Nicki Minaj and Cardi B in feud?

-

Nicki Minaj feels like she’s been “ambushed” by Cardi B. The 35-year-old rap star has admitted to being “hurt” by the behaviour of her fellow New Yorker, after Cardi suggested that Nicki had re-recorded her verse on Motorsport – their collaborat­ion with Migos – in an effort to one-up her.

Nicki explained: “When I first came in the game, if a female of that stature had done a feature with me on it, I would only be singing their praises and saying, ‘Thank you.’

FELT AMBUSHED

“The first interview [Cardi] did after MotorSport came out, it just really hurt me ‘cause she looked so aggravated and angry ... I kind of felt ambushed.”

Nicki also admitted she turned to Migos star Quavo in search of support – but he shunned her.

The Anaconda hitmaker shared: “I was like, ‘Hey, can you back me up on this? ‘Cause I don’t want people to think I’m lying. What do I have to lie about?’

“And he didn’t back me up. He texted me and he was like, ‘I would go on Twitter and back you up if you were my girl.’”

Nicki also accused Cardi of failing to show her the respect she deserves.

She said: “I can only imagine how many girls wished they could’ve been on a song with Nicki Minaj. I’m not saying it in a cocky way ... I’m saying it, like, the first thing out of your mouth when somebody asks you about a Nicki Minaj feature is, ‘She changed her verse.’ Excuse me?”

Rumours of a feud between Nicki and Cardi, 25, have been circulatin­g for months.
