Nicki Minaj may have been cut off during the MTV VMA’s back in August after she attempted to confront Miley Cyrus for some of her comments (click HERE) but now the rap superstar is speaking out about her thoughts on Miley and it isn’t pretty.

On Wednesday (October 7), the New York Times Magazine published an expose featuring Nicki and during the interview, she says that Miley is appropriating black culture for her own benefit but doesn’t care about the issues that plague the black community.
“The fact that you feel upset about me speaking on something that affects black women makes me feel like you have some big balls,” Minaj told Grigoriadis regarding Cyrus. “You’re in videos with black men, and you’re bringing out black women on your stages, but you don’t want to know how black women feel about something that’s so important?”
“Come on, you can’t want the good without the bad,” she said in the interview. “If you want to enjoy our culture and our lifestyle, bond with us, dance with us, have fun with us, twerk with us, rap with us, then you should also want to know what affects us, what is bothering us, what we feel is unfair to us. You shouldn’t not want to know that.”
Nicki also went off a little on the interviewer when she questioned Nicki on her thoughts on the beef between her boyfriend Meek Mill and her label mate and good friend Drake.
“That’s the typical thing that women do. What did you putting me down right there do for you? Women blame women for things that have nothing to do with them. I really want to know why — as a matter of fact, I don’t. Can we move on, do you have anything else to ask? To put down a woman for something that men do, as if they’re children and I’m responsible, has nothing to do with you asking stupid questions, because you know that’s not just a stupid question. That’s a premeditated thing you just did.”
One person who was not here for Nicki’s gripes about Miley are fellow female MC Azealia Banks. Banks had previously critiqued the feud between Miley and Nicki and today she added her two cents into the mix. Read what she had to say from the bottom up.
