Nicki Vs Remy
What’s the issue between two good female Rappers Nicki Minaj
and Remy Ma is it because of some type of jealousness or is this beef personal
beef? Hmmm….. You might heard that from the past few weeks Nicki Minaj was throwing
shots towards anybody that feel like they can take the crown of queen of rap. Remy
Ma drop a dis tape of Nicki Minaj talking about her life and how her body fake
and how she will never be the queen of rap etc. Just slandering her name.
Less than a week on Feb. 25 there was a release of Remy Ma’s “ShETHER,” a venomous track that digs into Minaj from literally every angle for almost seven minutes, came as a shocking to many, others saw this exact moment boiling up over the course of the past decade and then some. As the Bronx rapper spits each disrespectful bar over the same Ron Browz-produced “Ether” beat Nas used to annihilate Jay Z in 2001, the gravity of the arguably inevitable battle escalates to new heights, placing a newfound pressure for Minaj to fire back. When looking back on the unruly frenemy-style relationship between The Pink-Print rapper and the Plata O Plomo MC, it’s as clear as day that neither of the two have been willing to loosen their grasp on the crown nor let their vision stray far from the throne of being the best or queen of rap.
Both have had their sights set on the title of Queen of Rap and tactfully make moves to secure their own respective kingdoms. This beef also brings us back to one of hip-hop’s oldest turf wars, the Bronx versus Queens. As we know at the time in which Remy was incarcerated in 2008, Nicki Minaj was first gaining momentum through hustling mixtapes and albums. When the Terror Squad MC was released from prison in 2014, she found herself stepping into a time where Minaj was already established as a household name. At the time, Minaj was enjoying the fruits of her labor following the release of her third studio album and began diving into the acting world.
As Remy picked up where she left off, continuing to carve her own lane and work her way up to scoring a recent nominee, alongside Fat Joe, at the 2017 Grammy Awards, the looming beef between her and Minaj hasn’t soon disappeared. Although, at the time of this report, Minaj has not yet indulged in the temptation to tear into Remy Ma on wax and remains unbothered, their history reminds us that this is, after all, a game of chess, not checkers.
