Nicki Minaj has publicly accused Jay-Z of owing her between $100 million and $200 million. In a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, the rapper called on Jay-Z to settle what she called a “karmic debt.”
“We’ve calculated about 100-200MM so far. #JayZ call me to settle this karmic debt. It’s only collecting more interest. You still in my TOP 5 tho. Let’s get it n***a,” Minaj wrote. She also jokingly warned fans who still call him “Hov” to “answer to God for the blasphemy.”
Minaj added she plans to use some of the money to help fans with college expenses through her #StudentOfTheGame charity. “I’m going to use some of the money #JayZ owes me to send some of my Barbz to college, pay their school fees & student loans,” she said.
This is not the first time Minaj has aired grievances related to Jay-Z. Earlier this month, she shared fan complaints about her contract with Jay-Z’s Tidal music streaming service.
Fans claimed Minaj was owed money and an apology over her Tidal deal. Jay-Z co-founded Tidal with artists including Minaj, J. Cole, and Rihanna but sold it in 2021 for about $300 million. Minaj has previously said she was supposed to receive a large payout but was only offered $1 million.
Minaj also appeared to take a jab at Jay-Z in a recent verse on Lil Wayne’s remix “Banned From NO,” hinting at tensions between Jay-Z and other artists.
