Two weeks ago, ‘Take Care’ Rapper Drake found himself in the centre of controversy, following a nasty brawl with ‘Fortune’ star Chris Brown at New York’s W.i.P club.
Billed as the fight’s ‘fire starter’ following reports he started the altercation, Drake has kept mum on the matter despite remarks made by Brown by way of Twitter.
Now, quadruple Platinum MC Nicki Minaj has spoken openly of the drama during an interview with Tim Westwood TV.
Her remarks below…
She explained:
Oh my God. You know- Young Money till the death of me. I don’t approve of talented people doing things that aren’t conducive to an amazing career.
And so- you know- I spoke to Drake and I told him from the bottom of my heart how I felt. I’m like “Baby you are a superstar, and I need you to realize that”. He did nothing wrong of course- rumors are rumors but I told him to remember who you are.
Sometimes you just might need to go to bed- have an early nap- I do do it all the damn time.
young money are so 2010.
and who is 012 tell me which crew is f-cking with them.
Drake is the only artist int he camp who people still care about and I can see him getting old as well. Nicki whole style, persona, and gimmick is PLAYED OUT. Seriously.
@Candy,
Yes, and ppl were seriously injuried in that brawl in which he ans his crew threw bottles at CB, Tony P, 3 other males & 9 FEMALES! Even other Rappers are calling him b!+ch made. He was already considered soft asked Common, Ludacris, DMX & PushaT
Mayback Music. Now, you can have a seat, goofy b****.
G.O.O.D. Music artists are 2012. Young Money rose quickly, and will peter out quickly too.
ummmm….G.O.O.D. music ain’t f*****’ with Young Money…I’m sorry…
#TEAMMINAJ
F*** that fake ass b****. Nicki is just as fake as her b***.
HAHA true that!
She should have kept her mouth closed and stayed out of it. I don’t care if she is “Young Money til the death of her”. She has a song with Chris and now cause of this he might not even wanna work with her anymore.
RIGHT!!!
hmm I tought Nicki and Drake are not friends anymore?
Advice from Nicki Minaj? Next…
Quadruple platinum? Are you refering to that single of hers, because i know your not talking about an album…why don’t you call RIhanna a quadruple platinum popstar…im sure she has many quadruple platinum singles or close to it…your bias is showing.
Was she there?
NO!!!
I Swear this b**** needs to learn how to keep her mouth shut. Hasen’t she learned from the Lil Kim beef? Why is she commenting on somthing that doesn’t have s*** to do with her. If i was Chris Brown i would never do another song with her wack ass. If she spent less time running her mouth and being in drama, and more time RAPPING she wouldnt have a flop sophmore album.
YEEEESSSS!!!!!!
but here new album sold more the chris browns album……and he asked her the question
Sold more then F.A.M.E b**** please! dumb h** go look at the numbers GOOGLE IT! LOL! stupid.
@CBE I did, F.A.M.E 872,000
PF:RRL 900,000
WW sales
F.A.M.E. has been Platinum WW wtf are you saying? –> DenimJunkieKidd
@mob according to google its not. He has shipped over a milli WW but hasn’t sold it…..just like nicki shipped a milli in the US but only sold 500,00+….WW she’s at 900,000
Hey that 872 000k is sold in the US ALONE dummy! and platinum WW, Nicki is just 530k in the US and she didnt sell much else where apart from the UK.
@CBE you making ya self look dumb. Chris Brown did not help Nicki even promote that single. Starships did much better by herself and all of her features with DRAKE DID BETTER THAN THAT
ALSO SINCE rOMAN RELOADED just came out, compare fame to Pink friday, nickis first CD. she stumped that 800,000 plus you put up there. lol. silly kids.
Better yet, Drake stomped him both times and chris is still young and supposed to be at the peak of his career.
Chris does not give a damn about his fans and he is spiling his career by being a brat,
First off we not talking about singles and yes I did compare FAME to PFRR! making myself look dumb? you bring up pink friday and Drakes albums? B**** I will give you Exclusive LP and Chris brown LP now go check those numbers…singles? you dont want me to mention all chris’s successful singles.
Funny you say that…’cuz Chris’s single aren’t as successful as you may think. Yeah, they got played on the radio alot, but his singles’ peak positions were not as high as one may think…i mean, drake had more successful singles than CB already…based on billboard peak positions and sales.
@EJ
Have we not learned by now that THE POWERS THAT BE dictate where songs will be placed on charts these days? The BBs aren’t what they use to be when Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Anita Baker and the like were in the game. No, this is the era of media manipulation of everything from news stories (WMD in Ir aq) to celebrity attacks (Chris Brown and Drake had a brawl when Drakes ass threw a bottle and ran to the men’s room per EYE-WITNESSES).
Nicki’s CD is certified platinum with only 600k sold? How many other acts have sold the same amount but their CDs where not SHIPPED & CERTIFIED PLATINUM? …….manipulation, lies, tricks & schemes!
I agree with @TheUltimateShade Nicki should really stay out of it. This is between Chris and Drake. Plus Nicki has a song with Chris so her even getting involved in this isn’t really the best thing to do….
But if she asked about it, I mean, people wanna know. I don’t think she really putting herself into it, she just stating her opinion, just like all the other celebs…i swear yall double standard b****** really get on my f****** nerves.
Stay mad, f*****.
Chris is SUCH a loser!
For going to a nightclub to celebrate his “lil sister” Teyana Taylors signing to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music Group?That is the reason he phoned ahead and was expected that night. Drake and Meek Mill’s crackout a**es simply showed up unannounced and unwanted! Drake is a damn loser for starting that horrible mess that injuired many innocent people espcially women!
Look at Chris’s history blind bats. Every where he goes, he tries to act tough, every since he beat rihannas ass.
@Crazy Glue
History of what fool? Everywhere he goes he tries to act tough”? Everywhere WTF are you talking about dumb dumb? And what does that have to do with EVERY EYE-WITNESS, THE CLUB MANAGER AND ALL THE VICTIMS FINGERING FAKE DRAKE AS THE CULPRIT?
B**** SHUT UP WITCHO COPYING ASS!!! FLOP
She actually gives good advice, she never takes her own dvice because she is still beefin with “Lil Kim” and her fans (Sam) are still attacking her, so they should all nap together. Go see if IKEA is open “Barbz”
they ask her a question and she gave her opinion like everyone else,she have a right ,what you all mean she should keep her mouth shot you all can f-ck off i am sure no one can telll any of you on here to not leave a comment on a blog and you do so,all you b-tches who CB would never give the time of day is catching feelings,like nicki dis CB are something,no one real knows what went down in that club they ask her her opinion and she gave one just like everyone else that don’t mean it,s facts just like everyone else so yall can f-ck off u hating thirsty b-tches i am talking about men too because alot of yall are male b-tches.
@OPD2 re: June 28th, 10 am —
“..no one really knows what went down in that club..”
You’re joking, right? ..EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT WENT DOWN IN THAT CLUB..!!
Is there vast, well-orchestrated conspiracy against Drake/Meek Mill? Is everyone now lying on Drake/Meek Mill?
..NO..!!!
Meek Mill caught ‘salty feelings’ against Chris, probably because of Chris not using one of his songs on ‘Fortune’. Meek Mill got in ‘Wheelchair Jimmy’s’ ear, and for a “lame’s second”, he forgot that NYC isn’t “Jew Heaven: Upscale Forest Hill, Toronto”, and reached for that bottle which all instigated that incident.
Tell you what, if Nicki is so adamant about Drake’s “innocence”, then SHE can reach into HER newly found “fortune”, and help him settle the coming landslide of civil suits that’s absolutely sure to leave him destitute. And I’m also sure – as sure as SHE is of his innocence – she’ll gladly take to the witness stand in his upcoming criminal trial, and attest to his “good” character in the presence of “bloodied witness” faces which’ll say different!
‘Wheelchair Jimmy” is about to realize a grim and gray reality:
1.) It’s “every man for himself” – as Meek Mill is NOW on ‘Felony Probation’ and will do, and or say, ANYTHING as not to violate and be remanded back to state custody; and …
2.) Rikers Island is NOT Degrassi Street! ..It’s worlds’ away from privileged, upscale, tony, Forest Hill, Toronto!
X,Y,”and Z” — OUT..!!
DAMN, ALL OF THIS RIGHT HERE! 🙂
I am so tired of the media trying to twist this fight into a bad Chirs Brown moment when he truly did nothing wrong. Some a**hole is trying to offer money to see Chris & Fake fight in a box match. Do you believe that? That so-called BRAWL was a result of an undue attack on Chris Brown, Tony Parker (who is now forced to miss the Olympics), and countless OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE WHO WENT TO THAT CLUB TO RELAX & HAVE A GREAT TIME and nothing more!
Everyone said that Drake was responsible. As I stated below, I guess everyone is just lying on poor Drake? 0_O
I guess Chris was good enough when she was trying to get an urban hit, but now that it didn’t work for her, she didn’t even try to defend him 🙄
But her whole statement is so generic and confusing, that I don’t even know if she’s defending Drake (which would be horrible) or if she thinks the media are blowing the event out of proportion.
“quadruple Platinum MC Nicki Minaj ”
Please, f*ck this b*tch and anyone who loves her!
LOL, okay Lil Wayne 🙂
Kontrol Magazine’s Interview: W.I.P. Doorman Ruben Rivera Talks Drake, Chris Brown, and NYC Nightlife
“I don’t know why all these people are coming here tonight because there are a lot of celebrities that are confirming the last hour since we got there. All we knew that was happening was that Chris Brown was coming there. I got that e-mail. But all these other celebrities just started filing in that night and we weren’t prepared for that.”
‘Hey, these guys are celebrities. Let’s put them in the room. ‘They are A-List celebrities. Drake—nobody expected him to do something like that.”
So, I guess everyone is just lying and picking on Drake eh Nic? Ummm, paging Lil Kim!
@MOB re:June 28th, 12:36 pm —
“Wheelchair Jimmy” had always resented Chris. Meek Mill knew this and thought he could take advantage of it!
This entire..’tragic comedy’ exposes some of the players, and shows the others for who and what they are:
“Protagonist Chris”: minding HIS business: “popping bottles”, having a Good-Ol’ Time!
“Team-Antagonist” – Drake and Meek Mill: “Pork” and “Salty” – “Canadian-Bacon Jew Actor Wheelchair Jimmy”, and Meek Mill who indeed WAS “salty” because his music wasn’t good enough for Chris to use on Fortune (or some the story goes). If Chris wasn’t a ‘threat’ to Drake, he’d have just ignored/laughed-off that bottle. He’d have either drank it, or just sent it back – without incident! But he could do neither because he looked over at Breezy and couldn’t understand how he walked across that stage to get that Grammy..
You see, by now, “Wheelchair Jimmy” thought he’d have the entire game/lane/industry ALL to himself. He thought, by now, Chris would’ve been a long-forgotten memory – how absolutely wrong of him!! God, and Team-Breezy says different! “Wheelchair Jimmy” looked over at Chris, and saw ALL that love, incredible talent(s), and “Bacon Fat” started to sizzle!!
But the biggest instigator of all was Meek Mill. He used “Wheelchair Jimmy”; played him for the absolute idiot that HE is! There’s like 100s’ of “Meek Mills” out there -desperate, and deliriously full of themselves. Wayne had managed to pluck Drake from the obscurity of Degrassi Street. But, much sooner than later, come the criminal/civil trial(s), Meek Mill will undo ALL of Wayne’s hard work: Wheelchair Jimmy is about to “earn” himself a felony criminal record, and force his way into the poor house!
Thus, with the players now acknowledged, the play now finished:
“Protagonist Breezy” will merrily go about HIS way – ascending to the throne MJ’s absence left painfully vacant.
“Team-Hater” will be left behind. You see, Wayne and ‘Baby’ are – ABOVE ALL ELSE – businessmen! And when Drake inevitably becomes a liability, they’ll gracefully move on to another gimmick. You see, that’s what you do to talent-less gimmicks, you replace them as you see fit!
And now the moral of the story becomes all too obvious: Even AFTER ‘Feb 8th, 2009 Chrianna’, and Robin Roberts’ “GMA treachery”, “TALENT” is in full demand, and isn’t so easily “replaceable”. Didn’t “the industry” send three dudes to replace Breezy: Justin Bieber, Trey Songz and Drake?!
..But yet, there stood Chris Brown in THAT club, as Drake, full of envy and hate, glared over at him, with Meek Mill whispering all sorts of “amperage” in his ear..
We ALL love “happy endings”:
“Hero Breezy” gets the girl, money, accolades, and continues to climb the ladder of success.
“Team-Envy” looses all THEIR money, “earns” felony criminal records, quickly becomes irrelevant, and yet-quicker, gets replaced by another pair of gimmicks.
X,Y,”and Z”
Damn, its not that deep.
Some of you act like these people are family members. They aren’t !!
Nicki can say what she wants…
Chris brown is an known jerk.
Drake is a fake gangster.
I’m not here for meek mills
Or whatever his name is.
These ppl are paid to get your attention and keep it.
I still say it was a silly attempt to boost numbers for fortune
When I first read her comment I thought she thought Drake was involved and he told her otherwise , that whole “dont do things that arent conducive to your stardom” portion. I still think he did something because most of the “witnesses” that were supposedly there still name Drake as the instigator (but they could be lying). I guess we will see if charges ever get filed.
I don’t know if I can trust Nicki though because she lied about her own incident she had in a hotel room with “someone”from her crew (SB maybe?), TMZ has audio and everything and she still denied anything happened.
i see a bunch of 12 year olds in here typing again… the girl said nothing about chris brown really she was more so telling drake to keep his nose clean… and who would honestly care if chris did another song with nicki obviously he needs her more than she needs him… no one but urban people are checking for chris at this point, pop gave up on him when he punched rihanna.
@AJM265 re: June 28, 12:40 am —
“pop gave up on him when he punched Rihanna”
1.) Rihanna who?! Go ask Matt Kemp and Peter Berg ’bout “Fenty Toxicity”..!!
2.) F.A.M.E (F*** All My Enemies) was his first #1 POP (Top 100) album!
3.) #1-money making movie: ‘Takers’.
4.) Recent Grammy; CBreezy’s first.
5.) Record-setting BET appearance/ DWTS appearance/AMAs/ NBC Summer Series..etc..etc..
Long-story short:
Chis Brown does NOT need Nicki Minaj, nor does HE “need” “pop” (“pop”: Harvey Levin, Oprah Winfrey, Tyra Banks, ‘Robin “cancer-drip” Roberts’.. It’s like Breezy said: F*** All My Enemies!).
X,Y,”and Z”
Well, since they’re not friends, Chris shouldn’t have sent him a bottle. He can buy his own because he’s richer than Chris!
@Toofly06 re: June 28th, 1:59 pm –
“..since they’re not friends”
Says who?! Had Chris ever called out Drake? Wasn’t Chris pictured with Drake even AFTER Drake took up with Rihanna? YUP! Chris had ALREADY moved on!
Why would Chris hold any envy/animosity towards Drake? He doesn’t want Rihanna. NO ONE WANTS RIHANNA – let alone fight for/over her! Chris doesn’t want her; Matt Kemp doesn’t want her; Ashton Kutcher doesn’t want her! You don’t fight over the basketball, all you need to do is to get into the open position, and someone will gladly pass you the ball; you dribble it; you dunk it; you then pass it on to the next man..
That said..
Drake revealed himself for what he his: envious, hateful fool, who Meek Mill played like a poorly-dealt hand.
If Drake didn’t consider Chris a threat, he’d have just laughed off that bottle, or just outright ignored it! But he couldn’t because even he just can’t hide his envy of Chris’ talent(s). Drake doesn’t even write his own material – he has someone else do it for him! “Wheelchair Jimmy” is nothing more than a gimmick. He’s a gimmick who’s about to go to jail and lose what money he has to legal fees and civil law suits!
As I’d said – it’s “every man for himself”: Drake will see what he’s now put in jeopardy, and will try to put it all on Meek Mill. Meek Mill is already on felony probation, and will do and/or say whatever NOT to go back to prison.
The Manhattan DA’s Office are’t to be trifled with, especially NOW after that entire “Dominique Strauss-Kahn hotel-fake-r***” incident; they’re going to make examples of “Wheelchair Jimmy” and Meek Mill.. Meek Mill “talked” ‘Wheelchair Jimmy’ into a felony criminal record, and poverty! When the DA’s Office is done with “Wheelchair Jimmy”, we’ll all have a good cry and laugh at HIS expense.
X,Y,”and Z”
LOL what? Chris Brown was interviewed on MTV eariler that day complimenting Drake on his peaceful & easy movement in the music industry. Chris said that you don’t have to be hard in order to be a rapper you can just do you and it will be acceptable then Drake pulls some s*** like that 0_O? If they were enemies, Chris Brown surely didn’t know!
Pss…CB sent bottles to every table in VIP section – per the club owners – as he knew everyone there. It was Wheel chair Jimmy’s high off E and pumped up by Meek Mill’s ass that throw it back!
I justt want to know if they paid the white girl.
chris browns fanas are dumb
people running with rumors about Drake throwing that bottle and taking ait as fact. Everybody knows chris’s outbursts. Plus he ran to twitter to quick, looked guilty asa hell.
There was no video footage of drake throwing a bottle and he has yet to be arrested. Chris needs to be locked up for what he did to rihanna. Most regular men wouldve been and yall know it.
So EVERYONE who spoke about this incident, NOT TEAMBREEZY, but the MANY PPL WHO WITNESSED what happened are simply LYING? These aren’t ppl who particularly liked Chris Brown or Drake and have no vested interest (unlike Sicki “young money to the death of me” Garbaj). Of the two, Drake is loved by the media and Chris Brown is not. If there were going to lie about who started that fight it would have been more profitable to simply blame Chris Brown and get money from being on the various paying tabloid TV programs bashing him!
And by regular men do you mean ADULT MEN WHO ACTUALLY BEAT WOMEN LIKE: Jayz, Charlie Sheen, Sean Penn, Sean connery, Mickey Rourke, Sylvester Stallone, Nick Carter, Frank Sinartra, John Lennon, Robbie Williams, Eminem, Tommy Lee, Ozzy Osbourne, Tom Sizemore? Or do you mean author Norman Mailer, tennis greats John McEnroe & Andre Agissi, & country music stars Alan Jackson & Rodney Atkins (beat up and tried to smother his wife with a pillow in front of their young son November 2011)?
Funny how you feel a teenage boy should be locked up but not these grown ass women beating men! STFU >FOH…. Rihanna hit him and he hit her back so lock her up 1st!
It’s ironic how you fools say she shouldn’t have an opinion because she wasn’t there.. And then you continue to ramble on about what “actually” happened when none of you were there either!
