Nicki Minaj is one of the most popular rappers and actors around the world. The singer is known for her hit music. Recently, Doja Cat released a new song titled, Say So that also features Nicki Minaj in a rap. But seems like Nicki’s lyrics in this song have sent fans into a tizzy, especially the LGBTQ+ group.

Nicki Minaj could be heard rapping about her current sexuality in the recent song. Five years ago, Nicki Minaj opened up about calling herself bisexual. In the rap, she could be heard saying, "I use to be bi now I'm hetero."

As per reports, this line of the singer has upset the LGBTQ+ community. Nicki was later accused saying that she was using the community for power. Netizens went on to give a mixed reaction on the same. 

It is also reported that many LGBTQ+ activists have slammed Nicki Minaj on social media. They also urged everyone to stop supporting ‘frauds,’ like Nicki Minaj and start calling them out. However, Nicki Minaj has not yet replied to the online criticism she is receiving on the same.

As per reports, her ‘sexuality revelation’ does not seem like the only controversial lyrics on the new song. It was also reported that Nicki Minaj sparked speculation about her talking bad about Beyonce in the outro of the retro-grooving pop song.

Netizens are reportedly guessing that Nicki Minaj is taking a dig at Beyonce. As per reports, some others also suggested that it could also be Megan Thee Stallion.
