Nicki Minaj bragged about her United Nations apperance as a "MAGA flex" with a subtle jab at Jay-Z.
In a now-deleted X post, Nicki flipped Jay's "On to the Next One" lyrics while highlighting her recent speech at the United Nations and her growing ties to President Donald Trump.
“United Nations was a MAGA Flex. Trump on da text. Yall should be afraid of what I’m gon do next,” she wrote in an apparent reference to HOV's bar “Obama on the text / Y’all should be afraid of what I’m gon’ do next.”
The tweet, which joins a series of public shots that the rapper has taken at HOV, came after Nicki called for "urgent action" in response to the alleged persecution of Christians in Nigeria during a speech at the United Nations in New York.
Trump has repeatedly pushed claims that Christians are facing targeted attacks in Nigeria and threatened to go "guns a-blazing" into the country. The Nigerian government has strongly denied allegations that Christians are being systematically targeted because of their religion. Officials say all citizens, regardless of faith, are suffering from the extremist violence that has plagued regions of the country.
Nicki backed Trump's claims during her speech to world leaders on Tuesday (November 18), saying Christians are being “targeted, driven from their homes and killed" and living in fear “simply because of how they pray.” She thanked Trump and the administration for “prioritizing this issue” and said she was “grateful to be entrusted with an opportunity of this magnitude.”
“We don’t have to share the same beliefs in order to respect each other,” she said, adding that protecting vulnerable groups “is about uniting humanity.”
Ahead of last week's U.N. meeting, Ambassador Michael Waltz praised Nicki as “a principled individual who refuses to remain silent in the face of injustice.”
It's unclear when Nicki deleted her tweet bragging about her MAGA ties and jabbing at Jay-Z.
