Nicki Minaj Says She’s ‘Not Going to Put Out’ Her New Album Anymore: ‘Bye, Barbz’
Nicki Minaj blames Roc Nation and Jay-Z for halting her sixth album after rejecting their offers despite prior release plans for March 27, 2026.
- Nicki Minaj announced on X early Wednesday that she is nixing plans for her sixth studio album, which had been set for next March.
- After a public spat with Roc Nation, Minaj said Roc Nation begged her for an album and tour, and she declined, targeting Jay-Z and Desiree Perez.
- Fans reacted strongly, with some urging Minaj to take a break after claims she is owed between $100 to 200 million over her Tidal stake and the platform's $297 million sale, according to observers.
- Amid the social-media dispute, a security guard asked to force sale of Nicki Minaj's California home to collect $503,000, and she denied the claims through a lawyer while facing a separate lawsuit from Brandon Garrett.
- Minaj's independent status— not signed to Roc Nation— pairs with her album Pink Friday 2 debuting at the Billboard 200 with 228,000 units, highlighting her commercial strength.
