Last week, Nicki Minaj announced that she had to push back her album by a week in order to clear a sample. While many were upset, she surprised fans during her inaugural episode of "Queen Radio" on Beats1 by announcing that the album would arrive today. Thusfar, fans have been praising the Queens rapper for her work on the project. However, one song in particular caught everyone's attention. On "Barbie Dreams," Nicki Minaj fires shots at several of her male peers in the game such as her ex Meek Mill, 50 Cent, 6ix9ine, Young Thug and more. While Meek and Fif have responded, Young Thug has since hit Twitter to issue a reply.

"@NICKIMINAJ I'm not good luv... but enjoy," he tweeted with a crying emoji.
