Nicki Minaj is sick of talking about Cardi B and Remy Ma.

Nicki Minaj's album Queen just dropped but in the past few days, other things have clouded the strength of the project. Ever since Nicki came out of hiding earlier this year, she's been bombarded with questions regarding her alleged beef with Cardi B. In her latest episode of "Queen Radio," Ebro asked Nicki about her issues with Cardi B and Remy Ma. However, Nicki was clearly done answering questions about either one of them.

"Can we please move on, Ebro? C’mon. Honestly, let’s go." She said as she interrupted Ebro mid-sentence. "If you know me, you would know the answer to the first question. Like, give me a fuckin’ break."

Her answer seemed to reference her feud with Remy Ma but she spoke further about Cardi B.

"I didn't know Cardi and I had an issue, but I guess we do since you're saying it and other people are saying it. To me, she may have taken an issue with things that I've said but I'm not going to bite my tongue," she said. "You gotta have thick skin. People talk shit about me all the time. I don't tell people, 'Oh, stop posting me' 'cause I see one bad thing about myself. You can't expect to be liked and love and praised all the fuckin' time. Give me a break." 

Nicki didn't say exactly what she may have said to ruffle Cardi's feathers but clearly, she doesn't want to talk about her beef with Cardi, Remy or any one else.
