Nicki Minaj announces her retirement from music.............PRAISE THE LAWD

[ArsenalCannon357]

Nicki Minaj says she is retiring from music.

“I’ve decided to retire & have my family,” the rapper said in a tweet posted Thursday afternoon. “I know you guys are happy now. To my fans, keep reppin me, do it til da death of me, in the box- cuz ain’t nobody checkin me. Love you for LIFE.”


Last month, Minaj revealed her intention to marry boyfriend Kenneth Petty. “I think I have what I was striving for, just happiness,” she explained during a recent episode of her Queen Radio show on Apple Music. “It was so hard to get to a happy place. Now that I’m there, I don’t want to compromise that for anyone or anything.”

When she made those comments, however, Minaj gave no indication that she’d be putting her music career on the back burner. In fact, she said the couple was planning their wedding around the making of her new album. “I have work on my album and I have a lot to focus on that I don’t want to do the big wedding now. We’ll do the big wedding later,” she explained.

It remains to be seen whether Minaj actually intends to hang up her heels for good or will ultimately pull a JAY-Z (aka retire from music only to return a couple years later). The latter obviously seems much more likely; in the meantime, we’ve reached out to Minaj’s representatives for more information.

Minaj released her last album, Queen, in August 2018. Back in June, she released a new single called “Megatron”, and recently teamed up with Megan Thee Stallion on “Hot Girl Summer”.

Heat check.

 

[TEN]

 

[Riggz]

Classic move from the ol' rapper playbook. She'll be back.

 

[ronmch20]

Her retirement will last about as long as her marriage.

 

[tallblacknyc]

10 year span...longer than most people would've ever projected

 

[TEN]

fitting also that her new name will be Mrs Petty

 

[REDLINE]

I don’t listen to her like the rest of you so it doesn’t matter to me.

 

[Mr. Met]

She wasn’t horrible and had a ton of bangers.

She’ll be back, just hope she loses those useless enhancements already.

The gimmick is up....I'll see you in a few Nicki.

I've never actually heard her music unless it was on the radio and I turn that shit off.

She was/is a decent rapper. She was/is a better than average singer. You’re right about the gimmick; it was cool when she was in her 20s and her fan base was 18-30 year old girls/women. She’s mid-30s now and her fan base are legit adults (or grandmothers ) and she’s rapping about the same shit. It was a good ride. She could shake out a few more coins possibly with a switch to R&B.

Her old target demo now belongs to Cardi B.

[Hotlantan]

Lots of headlines over one random vague tweet. Mission accomplished.

[blackman80]

I bet she don't retire from plastic surgery .... shit, she'll probably end up going "full, all out Lil Kim" and start skin bleaching too ...

[TimRock]

Cool. Good for her.

 

[BrownTurd]

Soooooo, She marrying a dude who was convicted of rape and manslaughter...smh That was the best she could do?

According to public records, Petty was convicted in 1995 of first-degree attempted rape of a 16-year-old; TMZ notes he used “a sharp object” during said incident. Petty, who was also 16 at the time, ended up serving four years in prison. In the mid-2000s, Petty was again convicted, this time of first-degree manslaughter. He served a seven-year sentence and was released in 2013.

It’s believed the 36-year-old Minaj and father-of-five Petty know each other from Queens

[UNSEEN]

[Lexx Diamond]

[D'Evils]

 

[Bawse Nigguh]

This bitch cant do better than a aex offending manslaughtering nigga with 5 kids? It just goes to show women will be stupid no matter what opportunities they have. I congratulate this nigga on hitting the dumb bitch lotto. LONG LIVE CARDI B

 

[hocjo2626]

[playahaitian]

When you announce your alleged retirement with the words

"I know you guys are happy now"?

That says a WHOLE lot more about YOU then ANYONE else.

Good Luck Nick Nick

since apparently her brother is a pedophile

I guess she trying to build a strong family tradition.
