Nicki Minaj is calling out Jay-Z over a massive unpaid debt she claims is long overdue. The rapper took to X on Tuesday, saying the music mogul owes her somewhere between $100 million and $200 million.
According to her, the money is connected to past business dealings, including her share from Tidal’s 2021 sale; a deal she believes didn’t go fairly. “Jay-Z, call me to settle this karmic debt,” she posted. “It’s only piling up more interest. You’re still in my Top 5 though.”

Davido says he’ll be a Vulcaniser in His Next Life Because People Hate His Rich Background
Davido, the Nigerian music star and son of billionaire businessman Adedeji Adeleke, has stirred reactions online after saying he would return as a vulcaniser in his next life. He made the remark while responding to critics who mocked him for constantly showing off his father’s private jets. According to him, many are clearly upset that he gets to travel the world for free, but he reminded them it’s simply his birthright.
The Afrobeats singer didn’t hold back as he fired back at those downplaying his hard work because of his wealthy background. He threw in some sarcasm, saying that maybe in his next life, he would be a vulcaniser so people would finally rest.
Taking to his X account, he wrote, “This free jet wey I dey fly all around the world dey really pain una. I’m sorry it’s my birthright. In my next life, I go come back as vulcaniser. Ma binu.”
Davido has often spoken about how his background attracts hate in the music scene, despite the fact that he has built his own brand and career over the years. He believes people still struggle to give him credit because of where he comes from.
Nigerian singer Ayra Starr shares her opinion on which African country cooks the best jollof rice.
In a recent interview, the singer spoke about the best African jollof rice when asked. She first shared that she had just tried Senegalese jollof rice and applauded it, but still maintained that Nigeria is number one, while recognizing that Senegalese rice is good.
“I just tried Senegalese jollof rice, so right now, Nigerian jollof is always gonna be number one, but I get why people say they are the originators of jollof rice.”
