Nicki Minaj recently took to her X (formerly Twitter) account to share her thoughts on the National Football League's decision to choose Kendrick Lamar as the headliner for the 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show scheduled in New Orleans.
In her post, Minaj expressed that Lil Wayne, her mentor and the boss of Young Money Records, would have been a more fitting choice due to his massive influence on hip hop and his deep connection to New Orleans.
Minaj's opinion sparked a wave of reactions, including criticism from some who felt Lil Wayne was not suitable for the show.
Responding to one such critic, Minaj humorously adopted a Nigerian persona, stating, "Nigeria won't kill her," and quoting Ayra Starr's popular line, "Sabi Girl no dey too like talk." She added, "LMFAOOOO. Nigeria will not end me o! Sabi girl no Dey too like talk My words take the express elevator to the most high chi. I will show them pepper."
This post garnered huge attention, particularly for its use of Nigerian Pidgin English, leading many to question how Minaj became familiar with the language. The rapper revealed that she understands Pidgin English and is conversant with Nigerian vernacular, further showcasing her connection to Nigerian culture.
