AceShowbiz - Nicki Minaj has had something to say about Spotify. The "Moment 4 Life" hitmaker appeared to have come to the music streaming platform's defense after fellow rapper Drake filed a lawsuit against it.

On Monday, December 2, the female hip-hop artist made use of her X, formerly known as Twitter, account to share her opinions on Spotify. In a tweet, she simply wrote, "Spotify ain't gotta lie." She went on to say in a follow-up tweet, "Show me the data."

After sharing the tweets, Nicki received support from social media users, including her fans who are famously known as Barbz. Taking to Instagram, one in particular wrote, "The songs are 10 years old! Name one female rapper who's songs from 10 years ago are on the bbh100, I'll wait!! She was just announced as the highest selling female rapper in 2024!! I'm sure she's doing just fine."

Another argued, "Even though she just recently dropped a remixed album, none of the songs charted. And blogs are posting about how Kendrick and Drake are neck and neck in the tops spots on billboard. I think she's saying even though she doesn't make billboard charts her fans still stream her music."

Meanwhile, others mentioned Drake, who is also known as Drizzy, and his nemesis Kendrick Lamar. One of them penned, "Well, she needs to tell drake that. Spotify numbers DON'T LIE," adding a slew of laughing face emojis. Similarly, another stated, "well your friend says spotify is lying for kendrick."

The tweets came around one week after Drake filed a lawsuit against Universal Music Group and Spotify, accusing the two of wrongdoing during his feud against Kendrick. The "One Dance" hitmaker alleged that UMG engaged in a "scheme" to manipulate the success of "Not Like Us".

The Canadian rapper's petition claimed that UMG used bots, payola and other deceptive practices to boost the song's streaming numbers on platforms like Spotify. In response, UMG issued a statement to Variety, calling the Canadian hip-hop artist's accusations "offensive."
