Nicki Minaj and Cardi B call unexpected truce after day of fighting
After an epic showdown, Nicki Minaj and Cardi B are seemingly ready to put an end to their long-running feud.
Following Cardi’s Instagram tirade on Monday (Oct. 29), Nicki responded to Cardi’s numerous claims, including that she was offered the Diesel deal first and turned down songs such as Little Mix’s “Woman Like Me.”
“The only rapper in the history of rap who can only talk about deals and songs she’s supposedly turned down cuz she can’t talk about a verse she’s ever written. Fkn fraud,” Nicki tweeted.
She blasted Cardi for allegedly lying and offered to pay her to take a lie detector test about “every claim I made on #QueenRadio.” Additionally, she claims that Cardi was responsible for telling Offset not to do London On Da Track’s “No Flag” video because she felt Minaj was dissing her.

I’ll pay you to take a lie detector test about every claim I made on #QueenRadio. You won’t. I must admit you’re a convincing liar. You looked me dead in my face & said you told ya man not to do the “no flags” video cuz I was dissing you. London on da Track got the same call.

Cardi claims that she was offered the Diesel campaign before Minaj, but turned it down. In response, Nicki said she turned down the Steve Madden deal, which Cardi took.
She also brought up the frequently discussed topic of Cardi’s pen game. Minaj has claimed numerous times that Cardi does not write her own songs, and even called her “Milli Vanilli” on Future and Juice WRLD’s “Transformer.”
“BABY GIRL WRITE A RAP!” declared Nicki.

During her Instagram rant, Cardi claimed that she was offered Little Mix’s “Woman Like Me” before Nicki. Little Mix has denied the claim and says that they approached both women about appearing on the song, but ultimately ended up going with Minaj. “It’s been a dream of ours to work with her since the beginning,” said the group in a statement.

Nicki also says that Cardi’s lawyer threatened her Wilhelmina Models agent if he released the Diesel deal receipts. Cardi claims she was offered the deal first, but Nicki’s agent has refuted the claim. Cardi then posted (and deleted) the preliminary offer that she received from Diesel to do their capsule collection.
Her lawyer just called my agent threatening him for putting out the receipts. 😩😅🤣 #DipVIDEO #WomanLikeMe

After all the back and forth, Nicki called for an end to the beef. “Ok you guys, let’s focus on positive things only from here on out. We’re all so blessed,” she said. “I know this stuff is entertaining & funny to a lot of people but I won’t be discussing this nonsense anymore. Thank you for the support & encouragement year after year. Love you.”

Cardi seemed to be on board with the truce, posting a screenshot of Minaj’s tweet and adding, “@Nickiminaj alright then! Let’s keep it positive and keep it pushing!”
