Not long ago, we reported on a long-form interview that Nicki Minaj gave, during which she asserted that she was responsible for helping to make female rappers relevant to a larger audience again. “My role in hip-hop has been super unique because when my first album came out, there had been so much time where there wasn’t a female rap album out that went platinum,” she said. “There wasn’t a big female rap presence right before I got in. So, my role was reintroducing the female rapper to pop culture.” She later passed around some of the accolades, but says that she was still in the right place at the right time. “I don’t think we got that much credit. I think female rappers have always been dope and influential, but I think I sort of came in at a time where big business was paying attention, so I was able to capitalize off of a lot of deals and business ventures,” she continued.

It’s definitely hard to argue the point, especially after she passed the legendary Aretha Franklin and became the woman with the most Hot 100 singles ever. However, some fans were quick to take Minaj, 34, down a few notches for her comments. Today, the rapper responded via Instagram to those who she claims have “remixed her words.”
