Nicki Minaj Calls Travis Scott 'Autotune Man' & Compares Herself To Harriet Tubman!

Nicki Minaj Travis Scott Kylie Jenner Queen Radio

Nicki Minaj took off the gloves on #QueenRadio, her NSFW Beats Radio 1 broadcast, on Tuesday!
Perhaps inspired by the VMAs Monday night, she gave out her own awards, including “C***sucker of the Day” and “Secret Hater of the Year.”
Oh, and “Hoe N**** of the Week” which she said Travis Scott won “by a f**king landslide.”

She then doubled down on her take that Queen, not Astroworld, was the #1 album of the week:

“Travis Scott is out here selling f**king clothes, and he got y’all thinking he’s selling f**king music. Sit your stupid ass down!”

She went on to say Scott pulled a stunt on purpose, using Kylie Jenner and Stormi Webster to sell more not-albums only after he saw her coming:

“When [Scott] realized that Queen was about to [be] the Number One album in America, he and his label decided to have Kylie and baby Stormi put up a tour pass … He had her post and say, ‘Hey, me and Stormi can’t wait to see y’all.’ How are you selling something that does not have anything to do with your album but it is being counted on Billboard as album sales?”

She went even further, calling Travis “autotune man,” saying:

“What we’re not gonna do is have this autotune man selling f**king sweaters telling you he sold half a million albums, because he f**king didn’t. You stupid f**k. You got your f**king homeboy talking for you and you got your girlfriend selling tour passes. Stop it. Knock it the f**k off.”

She continued:

“When [Travis] comes along and sells a tour pass that has nothing to do with his f**king music and says he’s sold more than Kanye West and Nas—no you f**king didn’t, keep it the f**k real. I know I’m that bitch, I know I’m Number 1.”

After all that she turned around and said “none of this is some serious anger s**t” but did say it was important not to stay quiet:

“If I come to your job … and told you not to speak out about things that are unfair, that would be f**king crazy. People think that because you’re rich and famous, you shouldn’t be able to speak out about things in your own industry that are unfair. There’s a lot of rappers behind the scene that want to talk about it and they’re scared. But sweetheart, I’m not scared.”

More controversially, she compared herself to Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks in her fight with Spotify:

“Harriet Tubman had to shake s**t up, Rosa Parks had to shake s**t up. Rosa Parks probably had the worst day of her life when she said, ‘no, enough is enough.’ And y’all might laugh and say, ‘she’s comparing herself to Harriet Tubman.’ Man, f**k you — I am going to compare myself to strong, black queens.”

Way, WAY more controversially, she continued defending rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine, who plead guilty to using a child in a sexual performance — and who was featured on her song Fefe:

“Tekashi, I wanted to perform with me at the VMAs. And somewhere along the line he didn’t get approved to perform by the powers that be. I don’t want anyone to think for a second that I would not have asked him to come on my stage to perform his amazing hit ‘Fefe.’ I want everyone to know my character. I would never ever ever. And it is what it is. The thing with me, when I know somebody there’s nothing you can tell me about them. That’s just how it is. So people have a lot to say because obviously the Nicki hate train is in full effect. So I laugh, I don’t give a f**k, y’all cant stop me. I ain’t going nowhere.”

Oof. Not a good look.
What do YOU think of Nicki’s latest??
