On October 1, 2024, Nicki Minaj shared a series of photos on Instagram from her son’s fourth birthday celebration, which took place at an indoor playground. The post highlighted a carousel of images featuring her son and her husband, Kenneth Petty. Amid the festivities, speculation arose among internet users that Minaj’s post was an attempt to rehabilitate her husband’s image, especially after a video emerged in August 2024 showing Kenneth being interrogated regarding a 1994 rape case.
Minaj also posted the same pictures on X with the caption:
“They used to be giving yall the #fakenews so loud & proud I thought a brain vessel was gon pop. You’d have to have a brain for that tho. #GagCityKansasCity T O N I G H T. “
In response to a tweet suggesting that only Nicki Minaj could transform her child’s birthday into a statement about a man, she countered with a lengthy message. This prompted a flurry of reactions on X from users commenting on her defense.
One user remarked regarding her extensive response:
“Sorry, I don’t care what anyone says, this isn’t normal. Nicki’s out here writing bs essays and projecting her insecurities onto other people. She’s lost it.”
“All this over a sentence. 10 words. She’s not okay,”an X user mentioned.
“Nobody reading that,”another user tweeted.
“Girl. .. this is a lot,”a netizen stated.
“Girl we not reading allat,”another user said.
Conversely, many of Nicki Minaj’s fans came to her defense, praising her for addressing the commenter directly.
“This was a superior and iconic drag,”an X user remarked.
“CLOCK THEM NICKI,”another user tweeted.
“Oh you ate them all the way up,”a netizen stated.
“You have no idea what anyone’s bday was like via a photo on social media”: Nicki Minaj responded to an X user
Shortly after an X user claimed that Nicki Minaj had turned her son’s birthday post into a conversation about her husband, the Tusa rapper took to X with a detailed tweet. In her response, she referred to the commenter as a “weak loser”and suggested that their criticism stemmed from envy due to their own “sad existence”and feelings of being unloved.
Minaj articulated several points in her reply, stating:
“There are 24 hours in one’s bday. So you have no idea what anyone’s bday was like via a photo on social media. That’s why yall were saying couple goals about many of those Instagram relationships & ended up looking dumb. Well yall BEEN looking dumb chi. The mirror told yall that way before I could’ve. ENTEEWAYS.”
She further elaborated that a snapshot only takes a moment to capture and post, leaving plenty of time for other birthday activities. The rapper criticized the user for making assumptions based on a single image.
In her next point, Nicki Minaj labeled the X user as “ugly,”commenting:
“Nothing in the tweet has to do with ANYONE’S bday. So ummmmm how’d you know? Oh right. OBSESSED WITH ONIKA!!!!! DING. DING. DING. Obsessed, ugly AND a VERY low IQ.”
As her response continued, Minaj mentioned her numerous achievements, insinuating that the X user’s obsession with her was due to her success.
