Yoh, Ziyakhala for sure, in America right now, as Nicki Minaj is faced with a legal battle for her rants about Jay Z and his company Roc Nation.

On Thursday, 25 December 2025, it was alleged that the Anaconda hitmaker was slapped with a cease and desist order by Roc Nation, meaning that she has been banned from mentioning Jay Z, Beyoncé, and the company's name; otherwise, she will be liable for a financial lawsuit.

This Christmas surely wasn't the greatest Christmas for the rapper and singer, as she was also uninvited to the 2026 Met Gala, which is cochaired by Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour.

@TWEETORACLE said:

"It doesn’t change the fact that she is the Best female Hip hop star of all time. It’s hard to argue with facts. What she has achieved in terms of record sales would be unmatched by any female for a long time to come. She is a GOAT 🐐 already. Give her her flowers."

@GuuGod777 wrote:

"She knows way too much. Don't be surprised if she comes up missing."

@prosper_xau commented:

"This whole situation just feels sad more than anything. Nicki is undeniably one of the most influential artists of her generation, and seeing things escalate to legal threats instead of dialogue says a lot about how messy fame and power dynamics can get."

@Markosonke1 responded:

"Imagine being banned from the Met Gala and also banned from speaking about the hosts. Nicki really got a Christmas gift wrapped in legal stationery. Silence is golden… and apparently legally required."

@Oscar_Dyne replied:

"Being legally restricted from mentioning certain names means this is very serious this has become. At that point, it’s no longer about music beef or social media back-and-forth. It’s about protecting brands, reputations, and business interests worth billions. Companies like Roc Nation move with strategy, not sentiment."
