Nicki Minaj is silencing critics who questioned her finances by flexing her luxury lifestyle and reigniting her feud with Jay-Z.

The rapper took to X (formerly Twitter) to refute claims that she’s broke, following speculation surrounding her recent online attacks aimed at Jay-Z and Roc Nation.

Minaj claimed she’s in the process of purchasing a third mansion in just two years, adding that she’s been buying property for others for over 15 years. “Catch up ugly,” she wrote to her critics. She also revealed that she recently acquired a pink private jet, adding, “Entry is for fly Barbz only.”

This online flex came after Minaj accused Jay-Z of owing her $200 million from the 2021 sale of Tidal to Square Inc., fueling rumors that financial issues prompted her outbursts. But Minaj insists she's far from struggling. “If tmrw I wake up & want maybe 20-30MM, all I have to do is hand in my album… Then I’d tour again & gross over a hunnit,” she wrote.

Minaj’s comments come as Jay-Z appeared unbothered, attending the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final in New Jersey and posting photos with Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior. Fans online pointed out the contrast, with one user commenting, “Mr. Carter is living his best life while Nicki is having a meltdown.”

Despite the backlash, Minaj continues to double down, asserting her dominance in the industry and her financial independence. As her Pink Friday 2 World Tour continues to generate buzz, Minaj’s latest posts serve as both a clapback and a power move.
