The Grammy’s Created A New Twitter Beef, But Does Nicki Minaj Have A Point?, News In Progress

“I have no prob being moved out the RAP category as long as we r ALL being treated FAIRLY,” Minaj tweeted late Thursday, in response to her submission being moved out of her chosen category. “If SFG (‘Super Freaky Girl’) has 2B moved out RAP then so does Big Energy!” she added.

.@NICKIMINAJ and @Latto, let’s all got along – I need y’all to come together to help me pass the Rap Act in your states!

So the Grammys put Nicki Minaj's hit song ‘Super Freaky Girl’ in the pop category. This is wrong! We all know she is not going to win the Grammy if she is in the pop section. They didn’t put her in the rap category because they want someone specific to win.

The hate on Nicki Minaj is ridiculous! How the best female rapper ever never won a Grammy? But Cardi B in 2 years won a Grammy? The agenda is real! Pushing women of a certain look. Crazy because nobody can even out rap Nicki. Once Drake come out and speak up for his queen…

Super Freaky Girl is a retake on Rick Jame’s Super Freak and Big Energy is a retake on Mariah Carey’s Fantasy. Both songs would be Pop related, but NM and Latto are both rappers. Do we even care about genres anymore in today’s listening culture? Rap is still a baby in the music industry, only being included in around the 1970s as a subgenre to popular music.

You really put this 2 songs on the samy category pic.twitter.com/LTYBF6HIJp

The Grammys is based on artistry. Billboard is based on numbers. The AMAs is based on sales and commerical space keeping. Lol chilee at least yall made it #femalerappers still winning.
