Nicki Minaj<\/a><\/strong> isn’t holding back on Twitter<\/a>, especially after revealing she’s been “bullied” by the Recording Academy and has kept “quiet for 7 years out of fear.”<\/p>\n

The\u00a0“Chun-Li”\u00a0rapper\u00a0tweeted she\u00a0“pissed off”\u00a0Ken Ehrlich<\/strong>, the Grammys Executive Producer.<\/p>\n

If his name sounds familiar, it’s because Ariana Grande<\/a><\/strong> recently called him out on Twitter<\/a> when she explained she\u00a0was “stifled” by him and therefore wouldn’t\u00a0perform at\u00a0the 2019\u00a0Grammys<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It seems Minaj is taking a cue from the “7 Rings” star’s book, because\u00a0she’s ready to speak her truth.<\/p>\n

“I pissed off the same man Ariana\u00a0just called out for lying. Grammy producer KEN,” the 36-year-old rapper wrote in her post.<\/p>\n

“I was bullied into staying quiet for 7 years out of fear. But I’ll tell my fans the REAL on the next episode of #QueenRadio they deserve the truth.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Closing her statement, she said, “Also, CONGRATS to everyone who won last night.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

I pissed off the same man Ariana just called out for lying. Grammy producer KEN. I was bullied into staying quiet for 7 years out of fear. But I\u2019ll tell my fans the REAL on the next episode of #QueenRadio<\/a> they deserve the truth.<\/p>\n

Also, CONGRATS to everyone who won last night. ?? https:\/\/t.co\/YjmoIOPt6o<\/a><\/p>\n

Earlier today, the “Chun-Li”\u00a0star\u00a0shared a screenshot of\u00a0BET’s\u00a0controversial\u00a0tweet<\/a>\u00a0about\u00a0Cardi B<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0taking home the Best Rap Album award<\/a> at the 2019 Grammys.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The publication’s tweet read,\u00a0“Meanwhile Nicki Minaj is being dragged by her lacefront.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Not long after, Minaj issued a statement<\/a>, saying she and “Young Money will no longer be apart of the BET Experience or award show.”<\/p>\n

The concert series is\u00a0happening late\u00a0June and the awards show is\u00a0scheduled\u00a0days after. Both Cardi and Nicki were set to co-headline the concert.<\/p>\n

Fans immediately called out BET for\u00a0the insensitive post.<\/p>\n

One fan wrote<\/a>, “Nicki Minaj didn’t revive a whole genre, write her own raps for over a decade, & bring y’all ghetto ass awards show viewers for y’all to disrespect and bully her like this.”<\/p>\n

Another fan tweeted<\/a>, “Nicki Minaj has been at the top of her game for way too long to not have had a Grammy. I don’t know what white man from the boards she pissed off.” This is what sparked Minaj’s Grammys post.<\/p>\n

Although, she has yet to reveal “the truth.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
