Double Tap to Zoom

Nicki Minaj returned with a new installment of ‘Queen Radio’, yesterday. With the release of “Hot Girl Summer” fans were hoping to hear Megan Thee Stallion drop by the Beats 1 studio, instead, Minaj invited Joe Budden. This was a somewhat surprising move, given their antagonistic relationship in the past.

From the outset, it looked as though things would remain amicable, with Budden offering an olive branch, saying, “Joe is here to make peace with the Barbz.”

However, he did not. The two soon got into old beef, including Budden's claim that Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion's Live Session was planned, and whether she knew about Cardi B's verse on Migos' "Motorsport." But things got really intense when Budden accused Minaj of being hypocritical about her drug use.

"Your entire last album did that. Your past is littered with it. Who gives a fuck what she pop? But don't sit here and act like you've never popped a pill," Budden said.

Minaj responded “I never said that you dumb fuck! Cut his fucking mic since you wanna be dumb!" before adding “You like tearing down women when they can’t defend themselves." Listen to everything that went down before Budden was kicked off the show

While insults were traded, it seems the two have already recovered and Minaj will appear on Budden's podcast shortly.
