Memphis Bleek tells Nicki Minaj to “calm down” after JAY-Z makes fun of her for being “banned from NO”
Rather, the Roc-A-Fella veteran urged Nicki to use the NFL Halftime shows to further the shared objective of diversity.
After Nicki Minaj made scathing remarks about JAY-Z and the NFL in Lil Wayne’s “Banned From NO” remix, Memphis Bleek had some things to say about her. Nicki rapped, “NFL, fire some ni**as and then call us,” in the lyric that caused a sensation. Many saw this as a direct jab at the NFL and Hov, who is currently the NFL’s “live music entertainment strategist” thanks to Roc Nation’s association.
In a recent interview with TMZ, Bleek, a Roc-A-Fella veteran and Jay’s longstanding ally, responded to the bars and told Minaj to “calm down.”
“Why? He laughed and remarked, “They don’t need any more ni**as if they fire us.” “So, when we’re done, you won’t be able to get that bag,” he said. Relax. We’re cleaning up, sweetheart. You ought to join us in cleaning up.
Nicki’s bars follow months of annoyance about Lil Wayne’s exclusion from the 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show, despite the fact that the game took place in his native New Orleans. Many, including Minaj, were upset that the NFL had chosen Kendrick Lamar to take the coveted performance slot instead, and she used the remix to voice her opinions.
Bleek made it apparent that he wasn’t here to fight the top rapstress, even though she used her rhymes to criticize the NFL and JAY-Z. “Nicki Minaj is my favorite,” he declared. “I have nothing negative to say about the Queen of Rap.”
He also showed his affection for Lil Wayne by referring to him as his “brother,” but when asked if he still had a chance to succeed in the NFL, he wasn’t sugarcoated. Bleek stated, “It would be if you stop digging your own hole.” “Offending and bringing up things… Allow them to approach you. Something eludes you more the more you desire it.
When Kendrick Lamar was revealed as last year’s Super Bowl headliner, Minaj had previously blasted JAY-Z. A nia knelt down. At the moment, she posted on X, “The other nia took the bag.” Everything in the world is yours. Evil and cruel as ever. Horrible.
