Many fans on social media took the opportunity to join in the praise of Nicki Minaj. On a post of the tweets by The Neighborhood Talk, one fan commented, "Some people like to try and rewrite history & Nicki is just showing that she already made that history." Another reflected on Nicki's beef with Cardi B: "I wish she acted her status!! Iconic yes but she should’ve never been bothered by CardiB because she was the Beyoncé of rap. Beyoncé would never come off the throne because Sza had a run. She’s so bothered by Cardi, I guess now she sees how Lil Kim felt." Check out Nicki Minaj's recent posts on Twitter below.
