American rapper Nicki Minaj has publicly alleged that hip-hop mogul Jay-Z owes her between $100 million and $200 million, reigniting past claims related to business dealings between the two artists.
In a post shared on her verified X (formerly Twitter) account, Minaj called on Jay-Z to settle what she referred to as a “karmic debt,” claiming that the outstanding amount continues to accrue interest.
“We’ve calculated about 100–200MM so far. #JayZ call me to settle this karmic debt. It’s only collecting more interest,” she wrote.
“You still in my Top 5 tho. Let’s get it nigga.”
While Minaj did not provide specific details, the comments appear to reference long-standing grievances regarding her alleged exclusion from Tidal equity payouts. Tidal, the streaming platform once owned by Jay-Z, was sold in 2021, and Minaj has previously insinuated that she was denied a fair share from the deal.
The latest public remark marks a continuation of subtle and direct criticisms the Anaconda hitmaker has made toward the billionaire entrepreneur and Roc Nation founder in recent years.
As of the time of publishing, Jay-Z has not issued any public response to Minaj’s claim, and no official comment has been released by his team.
