Exactly two days ago, lyricist extraordinaire Remy Ma basically bodied Onika “Nicki Minaj” Maraj. There was an undercurrent or subliminals jabs being thrown for a while but more recently the last two songs Nicki did features on. Now we know Remy Ma has been locked for about eight years and was released about 2 years ago. Nicki Minaj has been doing her thing that whole time and basically took over a landscape with no contenders. She self crowned herself the queen of rap and even when Lil Kim went up against her basically telling the world that Nicki copied everything Lil Kim was. I mean if you couldn’t the see that you were truly blind. But once Nicki really got her stride, her whole look began to change as did her flow. When most artists come out especially in the hip hop game, hungry is never an issue. They want to be put on and be known so they can make that money. That is what Onika was before Nicki was born. We then saw her basically on everybody’s song or album and that album blowing up and riding high on Billboard and ITunes Charts. Nicki then realized that making music for the masses isn’t hard as long as the beat is there and she can say whatever foolishness she wishes. I mean I have heard the missteps with Stupid ho being a prime example but that didn’t really dent her. She then put her name on clothes and has her own drink. She made sure her money was gonna come in no matter the 3 360 deals she signed. The rap landscape was too open for a female rapper and realistically those that challenged her only had their die hard fans stand behind them.
This is why the Remy Ma diss was the wake up call Ms. Onika needed. This is example of complacency gone wrong. When the landscape is open , it is not time to rest in your laurels. The hip hop game out of all the music genres always has a hungry new one on the horizon and if you are not looking you will get hit by a Mack truck. Remy Ma pulled no punches and flatlined Nicki.
Remy Ma shether
[Hook]
(I) Fuck with your soul like shETHER
(Will) You ain’t the queen, I’ll show you
(Not) Lipo your ass and belly
(Lose) I prove you lost already
[Verse]
They told you your whole career I’d come home and kill you, right? Ha-ha!
I told you I wasn’t talkin’ about your dumb
shETHER lyrics by Remy Ma complete
[Intro]
Free Remy!
(Word)
You know what? Free Remy!
Fuck you, Free Remy!
(Fuck Nicki Minaj)
Are you dumb?
You wore a pink diamond chicken wing chain (Are you dumb?)
You had a leopard beehive on your head (Are you dumb?)
(Fuck Nicki Minaj)
Are you forgettin’ that I pressed you before, bitch?
(Fuck Nicki Minaj)
[Hook]
(I) Fuck with your soul like shETHER
(Will) You ain’t the queen, I’ll show you
(Not) Lipo your ass and belly
(Lose) I prove you lost already
[Verse]
They told you your whole career I’d come home and kill you, right? Ha-ha!
I told you I wasn’t talkin’ about your dumb ass
It looks stupid, you literally got a dumb ass
Talking cray, and we all know that you dumb ass
You get Donkey of the Day, yeah you dumb ass
Let’s be honest, you stole that line ’bout bitches being your sons
How you take my ’09 jail tweet and run?
Talking ’bout bringing knives to a fight with guns
When the only shot you ever took was in your buns
And I saw Meek at All-Star, he told me your ass dropped
He couldn’t fuck you for three months because your ass dropped
Now I don’t think y’all understand how bad her ass got
The implants that she had put in her ass popped
I was like, “Damn, 90 days and you couldn’t have box?
Did she at least compensate? Start giving you mad top?
Her name Minaj, right? She ain’t throw you some bad thots?”
He said “Nah,” that’s when I knew you was really a trash bop
You was screaming “Free Remy” when I was upstate doomed
But now that they freed Remy, you don’t sing the same tune
Locked me up, threw away my keys, threw away my weaves
Snatched me from my son, braids to the back, state greens
Daily News, “Her career’s over,” “She was kinda stupid,”
But you saw a opportunity ’cause you a opportunist
Left your Day 1 ’cause you heard he was on some cheat shit
Then got with the dude that told you on some creep shit
But what happened to Omeeka? Nah, on some G shit
Left him and took a pic with the dude he had beef with?
And we all know it was a beef that you started
Pillow-talking out of your ass, this bitch retarded
Now you gotta die, you dearly departed
Blood bath, when I catch you, a real red carpet
Now what I’ma do, I’ma just stick to the facts
Bitch so scared of my future, got this bitch going backwards
Been through mad crews, you disloyal hoochie
Now all of a sudden you back with Drake and Tunechi?
After he said you sucked his dick, you back with Gucci?
Who next, Puff, Deb or Fendi? You a A-list groupie
And to be the Queen of Rap, you gotta actually rap
The whole industry know that your shit is a wrap
No, to be the Queen of Rap, you can’t have a ghostwriter
And that’s why this is my house, Flo Rida
Niggas done seen Drake penning, Wayne penning
And since your first boyfriend left, bitch ain’t winning
You a Internet troll, a Web browser, I’m sorry
You can’t get her online with out Safaree!
Mentioning guns, you Pussy Galore, James Bond
Only time you touch a trigga is when you fucked Trey Songz
Coke head, you cheated on your man with Ebro
I might leak the footage of you sniffing them ski slopes
They gassing you up, but you been on E, though
“Pills and Potions,” yep, you been on E, hoe
Got your ghostwriters back, so you think you lit
Rem Belushi, I’m a Ghostbuster, bitch
I’m supposed to be scared ’cause you bought your Barbie chain back?
I’ll revert to “Ante Up,” you’ll get your Barbie chain yapped
Tried to front in February, catch you in that Maybach
Show you how to use your name, you be using your name wack
I’m saying, how you mix Nicki with a Minaj?
I’ma park this bitch, put Nicki in the garage
I’m getting money like Nicky Barnes, I’m the big homie
I responded in less than 48 Hours, Nick Nolte
Getting close like Nick Jonas, gripping the gauge
Then blaze off, Face Off, bitch, Nicolas Cage
You animated like Nickelodeon, you fake, bitch
Only the kids believe in you, you St. Nick
Now when I shoot Nick at Nite, they won’t understand it
I’m Wild’n Out, bout to hit Nick with the Cannon
How are you on the VMAs acting like you hood?
Way across the stage, talking ’bout “Miley, what’s good?”
That’s Hannah Montana, she was always happy
You only fronted on Mariah ’cause Mariah don’t carry
Tried to disrespect Taylor ’cause Taylor wasn’t Swift enough
Pillsbury Doughgirl, Remy pick the biscuit up
I’m jealous? Bitch, you was happy when they took me
Best thing that ever happened to you was when they booked me
You said you never fucked Wayne, how stupid I look, B?
Get the picture, I’ll expose you, I’m kind of a bully
You named yourself Nicki Lewinsky, the mind of a rookie
‘Cause you was sucking his dick and now he tired of your nookie
You claimed you never fucked Drake, now that’s where you took me
You fucked the whole Empire, who you trying to be, Cookie?
Boogie Down Bronx, I come out of the Boogie
To let you know real bitches never lie on their pussy
And stop talking numbers, you signed a 360 deal
Through Young Money, through Cash Money, through Republic
Which means your money go through five niggas before you touch it
Any videos, promotions come out of your budget
Endorsements, tour and merchandise, they finger-fuck it
You make like 35 cents off of each ducat
I own my masters, bitch, independent
So for every sale I do, you gotta do like ten
Stop comparing yourself to Jay, you not like him
You a motherfucking worker, not a boss like Rem
You’re done, them pop chicks ain’t get the news yet
Bitch, I pop chicks, yeah and I’m the new vet
I kill rappers, and you good as dead, bitch
Talking shit about me to a deaf bitch
And usually I have sympathy for the impaired
But not when you hard of hearing from untreated gonorrhea
But you point your fingers at me?
I’m the bad girl when she the one out here misleading the black girls?
All these fake asses influenced by that girl
Dying from botched surgeries, what a sad world
But before the butt job, you was a Spongebob
Sucking cock for records, captain of the cum squad
And I got a few words for the moms of the young Barbz
Guess who supports a child molester? Nicki Minaj
You paid for your brother’s wedding? That’s hella foul
How you spending money to support a pedophile?
He a walking dead man, sending threats to him
I guess that’s why they call you Barbie, you was next to Ken
Talkin’ ‘bout your money long and your foreign sick
Why you ain’t help your bro hide his cum from forensics
You probably somewhere overseas, foreign sick
Thought you could fuck with me, by far Rem sick
Meek, Drake, Safaree, I see men in your pants
We call that Jelani, get it? Semen in your pants
Uh, I got trigger fingers, you got bitter fingers
Yeah, you must think you Drake and I’m Twitter fingers
VH1, watch this
You just got bodied by a Love & Hip-Hop bitch
[Outro]
Don’t ever in your fucking life play with me
That’s on the set!
You tried it on the Rae Sremmurd record
You tried it on your little freestyle
They was both duds, just like every other one was duds
Just like this last one was a dud
But what you not gonna do is keep subbin’ me
Big…Pun!
I send a fucking headshot, you dead, bitch!
Will not lose!
While all this happened, Nicki decided to show her anger toward those who were mentioned in the diss and post her charts and Remy’s charts numbers and then post their respective net worth. Now while that may appease the new music consumer, those that follow old school hip hop are waiting for Nicki to go in the booth and respond. Some are waiting for Nicki to come back and re-awaken the beast that is named Roman and actually doing rapping than the pop rap she has been doing for the past eight years.
It seems though that Nicki is bothered but only to a certain degree. She is out here shooting videos reviving her ‘Barbie’ persona and making her coin.
Whatever the outcome, hopefully it will increase Remy Ma’s profile and fill her coffers and makes Nicki go back to being hard while making bank.
Either way, decent distraction from the bullshit that is the United States right now.
