In the world of hip-hop, clashes between artists are not uncommon, but when powerful figures like Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion lock horns, it’s bound to make headlines. What started as a lyrical exchange has escalated into a full-blown feud, with shots fired both on and off social media.
It all began with Megan’s latest single “Hiss,” where she seemingly took aim at Nicki’s husband, Kenneth Petty, who is a registered sex offender. Referencing Megan’s Law, a federal statute mandating the disclosure of information about sex offenders, Megan rapped, “These hoes don’t be mad at Megan, these hoes mad at Megan’s Law.” The lines didn’t sit well with Nicki, who wasted no time in hitting back.
Nicki previewed an unreleased track on Instagram Live, firing shots at Megan and referencing the incident where Megan was shot in the foot by Tory Lanez. With lyrics like, “Bad b**h she like six foot, I call her Big Foot,” Nicki made her feelings clear. But it didn’t stop there.
During the Live session, Nicki criticized Megan’s rapping skills, despite Megan’s three Grammy wins. She also made personal attacks, bringing up Megan’s deceased mother and accusing her of lying. The feud spilled over onto social media, with Nicki labeling Megan a “disgusting serpent” and using hashtags like #MeganRAW to taunt her.
But the drama didn’t end with social media jabs. Nicki went on Stationhead to further express her grievances, accusing Megan of throwing others under the bus and urging her to apologize to those she’s wronged.
Meanwhile, “Hiss” marks the second single from Megan’s upcoming album, following her successful independent release “Cobra.” Despite the feud, Megan’s music continues to resonate with fans, with “Cobra” reaching impressive chart positions.
As the feud between Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion continues to unfold, fans are left wondering if there will be a truce or if this rivalry will only intensify. One thing’s for sure: in the world of rap, drama is never far behind.
