Nicki Minaj has once again taken to X to launch a fiery rant against Jay-Z and Beyoncé amid renewed chatter around the Epstein files, making explosive allegations that the music power couple has “sacrificed children” to gain and maintain influence, claims she offered without evidence. The rapper also appeared to take aim at Trevor Noah, seemingly responding to his 2026 Grammys joke referencing her MAGA ties and support for Donald Trump.
Across multiple posts, Nicki reignited her long-running feud with Jay-Z and Beyoncé, while also announcing that she will not be releasing new music until her contract is renegotiated and until she “exposes all the sabotage” she claims her RICO investigation has uncovered involving Billboard.
While much of the music industry was in a celebratory mood at the 2026 Grammys, Nicki Minaj spent the night on X launching a late-night rant. She kicked things off with a casual “hey, wyd,” before quickly turning her attention toward Jay-Z. The rapper reposted a post that accused Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, of inappropriate conduct, pointing to age gaps in his past relationships and alleging that he began dating Beyoncé when she was still a minor.
She further wrote, "Are y’all understanding that these people have been sacrificing children as a way of gaining & maintaining power? If you ever vote Democrat again, you’re just as soulless as they are & will perish. Maybe it’s time for me to do some story times—since I was trying to not say what I know—yet they continue to attempt bullying.
Also, I won’t be releasing an album until my contract is renegotiated & until I tell you about all the sabotage this RICO is finding out about Billboard."
"Your favorite artist has been practicing rituals in a satanic cult where they take babies from other countries & mutilate & kill them as a form of a blood sacrifice to their God. You see, when your master is Satan, you must constantly shed blood. However, the JIG IS UP," she added in another tweet.Across multiple posts, Nicki reignited her long-running feud with Jay-Z and Beyoncé, while also announcing that she will not be releasing new music until her contract is renegotiated and until she “exposes all the sabotage” she claims her RICO investigation has uncovered involving Billboard.

"Imagine if a 30-year-old rapper was out here with a 16-year-old in this day & age—and how y'all would have his head on a platter. The guy was hugging & humping teens in broad daylight. Next I’ll get on the owner of the shaderoom & more," she wrote in another post.
What did Nicki say about 'Trevor'?
While presenting, Noah jokingly referenced Nicki’s MAGA ties and support for Donald Trump during his opening monologue. After noting that she wasn’t in attendance, he joked that “Nicki Minaj is not here … she’s still at the White House with Donald Trump discussing very important issues,” before launching into a playful Donald Trump impression, saying, “Actually Nicki, I have the biggest a** I know they say it’s you, but it’s me."
Nicki Minaj's Jay-Z feud and MAGA ties
Meanwhile, the 43-year-old rapper has recently made her support for Donald Trump unmistakably public. Just last week, she appeared onstage with the US president at the “Trump Accounts Summit” in Washington, D.C., where she called herself his “No. 1 fan,” pledged to support his new child investment program, and stood alongside him while addressing the crowd, which was widely shared on social media and framed by many as a high-profile MAGA endorsement.

For the unversed, Jay-Z’s name surfaced in the latest tranche of Jeffrey Epstein-related documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice, alongside figures like Harvey Weinstein and Pusha T, based on unverified FBI tip-line reports rather than confirmed investigative evidence. These reports include anonymous accounts alleging that a victim woke up in a room with Epstein, Weinstein, and Jay-Z, but it's noteworthy that being named in the files doesn’t mean he was investigated, charged, or shown to have any connection to Epstein’s crimes.
