Nicki Minaj's 'Beez in the Trap' Sparks Drama Between Rival DJs


According to Hot 97's Funkmaster Flex, he recently stole an email from DJ Clue. The email contained a file of Nicki Minaj's latest song "Beez In The Trap," which was set to be played on Clue's radio show. Instead, Flex dropped a bomb on the track while also speaking about why he decided to hack Clue's account.


"Let me talk to you once more. You was talking yesterday [like] you want to go. Make sure you're ready to go-pause button-'cause you lost your exclusive tonight. You guys been tweeting about it all day and I took it. Okay? Now, don't make me have to talk to you like this again [laughing], you clown. I'm so built for this. Listen to me June-June, and you listen to me good. I ain't hold this crown for so many years for some box-head cornball to get a record tonight that you thought you was gonna get. Now, you just shut up."


Whatever the order of events, Nicki's "Beez in the Trap" single clearly came out on top. The '80s-inspired track is a departure from "Right by My Side," the R&B duet that Minaj and Chris Brown released earlier on Tuesday. Instead, "Beez" finds the Harajuku Barbie once again taking aim at unnamed rap chicks. "Bitches ain't sh-- and they ain't sayin' nothin'," she boasts on over a sparse drum track. Underground favorite 2 Chainz doesn't compromise a thing spitting alongside the multiplatinum rapper. He drops a charismatic 16-bar verse where he goes on about his Lexus LS 450, True Religion jeans and his pimp ways.


With the newly released Roman Reloaded tracks, Nicki seems to be striking a balance between melodic pop tracks ("Starships," "Right By My Side") and the rap fare that she came into the game with ("Stupid Hoe," "Roman Reloaded").


"April 3 is gonna be a doozy. It's gonna be crazy," Nicki promised when MTV News caught up with her at the NBA All-Star Game in February. "It's gonna be important for just hip-hop culture and pop culture. It's gonna be very big."
