Nicki Flames Steve Madden For Jumping into Cardi Beef, Ye's Done with Politics | Everyday Struggle

On Wednesday’s (Oct. 31) episode of #EverydayStruggle, Nadeska, Wayno and DJ Akademiks discuss Steve Madden’s involvement in the Cardi B x Nicki Minaj beef. The American designer claims that Nicki was never offered a deal with his brand Steve Madden. However, Steve’s claims backfired on him when Nicki and 50 Cent pulled up a 2015 Vibe interview in which Steve admits to reaching out to Nicki for a potential collab with his brand. The deal eventually failed due to a fight Steve had with Nicki. The EDS crew then takes a look into Yachty’s recent comments on Nicki and Cardi. According to a recent interview on BET’s Raq Rant show, the ATL rapper says he’s riding with Cardi due to his alliance with QC, and claims he would not work with Nicki on any music due to his loyalty. Halfway through the episode, the crew dissects Kanye West’s latest Twitter rant. According to ‘Ye, he’s done with politics and moving more into his creative zone. The crew wraps up today's show on a Halloween tip discussing YG’s epic Michael Jackson get-up.
