The rapper also defended herself as the cemetery where Megan’s mom is buried ramps up security due to potentially unhinged Barbz

On the fifth day of Nicki Minaj’s intense fixation on Megan Thee Stallion following a jab the “Savage” rapper likely threw Minaj’s way on her latest track, Minaj invoked Rihanna to claim that Megan tried to force sympathy for herself as a victim of violence.

She also refuted that she has encouraged her fans to approach or desecrate the gravesite of Megan’s late mother.

The Texas cemetery where she’s buried has reportedly enhanced security and informed local police of the risk it faces as Nicki Minaj fans may have encouraged each other to disrespect it.

On Jan. 31, Minaj joined podcast host Joe Budden on Spaces, the live audio arm of X, formerly known as Twitter. Budden, who has had a rap career and often critiques hip-hop on his show, called himself an “objective Barb,”

implying that he is a fan of Minaj and somehow is not biased as a music critic (a job that is inherently subjective). This meant that it was a relatively safe space for Minaj to speak without contest.

In a conversation of at least 40 minutes, Minaj speculated that Megan’s management company, Roc Nation, has launched a smear campaign against her,

dissected the diss track Megan’s estranged ex Pardison Fontaine released in November, and accused Megan of seeking sympathy and controversy to bolster her career.
