Yesterday, Twitter user ‘Olly Reeves’ took to the social media platform to share:

Then, to the surprise of Minaj’s fan base, Martel responded to Reeves with:

@DIANEMARTELOFF
@OllyReeves it’s not my edit – it sucks

Deleting the tweet shortly after publishing it, Martel’s honest take on her work comes after the clip was launched to support Nicki‘s third studio album, ‘The Pink Print’, due out this year.
