Recently, the feud between rap icons Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion has captured significant attention online. The drama kicked off when Megan dropped her new track Hiss, featuring the line: “They don’t hate Megan, they hate the Megan Law.” This line references a federal law designed to protect the public from sex offenders. Many believe Megan’s lyrics were subtly targeting Kenneth Petty, Nicki Minaj’s husband, who was convicted and fined for failing to register his criminal record with local authorities.
In true Nicki Minaj fashion, the queen of rap did not take this lightly. She fired back with hundreds of tweets on X and announced the release of a diss track titled Big Foot, aimed directly at Megan. In the song, Nicki throws personal jabs, accusing Megan of lying about her past: “You said you got shot in the foot, but where’s the scar?” Nicki even went further, declaring that she had more diss tracks ready if Megan didn’t issue a formal apology within 24 hours.
While Nicki was fiercely battling on social media, Megan responded in a more subtle way. She posted a picture of red spider lilies, a symbolic flower in the anime Tokyo Ghoul, hinting at her readiness to “fight” her former ally. Fans interpreted the post as a clever, indirect response to Nicki’s aggressive tweets. Megan also seemed unbothered, enjoying time with friends despite Nicki’s public display of frustration.
Their falling out has left many fans disappointed. Once close collaborators on the hit song Hot Girl Summer in 2019, Nicki and Megan’s friendship deteriorated after Megan teamed up with Cardi B, Nicki’s long-time rival, in 2020. This shift caused speculation of tension, and by 2022, the two stars unfollowed each other on social media, signaling a growing divide. Now, the feud has escalated to public rap battles and fiery online exchanges, leaving the music world wondering what’s next.
