated people that do the most dirt for relevance. Like just be real and n!ggas will respect you.

  10. Caleb August 26, 2017

    “I heard I’m stopping bags, word to Shaggy it wasn’t me.” THATs obviously about Remy.

  11. Niko Ramos August 26, 2017

    “I heard I’m stopping bags, word to shaggy it wasnt me” first thing that comes to my mind is when Remy was on Wendy Williams and said Nicki was trying to “Stop her bag.” But the rest sound slike it is aimed at Cardi. Nicki just being a fool like always lately. So boring. At this point, she needs to release some kind of magic music to make up for all these half as* features and jabs shes been taking that no one cares about. She is still sheethered…

  12. GK August 27, 2017

    Cardi B**** has no talent, just a lot of sheeps to buy her visual/money s***.

  13. Tim Brown August 27, 2017

    Tired of that “sons” line from NM

  14. Ciah’s Turtle August 28, 2017

    Offset wouldn’t leave his verse on this song knowing Nicki’s verse is about Cardi. Lets be TF serious. -_-
