Rapper Nicki Minaj has shared a few X posts targeting Shawn Corey Carter, aka Jay-Z. This happened after Carter’s name surfaced in the recently released Epstein files. On February 1, Minaj shared a post from September 2024, which claimed that Carter was involved with various women, including Foxy Brown and Aaliyah. Minaj reshared the X post and asked if this was true or false.

She also shared photos of Carter and other women and mentioned their respective ages. Nicki Minaj captioned it:

“Are y’all understanding that these ppl have been sacrificing children as a way of gaining & maintaining power? If you ever vote DemonCrat 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.”

In another post seemingly targeted to Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj wrote:

“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.”

Nicki Minaj said she would go after the owner of Shade Room

In another X post, Nicki Minaj said her documentary had been intentionally harmed because she talked about abuse she had experienced. She explained that they tried to delay her projects so she would lose money and be forced to ask them for help.

She added that those in charge did not take the situation seriously, but she warned that they would face serious consequences. She said she had asked to be left alone and believed they would now understand why. Targeting Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj wrote in another post:

“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 on teens in broad day light. Next I’ll get on the owner of the shaderoom & more.”

The rapper also felt that she should talk about the “brainwashing techniques,” as she wrote:

“Maybe I should discuss the brain washing techniques they use.”

To go back to the beginning, Nicki Minaj and Jay-Z's beef began in 2015. At the time, Carter owned a streaming service known as TIDAL. He sold it. Minaj was supposed to get an equity share, but she didn’t. Her fans noticed it. Between 2022 and 2023, Minaj accused Jay-Z's Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez of blackmailing her and also hampering her career.

In 2025, Minaj went on with claims that Roc Nation owed her money. At the time, her fans also mentioned the TIDAL issue. However, Carter did not seemingly respond to the claims.
