Nicki releases ‘Red Ruby Da Sleeze’! https://nicki-minaj.org/12554-2/ Fri, 03 Mar 2023 03:45:52 +0000 https://nicki-minaj.org/?p=12554 Nicki Minaj is back with her first single of 2023, “Red Ruby Da Sleeze,” which she released on Friday (March 3) via Young Money Entertainment and Republic Records.

Red Ruby Da Sleeze, Chinese on my sleeve/ These wannabe Chun-Li’s, anyway, nǐ hǎo/ Who the f— told bi—es they was me now?” she raps over Lumidee‘s 2003 smash “Never Leave You (Uh Oooh, Uh Oooh)” while also referencing her 2018 Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hit and alter-ego “Chun-Li.”

“Red Ruby Da Sleeze” marks her first solo single since 2022’s “Super Freaky Girl,” which became the rapper’s career-first solo Hot 100 No. 1 hit and the first No. 1 debut for a hip-hop song by a female artist with no accompanying acts since Lauryn Hill’s “Doo Wop (That Thing)” in 1998.

Minaj was recently ranked No. 7 on Billboard and Vibe‘s 50 Greatest Rappers of All Time list and the No. 10 on Billboard‘s Greatest Pop Stars of 2022 list. She also emerged as the winner of Billboard‘s inaugural Power Artist 2022 – Fan Choice bracket, where fans voted from the 32 artists who made the biggest impact on Billboard‘s 2022 year-end charts.

Nicki and Kenneth Petty Spark Split Rumors https://nicki-minaj.org/12557-2/ Tue, 28 Feb 2023 03:48:25 +0000 https://nicki-minaj.org/?p=12557 Nicki Minaj and husband Kenneth Petty are making headlines once again. However, this time it’s about a potential split.

Over the past few days, certain corners of the internet have been speculating that the “Super Freaky Girl” star finally ended things with Petty after online gossip blog MediaTakeOut alleged that the two were living apart, with online records showing that Minaj recently purchased a brand new $19.5 million mansion in Hidden Hills, California. Meanwhile, the California sexual offender registry lists a different address for her husband of three years, which is across the 101 Freeway in the city of Thousand Oaks.

The tabloid then went on to quote a source who claimed that their martial strife stems from public scrutiny surrounding Petty’s 1995 conviction for first-degree attempted rape in the state of New York, for which he previously served four years in prison. Throughout all this though, Minaj has not only continued to maintain her husband’s innocence, but has also allegedly tried to harass and intimidate the victim, Jennifer Hough, as she’s since filed another lawsuit against Petty for sexual assault and battery in relation to the incident, which happened in 1994 when they were both teenagers.

A few days later, TikToker @newdaynewtea also posted a blind item from someone who alleged that there’s “a lot of noise” about Minaj dumping Petty “because he didn’t travel with her overseas” to her native Trinidad and Tobago for the island’s annual Carnival celebration. But while the so-called source said that Petty isn’t allowed to leave the US after being sentenced to one year of home confinement due to his failure to register as a sex offender in California, they went on to claim that “there have been a series of strippers headed to his house while she has been gone.”

Even so, Minaj’s fans aren’t sure what to make of the rumors, as some are celebrating their rumored breakup while others believe it’s all baseless speculation, pointing out that the Grammy winner was seen wearing her ring in Trinidad and that Petty isn’t allowed to travel. Minaj and Petty have yet to comment on the split speculation.

FIFA Sound – the game-changing initiative that combines the universal languages of music and football – collaborated with Universal Arabic Music and Republic Records on the release.

Tukoh Taka, which is the latest addition to the tournament’s multi-song Official Soundtrack, will capture the FIFA World Cup spirit by pulsing through the heart of football’s greatest global celebration.

From the FIFA Fan Festivals taking place in Doha’s Al Bidda Park and worldwide to the buzz of the stadiums across Qatar, Tukoh Taka will set the tone for an unforgettable experience by amplifying three of music’s most iconic voices.

Trinidadian-born Nicki Minaj, who is based in the USA, is known as the ‘queen of hip hop’ after becoming the best-selling female rapper of all time. Maluma is a globally acclaimed Latin Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter from Colombia, while Lebanese singer Myriam Fares has tens of millions of followers across the Middle East and worldwide.

With the trio teaming up for an anthem that spans regions and genres to reflect the global reach of the FIFA World Cup and the inclusivity of the game, fans will associate playing Tukoh Taka with momentous moments during a true football festival.

Maluma and Myriam Fares will perform on the opening evening of Doha’s FIFA Fan Festival, which will start to welcome fans from 16:00 local time on Saturday 19 November, the day before the action kicks off on the pitch with Qatar v Ecuador.

Maluma says: “I am so happy to be part of this World Cup single! I always dreamt of an opportunity like this. Representing Latin music on this global track alongside amazing artists that sing in English and Arabic takes our culture to another level.”

Myriam Fares adds: “It has been an honour to participate in the composition, arrangement and choreography of Tukoh Taka, in addition to working alongside two of my favourite international artists, Nicki Minaj and Maluma. I am passionate about this song and I truly hope that Tukoh Taka will take the culture of the region, and Arabian music, to the whole world.”

Music executive Wassim ‘Sal’ Slaiby, founder and CEO of Universal Arabic Music, says: “The goal of Tukoh Taka was to make a record that celebrates unity, culture and diversity on a global level. A special thank you to Nicki Minaj, Maluma and Myriam Fares for bringing their identity, culture and talent to this song. YALLA SAWAH!”
