According to Nicki Minaj, herself, along with other Cash Money Records members including Lil Wayne, will no longer headline a tour with Cardi-B.

The news comes after last nights historic Grammy win for the Bronx native Cardi-B, who won best album for a female rap artist. A tweet from BET’s Twitter post Cardi’s win, prompted Nicki’s response of she would not be attending the BET experience awards show.

Last nights Grammy win was historic for the Bronx native Cardi-B, who could still be considered a relatively new artist. She won best album for a female rap artist.

A tweet from BET’s Twitter post Cardi’s win, prompted Nicki’s response that she would not be attending their award show or headline their concert and urged her fans to get a refund for purchased tickets. BET has since apologized for the tweets, stating it was unauthorized by the company.


“BET loves Nicki Minaj. We have supported her from the very beginning of her career and will continue to do so moving forward. Nicki has paved the way for so many performers and has solidified her place as one of the most powerful figures in the music industry. Unfortunately the respect we have for Nicki was violated by this post that should never have been written. The post does not reflect how we feel about Nicki. And further does not reflect our company values.


We deeply apologize for the hurt, disappointment and confusion that this post has caused. We are committed to doing everything we can to address the situation. We are also conducting an internal audit to assure these types of posts are not published again. We have apologized to Nicki and her team. The post has been removed and we have taken additional appropriate action. We understand Nicki’s position and look forward to continuing our dialogue with her. Finally, we apologize to all of her fans. This should have never happened. “

The tweet has since been deleted by BET.
