Rapper Nicki Minaj has refuted claims that she dissed Beyoncé in a recent tweet.
Minaj faced backlash after posting “Robot on timing” without mentioning anyone specifically. Fans speculated it was aimed at Beyoncé, given Minaj’s recent disagreement with Jay-Z over Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show headliner spot.
Minaj clarified via comments, stating, “This is an absolute lie.”
The controversy follows Minaj’s expressed disappointment with Jay-Z’s decision to choose Kendrick Lamar over Lil Wayne for the Super Bowl halftime show.
