Speaker 1: I'm a homegirl that knows a little bit about everything
Speaker 1: and everybody.
Speaker 2: You don't know if you don't lie about that, right,
Speaker 2: Lauren came in.
Speaker 1: Hey guys, it's Laura la Rosa and this is the
Speaker 1: latest with Laura l Rosa. This is your daily dig
Speaker 1: on all things pop culture, entertainment, news, and the conversations
Speaker 1: that shake the room.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I got a bunch of a bunch of stuff for
Speaker 1: you guys today. I am excited to get to because
Speaker 1: it's some of my favorite things. We're gonna get into
Speaker 1: the Real Housewives of Atlanta drop a bomb. Not so
Speaker 1: favorite thing, but two of my you know, artists that
Speaker 1: I actually love to listen to, Nicki Minaj and Sizza.
Speaker 1: We're definitely gonna get into that as well, because, let
Speaker 1: me tell y'all, we talk about conversations that shake the room. Baby.
Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj has been trying to have a conversation for
Speaker 1: about a month or so now just about the wrongs
Speaker 1: that she alleged are being done to her in this industry.
Speaker 1: This is not a conversation that we are unfamiliar with.
Speaker 1: When it comes to Nicki Minaj. She is always very
Speaker 1: you know, vocal and quick to let us know what
Speaker 1: is happening.
Speaker 2: According to her, allegedly, even.
Speaker 1: If we don't know what's happening, right, so let's talk
Speaker 1: a bit about that. So there was a long, long
Speaker 1: feud yesterday on X and when I say feud, that
Speaker 1: normally means two people going back and forth.
Speaker 2: The feud didn't last.
Speaker 1: Long because Sissa got in and got out. Nicki Minaj
Speaker 1: continued through the end of the night. She ended her
Speaker 1: night on Station Head going in on Sissa because Nicki
Speaker 1: Minaj felt like TD Sissy's manager Punch of Tde who
Speaker 1: was president over at TD. TD is the label out
Speaker 1: of the West Coast that has or had Kendrick Lamar,
Speaker 1: and you know they got Sizza and you know they
Speaker 1: are the West Coast at this at this point in time.
Speaker 2: They have been for some time.
Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj felt as though he was trying to be funny.
Speaker 1: He tweeted Broken Barbies, which is a song by an
Speaker 1: artist named I Am Luck that they are currently working with,
Speaker 1: and then tweeted the video to the song. But Nicki
Speaker 1: Mina took it as how coincidental that you were here
Speaker 1: tweeting that and I'm here on Twitter talking about all
Speaker 1: the things that I'm talking about and have been for
Speaker 1: the last like two weeks. So she started coming for him,
Speaker 1: alleging that, you know, because of her not wanting to
Speaker 1: work with him, that had been retaliation on his part,
Speaker 1: and also alleging, you know that this is what this
Speaker 1: is what happens when women get out in the field,
Speaker 1: You're going to get bloody, no pun intended. When women
Speaker 1: get out in the field, there's always issues, especially when
Speaker 1: it comes to the men in the industry. Now, Sizza,
Speaker 1: my baby girl, homegirl called astray. If I'm being honest,
Speaker 1: Sizza got back on X right sitting in in you know,
Speaker 1: let me go double check the sounline because some fans
Speaker 1: pointed out, like, oh, it's very convenient the time that
Speaker 1: Sissa decided to get back on X and have the
Speaker 1: and tweet this. So Sizza her last tweet was June
Speaker 1: twenty ninth, twenty twenty five, right, and then yesterday and
Speaker 1: we are almost a month out, we are July sixteenth,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Sissy gets on X and she tweets
Speaker 1: mercury retrograde. Don't take that bait. Leaf out loud, silly goose. Now,
Speaker 1: we talked about this on the Breakfast Club a bit,
Speaker 1: but just wanted to give you guys a little bit
Speaker 1: more context here because we have the time, and I
Speaker 1: really want to know, you know, here is not more
Speaker 1: per se me telling you what happening, though I'm giving
Speaker 1: you some background. I want to have the conversation here
Speaker 1: of the way that Nicki Minaj is viewed at this point.
Speaker 1: Is it's helpful or is this hurtful? Does it get
Speaker 1: her to her end goal or does it just make
Speaker 1: people turn off the noise?
Speaker 2: Literally?
Speaker 1: So Sissy tweeted that and then Nicki Minaj begin to
Speaker 1: go off talking about Siss bbl, talking about you know,
Speaker 1: Sisa not being able to sing all of these things.
Speaker 1: Let's take a listen.
Speaker 3: Listen, Misa, okay, find you somebody to mother fucking play
Speaker 3: with Mezza Ley Mizsa rob I said, find you some
Speaker 3: of the el's boxed to play with.
Speaker 2: Bitch.
Speaker 3: You already played with your own home and we've seen
Speaker 3: how that went. And you know, I don't the you know,
Speaker 3: surgery shame or bout it shame. You know, I don't
Speaker 3: even do that. But I don't know if you've hat
Speaker 3: Obe's chubby, oh skinny, uh gotta.
Speaker 1: Get now once since went down, like since I did
Speaker 1: spar a bit. She responded back to a fan and
Speaker 1: she said, you know, I get bullied by millions online
Speaker 1: every day. Then I stepped my ass out on a
Speaker 1: packed stadium tour. She's currently on the GNX tour with
Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar, which we know because I've talked about it here.
Speaker 2: Is doing very well.
Speaker 1: Right now where people show me real and she capitalized
Speaker 1: real love and she capitalized in real life. My parents
Speaker 1: are healthy and I'm the most successful I have ever
Speaker 1: been capitalized. Get some FM perspective and bark at the wall.
Speaker 1: That's what she responded to this fan in Nicki min I.
Speaker 1: This is a fan who was responding to her in
Speaker 1: response to Nicki Minaje. The fan had said, you really
Speaker 1: don't want to start this girl. If you was crying before,
Speaker 1: you're gonna really be crying now. The barber's gonna get
Speaker 1: at you.
Speaker 2: Baby.
Speaker 1: Them Barb's ain't then to play with. But Sissy, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, She's speaking for her own self.
Speaker 1: So then another barb tweeted Sissy and said, girl, you
Speaker 1: want a joint tour do that solo? I want to
Speaker 1: see some and Sissa responded and said, what the f
Speaker 1: you want to see? Let me know, and she posted
Speaker 1: tour numbers. So she posted tour numbers from her SOS
Speaker 1: tour and what she posted was from an outlet called
Speaker 1: the pop Tings and it says Sissy's Soos tour has
Speaker 1: grossed one hundred million dollars. Sissa joins Tina Turner, Beyonce,
Speaker 1: and Rihanna as the only black woman to achieve the
Speaker 1: milestone with a tour. She said, listen, I'm leting you
Speaker 1: know something right here. Don't play with me. Then she tweeted,
Speaker 1: laughed my ass off. Let me go back to being calm,
Speaker 1: shy and meek baby. That people took this and ran
Speaker 1: with it because she said the word meek and meek
Speaker 1: is like I want to go back to being her like,
Speaker 1: you know, nimble out of the way. But they of
Speaker 1: course thought that she was referencing Meek Mill because mcmill
Speaker 1: you said, date NICKI minaj.
Speaker 2: Lordie.
Speaker 1: She says, y'all have a blessed night, see you tomorrow
Speaker 1: night for Paris Night number two. Then Sissy started tweeting
Speaker 1: some of her numbers just from her, like you know
Speaker 1: so Os, you know plaques and uh just recognition tweets
Speaker 1: that were coming her way. She started responding to some
Speaker 1: of those, and Nicki Minaj went off again talking about
Speaker 1: why Sissa is not an icon. Basically told says, listen,
Speaker 1: you can come in the room, but you can't sit
Speaker 1: with me.
Speaker 2: Let's take a listen, mister, You're not an icon.
Speaker 3: You are a yodling fools who needs auto tune?
Speaker 2: Who done this? Every female entertainer?
Speaker 3: It seems based off of you know, the screenshots, the
Speaker 3: yodling somewhere else. What the and you don't try to
Speaker 3: try to break that man back on something. I think allegedly,
Speaker 3: how the did you match the dots every time you
Speaker 3: put back on the fregles?
Speaker 2: Is what we get?
Speaker 3: The people want to mother No.
Speaker 1: I love both the girls. I am a big sister fan.
Speaker 1: I am a huge fan of Nicki Minaj's pen. I
Speaker 1: do not agree with how Nicki Minaj goes about things
Speaker 1: majority of the time, like ninety percent of the time,
Speaker 1: but I am a fan of Nicki Minaj's music. I
Speaker 1: don't think that there's anybody that can argue musically that
Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj is a miss because she's not. But I
Speaker 1: think where Nicki Minaj misses and this is me bringing
Speaker 1: in my opinion here.
Speaker 2: It's like, I don't even think let me back that up.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't even call it a miss.
Speaker 1: I think where people disconnect from Nicki Minaj is in
Speaker 1: moments like this.
Speaker 2: Because I don't fully know what happened, right.
Speaker 1: I also mentioned on the Breakfast Club this morning that
Speaker 1: I spoke to the president of tde Punch, who is
Speaker 1: the manager of Sizzl, who says, look, she reached out back,
Speaker 1: you know a few years ago for a future a feature.
Speaker 1: She wanted Scissity to get on a feature for her
Speaker 1: upcoming project. I told her I would get it to her.
Speaker 1: It ended there. There was no beef, there was no
Speaker 1: nothing after that. I don't know what Nicki Minaj just
Speaker 1: sid it is. She says that she has a side
Speaker 1: and that she got the receipts of it. I don't
Speaker 1: know where her side is, but I will say that
Speaker 1: without having full context from both sides, and even with
Speaker 1: full context from both sides, because Siss's side is saying, Yo,
Speaker 1: this is random. We weren't even talking about you. Nobody
Speaker 1: was worried about you. What are you talking about? Nicki
Speaker 1: Minaj is like, oh, y'all. I think that's just a
Speaker 1: coincidence that Broken Barbius is being tweeted. Mind y'all, this
Speaker 1: is not a This is not an artist that Punch
Speaker 1: hasn't already been talking about. And you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so he's like, look, I have no idea.
Speaker 1: I was lost because I kept saying, I'm like, yo,
Speaker 1: the world is lost. Can you please provide some color,
Speaker 1: some context here. He's like, that's all I got for you.
Speaker 1: I'm lost as well too. People disconnect Nicki Minaj because
Speaker 1: this always comes off, as you know, there's this narrative
Speaker 1: around nickumanage that she just cannot get along with the
Speaker 1: other rap girls, the other girls in her industry, right, And.
Speaker 2: I think people like to lean into that.
Speaker 1: And I think when you have a situation like this
Speaker 1: where Nicki Minaj is alleging one thing, the other side
Speaker 1: is alleging another thing. Until we see everything laid out
Speaker 1: on the table, it's hard to make an opinion or
Speaker 1: a narrative, but people run to do it. The people
Speaker 1: who feel like Nicki Minaj just be doing too much
Speaker 1: are quick to run and be like, yo, you have
Speaker 1: a problem with everybody. Relax, like you're always doing too much.
Speaker 1: That girl was not tweeting about you. The people who
Speaker 1: back Nicki Minaj say, uh, she hadn't tweeted since like June.
Speaker 2: Something that's not a coincidence.
Speaker 1: Let's not play crazy here because the broken Barbie's tweet
Speaker 1: had went up from her manager and then here she
Speaker 1: comes talking about retrograde and not to take the bait
Speaker 1: because Nicki Minaj is now talking about punch on her
Speaker 1: timeline after his Broken Barbie's tweet.
Speaker 2: For me, I just really.
Speaker 1: I try and think about, you know, being a woman
Speaker 1: in a situation where you feel like you're not being hurt,
Speaker 1: and what that looks like on a surface level. On
Speaker 1: a surface level, it can be, it can look nasty,
Speaker 1: it can give all the things that the people be saying, Yo,
Speaker 1: Nikki crazy, she do too much. She embarrassing herself, Especially
Speaker 1: because if I'm being honest with you, I felt like
Speaker 1: in the Nicki Minaj Cardi b situation, and I've said
Speaker 1: this publicly before, I felt like Nicki minajen embarrassed herself.
Speaker 1: I felt like Nicki Minaj the icon that she is
Speaker 1: and rightfully self for her to claim that was upset
Speaker 1: that someone didn't want to bow and kiss the ring
Speaker 1: when she's publicly talked about being put in that position
Speaker 1: herself and how it didn't make her feel good. But
Speaker 1: I also try to look at it like, if that
Speaker 1: was done to you, you're more likely to repeat it
Speaker 1: to somebody else. That situation isn't the same here with Sizza,
Speaker 1: because her issue right now on the timeline is that
Speaker 1: she thinks Hiss of being funny with these indirect tweets,
Speaker 1: But it always leans back into that narrative of Nicki
Speaker 1: Minaj is problematic, and I don't necessarily like to throw
Speaker 1: that on anybody, especially not a woman, because I understand
Speaker 1: like Nicki Minaj tried to get to this deeper conversation
Speaker 1: of it. You know, she talked about when you're a woman,
Speaker 1: you get out in the field, these things happen. When
Speaker 1: you speak up for yourself, these things happen.
Speaker 2: But it's just hard.
Speaker 1: It's hard to not at least hear narrative that is
Speaker 1: out there because this continues to happen over and over
Speaker 1: and over and over again. There has been instances like
Speaker 1: I mentioned with the Cardi b situation, where you know,
Speaker 1: with me reporting on the story and knowing some of
Speaker 1: the inner workings and just honestly, even if not, even
Speaker 1: if I didn't, just watching as a fan, not reaching out,
Speaker 1: not getting digging deeper and not doing any of that,
Speaker 1: just watching as a person who is a fan of
Speaker 1: the music. At that time, when Nicki Minaj and Cardi
Speaker 1: had their feud, it very much gave Nikki, do you
Speaker 1: not know who you are? Why is there an issue here?
Speaker 1: There's no issue? So why is there an issue? Is
Speaker 1: what it gave? Right, So that always comes back around.
Speaker 1: I want to know what y'all think though, Like, honestly,
Speaker 1: if you remove because I think people are so divisive
Speaker 1: and like you know, when it comes to Nicki Minaja,
Speaker 1: you're either a barb so you're hard on one side
Speaker 1: of like everything Niki does is right, or you're completely
Speaker 1: against her, where you're like, yo, this lady is crazy.
Speaker 1: Why is she always doing this stuff? She's always a
Speaker 1: common denominator. I want you all to meet me in
Speaker 1: the middle right now, and let's have a conversation about.
Speaker 2: If we removed all of the things, all.
Speaker 1: Of the past beef, all of the whatever, is there
Speaker 1: a conversation to be had with Nicki Minaj about And
Speaker 1: I'm not alleging that any of the wrongs that she
Speaker 1: is saying happened to her, like retaliation or any of
Speaker 1: those things happened.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that happened.
Speaker 1: I know what I was told from the person she's
Speaker 1: alleging did it, and he said that never happened.
Speaker 2: And I know what Nicki Minaj is a leging happened.
Speaker 1: She's saying she was retaliated against because she didn't want
Speaker 1: to work with the TDE team.
Speaker 2: I don't know what is true or not true.
Speaker 1: I only can go by what people are saying for themselves,
Speaker 1: right and present both sides of that, which I just did.
Speaker 1: But when it comes to women trying to have the
Speaker 1: conversation about feeling as if every time they get out
Speaker 1: there for themselves, they're back and back into a corner,
Speaker 1: what can Nicki Minaj do to better have this conversation,
Speaker 1: because that's a common denominator honestly, Like, yeah, these all
Speaker 1: these issues and she fallen out with all these people
Speaker 1: and like whatever, But at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: it always comes back to her feeling like I'm fighting
Speaker 1: for myself and y'all don't want to listen because I'm
Speaker 1: a woman.
Speaker 2: Then the conversation be so missed. You can't even hear.
Speaker 2: You don't want to because of all the other drama.
Speaker 2: So tweet me be.
Speaker 1: Outside, we outside, we outside, outside of tweet. I'm Laura
Speaker 1: the Rosa everywhere. L O r E N l O
Speaker 1: r O say I'm on Instagram as well. I I
Speaker 1: want to know are there things that Nicki Minaj could
Speaker 1: do to better have this conversation? I think for me,
Speaker 1: if we're taking it, you know, I mean taking it
Speaker 1: to the streets and the tweets, what can be done
Speaker 1: to better have this conversation away where maybe we cant
Speaker 1: understand where Nikki coming from.
Speaker 2: I think for me, I just would need to see
Speaker 2: more in it. Look be mad at me for saying
Speaker 2: this or not.
Speaker 1: I need to see the receipts because other than that,
Speaker 1: everything is just claims and that's a lot to throw
Speaker 1: on a person, like Hey, because.
Speaker 2: I'm a woman, you did this and you did that.
Speaker 2: I want to like, I want to see the receipts.
Speaker 1: And then once we see the receipts and we know
Speaker 1: that this is happening, then we can kind of backtrack
Speaker 1: and say, Okay, when she did have this conversation, here's
Speaker 1: why she did it.
Speaker 2: Until then, it's like we have nothing to point at.
Speaker 1: I've been covering on a breakfast club, you know, her
Speaker 1: coming at jay Z and alleging that jay Z is
Speaker 1: trying to silence her. Right now, I want to see
Speaker 1: the receipts. Now we're talking about, you know, these big allegations.
Speaker 1: I think receipts are only valid to say, hey, before
Speaker 1: we even have the conversation. I'm asking you guys if
Speaker 1: we should have because y'all know for me, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm totally here for the conversations that's going to shake
Speaker 1: the room of Like, Yo, I'm a woman, and y'all
Speaker 1: playing with me because I am as a woman.
Speaker 2: We've all been in.
Speaker 1: Positions where we felt like our intelligence and you know,
Speaker 1: we've been tested because of egos that you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, don't don't look like ours, male dominated egos.
Speaker 2: We've all been there. So I'll hold that like i'll
Speaker 2: I'll keep that in the back of my mind. But
Speaker 2: we need to see the receipts.
Speaker 1: Nikky, drop them. Let's let's talk. Let's have the conversation.
Speaker 1: You've been a legend these things for years.
Speaker 2: It's jay Z.
Speaker 1: Now that you're alleging it is doing these things to you.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's punch. President of TDE lested the receipts
