Nicki Minaj’s feud with Jay-Z has become one of the most talked-about conflicts in hip-hop. The clash reportedly began over creative differences and industry disagreements. While neither has fully aired all the details publicly, the feud has sparked widespread speculation among fans. Now, Minaj is adding more fuel to the fire after a recent X post claiming she’s no longer planning to release her upcoming album, which had an anticipated 2026 release — and she tagged Jay-Z in the post.

Nicki Minaj’s fans are stunned by her X post, which she released on Oct. 15, 2025.

“Ok I’m not going to put out the album anymore. No more music. Hope you’re happy now [sic],” she posted. Minaj then tagged Jay-Z’s X account, @sc.

“Bye, Barbz,” she continued. “Love you for life.”

Minaj’s ongoing feud with Jay-Z has intensified in recent months. The conflict appears to have roots in Minaj’s dissatisfaction with her involvement in Jay-Z’s streaming platform, TIDAL. According to XXL Magazine, she claims that she was shortchanged for her 3% equity stake, alleging she received only $1 million instead of an estimated $9 million, and now asserts that Jay-Z owes her between $100-$200 million.

The feud escalated in 2024 when Minaj criticized Jay-Z and Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez for selecting Kendrick Lamar over Lil Wayne to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show in New Orleans. She expressed that the opportunity should have gone to New Orleans native Lil Wayne.

As of now, Jay-Z has not publicly responded to Minaj’s X post about her scrapping her record. And it’s unclear what Jay-Z has to do with Minaj’s recent decision.
