Fivio Foreign recently discussed his viral video from last year in which he mistakenly thought the hook of Nicki Minaj’s song, “Everybody,” was a shoutout to him. He reflected on the mishap during an interview with The Breakfast Club on Thursday. Fivio and Minaj previously collaborated on the track, “We Go Up,” in 2022.
“It sound like she said 'Fivi' right?” he laughed, referencing a point in the song where Minaj says “body.”. “Nah, somebody told me that. [They were like], ‘Look, she says Fivi!’ But you know what it is? I ain’t really listen to the whole song. I was just hearing that part. They was like, ‘The sample is going viral on TikTok.’ I’m like, oh sh*t. [But then] I listened to the song and I saw the title and I’m like, ‘Oh sh*t. Aight.’ But I knew it before I posted it, but I was like, I’m still gonna post it.”
