Nicki Minaj 'Queen' Promo Run Spirals Into Messy Fight Over Lyrics | Everyday Struggle

On the Wednesday, August 15th episode of #EverydayStruggle, DJ Akademiks, Nadeska and Wayno discuss Nicki Minaj's whirlwind press run for her new album 'Queen,' which took a sharp left turn during her interview with Funk Flex on Hot 97. Nicki spent a sizable portion of the interviewing disputing rumors that her ex boyfriend Safaree has helped her write records in the past. In addition Nicki threw some very personal darts, accusing him of using her credit cards to pay for prostitution, before ripping into him further on Twitter about his hairline and nude pictures. Poor Tyga just got caught up in the middle. But did this go too far? The crew also discusses producer Robert Glasper accusing Lauryn Hill of not crediting the artists who allegedly created her debut album 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.' And Trick Daddy goes off on the haters.
