Well, it's about damn time!
Nicki Minaj has FINALLY responded to both of Remy Ma's diss tracks with three singles hitting music sharing sites No Frauds, Changed It and Regret in Your Tears all dropped on the interwebs Thursday evening. No Frauds includes her YMCMB brothers Lil Wayne and Drake and Changed It features just Wayne.. Basically, Nicki waited to actually MAKE money on the diss records...according to her post on Instagram.
She challenges Remy to respond in 72 hours and offering to pay her a half-a-million dollars if she can get an interview and NOT mention Minaj.
Team Remy and Team Nicki have been at odds for almost two weeks after Remy dropped ShEther. Fans were waiting for Nicki's response and assumed she just couldn't fight back lyrically. Meanwhile we saw her take her lyrical fingers to social media starting a beef with Trey Songz and posting pictures of her famous friends. We basically had to wait for her to return from Paris Fashion Week to finally respond and here we are.
In No Frauds, Minaj raps, “You can’t be Pablo if your work ain’t sellin’ / What the f— is this bitch inhalin’? / Tried to drop ‘Another One,’ you was itchin’ to scrap / You exposed your ghostwriter / Now you wish it was scrapped." Minaj also touches on Remy's personal life, especially when she went to prison.
On the Eve of Nicki's responses, Remy did an interview expressing how she wish she would've done things differently when it came to she and Nicki:
After explaining that it was the behind-the-scenes career interference that ultimately pushed her to release “Shether,” she noted that she wishes things could’ve gone differently between her and Minaj. “I actually liked her but don’t try and come for me,” she said. “It just bothers me that me picking apart another female is what went viral. We could’ve done this working together.” When Nigatu asked why that didn’t happen, Remy responded, “It wasn’t me, I just think it would’ve been cooler if we came together and did something crazy and that’s what everyone was talking about. I don’t regret it, I’m just not particularly proud of it.”
Some critics say Remy's rethinking the diss tracks because rumors were swirling that Nicki asked Nas to prevent Remy from performing the song because of his rights to the song's beat which comes from his own diss track, Ether. However, TMZ has found that Nas didn't have an issue with it, Universal did. Basically, they didn't like that Remy took Nas' beat and made money off of it without their permission. So, the song has been taken off of Soundcloud and the radio.
So, Remy had to take a BIGGER L.
So what's your opinion on the beef?
Could these two kiss and make up and come up with a fire record?
With Remy's diss track hitting the web over the weekend, some people didn't realize who she was.
They thought her career would be over after Nicki clapped back on social media...what people don't realize is that Remy's been in the game for a while.
Peep this video to get acquainted.
It was only a matter of time before Remy Ma was to finally go in on Nicki Minaj. Since her release from being in prison, everyone was curious as to how Remy and Kim would get along.
At first things seemed cool, Remy even congratulated Nicki on winning BET' Female Rapper of the Year", then on Phresher's Wait a Minute (Remix) Remy raised eyebrows by her line: Will I smoke this bitch? /
Yes” and “That ghostwriter ’bout to call her / That lifeline getting
shorter / R.I.P. Biggie Smalls, why the f*ck they ain’t want her
We were all wondering if this was about Nicki or not...
Fast forward to February 24th, Gucci Mane released Make Love featuring Nicki, and it’s pretty evident she’s talking about Remy with the line Oooohhh, oh you the qu-e-e-the queen of this here? One
platinum plaque, album flopped, bitch, where? (bitch, where?)”
Then that's when Remy released her beast titled ShEther famously paying homage to Nas' diss track Ether fired at JayZ way back when they had beef. Ether is the epitome of rap diss tracks.
ShEther bodies Nicki and is what rap fans have been waiting to hear!
This diss track is 6 minutes of pure fire. Keep in mind this is the SECOND female rap legend to go after Nicki with a diss. Remember Lil' Kim's Black Friday back in 2010?
There's no hook, no celebrity features....just FULL hip-hop! She beings the track with an old recording of Nicki yelling Free Remy!
Remy fires the ultimate shots by mentioning her relationship with her YMCMB family, her exes Meek Mill and Safaree, her butt and her wardrobe choices.
The diss includes lines like
“Are
you dumb? You a pink diamond chicken wing chain. You had a leather
beehive on your head. Are you forgettin’ that I pressed you before,
bitch?” Then, the verbal hay-makers commence. “I saw Meek at All-Star; he
told me your ass drop/He couldn’t fuck you for three months because your
ass dropped/NowI don’t think you understand how bad her ass got/The
implants that you had put in her ass popped,” she raps. Read More: Remy Ma Disses Nicki Minaj on “Shether” - XXL | http://www.xxlmag.com/news/2017/02/remy-ma-shether/?trackback=tsmclip

You was screaming ‘Free Remy’ when I was upstate doomed /But now that
they freed Remy, you don’t sing the same tune,” and, “How are you on the
VMAs acting like you hood? / Way across the stage, talking ‘bout
‘Miley, what’s good?’ / That’s Hannah Montana, she was always happy /
You only fronted on Mariah ‘cause Mariah don’t carry / Tried to
disrespect Taylor ‘cause Taylor wasn’t Swift enough.
In response to this track, Nicki took to social media posting a screenshot of an article stating how Remy's album with Fat Joe Platos o Plomo hasn't done well on the charts (which she has since taken down).
Then Nicki posted the ULTIMATE response by posting a free-style song of BEYONCE calling Nicki the Rap Queen.

Then in a turn of events, somehow Trey Songz was involved.
IDK about that one, but regardless I'm hoping Nicki takes this beef off of social media and to the studio.
All rap fans who've been fans of Nicki prior to Pink Friday have been waiting for the old Nicki to come back and by actually rapping. No gimmicks.
