Minaj wrote on the social media platform, “Do you all realize that these people are sacrificing children as a way to gain and maintain power? If you vote for a Democrat again, you will be as soulless and destroyed as they are.”

Also, I won’t release an album until my contract is renegotiated and I won’t tell you about all the spoilers I’m finding out about this RICO billboard.”
Minaj shared photos of Jay-Z with Aaliyah and Beyoncé in 1996 and 1997. She posted another photo of the rapper.
Minaj’s rant came after Trevor Noah poked fun at her over her beef with Jay-Z during last night’s Grammy Awards. It must be noted that Minaj has had a beef with Jay-Z and his entertainment company Roc-Nation for quite some time. He accused them of owing him money and of ‘sabotaging’ the music industry.
However, Minaj’s rant seems to highlight her brother’s past crimes as well as her husband’s. The former was convicted of rape and the latter was convicted of attempted rape.
“Nicki Minaj calls Jay-Z a child predator while her brother is currently in prison for the child and her husband *X is a criminal”. Another added, “Nicki Minaj is the only female artist with an abusive boyfriend, an abusive brother, an abusive husband…she’s the first female artist to achieve this!”. Another said, “…your brother raped a child and your husband is a registered sex offender who can’t even be around children.”
Nicki Minaj’s brother is a past crimeNicki Minaj’s brother Jelani Maraz was sentenced to 25 years in prison in 2020 for raping an 11-year-old child. He was convicted of predatory sexual assault and child endangerment in 2017. During the trial in 2015, the survivor said she was repeatedly raped by Maraz while her mother was at work.
The girl added that it happened four times a week and sometimes up to twice a day, and testified that her younger brother also witnessed an attack.
Maraz, then 41, appealed the conviction but the judge rejected it.
