Nicki Minaj has canceled her upcoming performance at this year’s BET Experience.
The Queen rapper abruptly canceled an appearance for which she was already booked, as well as, any planned appearance at the upcoming BET Awards show. Nicki Minaj made the announcement on Twitter on Monday after BET appears to take a jab at her when they announced Cardi B winning a Grammy for Best Rap Album. Nicki and the network are now in a heated argument on Twitter, and now her fans got involved.
Both Nicki Minaj and Cardi B were announced as headlining acts for the 7th annual BET Experience this summer, and she was slated to appear at the upcoming BET Hip-Hop Awards. The head Barb also tweeted that the entire Young Money roster will be boycotting BET Awards and all other upcoming award shows. Young Money leader, Lil Wayne is also a headlining act on the show, and now it’s unclear if he too will go ahead and cancel his performance.
“Young Money will no longer be apart of the BET Experience or award show. Summer Tour dates dropping soon,” Nicki tweeted before telling a fan that she can get a refund for her tickets to the show.
It appears that BET caption of a tweet that got under Nicki Minaj’s skin. “Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj is being dragged by her lacefront,” the Network wrote. The post has since been deleted, but not before fans got a screenshot of it and shared it on Twitter.

What BET posted about Nicki Minaj in regards to cardi b is so foul. Nicki has supported the bet awards for years when no other A list black artists were ever giving it the time of day.
