Speaker 1 (00:02):
Jewist.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I'm a homegirl that knows a little bit about everything
and everybody.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
You don't know if you don't lie about that, right,
la Hey, y'all, what's up.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
It's Lauren l Rosa and this is the latest with
Laura l Rosa, or it might be the latest was
born Lauren today because Nicki Minaj has decided that, you know,
she had a few things to get off her chest,
and apparently Nikki thinks.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
You know, I'm boring for the boring girls.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
So not only is this your a home of all
things pop culture, entertainment and all of the exclusives, but
we got some things to talk about because Nicki Minaj
had some things to say. So now this is your
home for all of the barbs to tune on in
and take a listen, because I know y'all out there listening. Hey, y'all,
let's get into it. So Nicki Minaj got on her
(00:48):
ex account and you know, she tweeted a ton of things,
Like some of the things were so random. I don't
know if you've ever had like a family member that
was like or even a friend that was dealing with
a guy or girl the relationship was horrible for them. Right, Like,
I mean, the relationship is just ripping them the shreds,
but they just keep going back, keep trying to figure
it out, to the point where they ain't even calling
(01:09):
you for advice no more because they don't want to
hear the honest truth. But you feel so bad you're
just watching it. You're like, oh, things are supposed to
go better for them. I was watching Nicki minajro X
last night, and that is exactly how I felt.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
This is Nicki.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Minaj, this is you know, the Queen of rat self titled,
but also like, you know, she worked hard for that
and she's here and the things that she's tweeted, like
she tweeted that she believes that jay Z and Beyonce
stole a photo polls from her and her husband Kenneth,
and of course she's doing And first of all, I
(01:44):
think that was just like like where is her mind?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Like what's happening right now?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
But then you know, she goes into all of the
Barney be things and y'all know all the back and
forth that her and Cardi have been doing. But she
begins to call out some of the media outlets and
she does take shots at Carti's kids, I'll read a
feud those use, but I'm not gonna get even into
too much detail about that. But if you guys have
been seeing Nicki Minaj and Cardi B and people doing
(02:09):
a breakdown of what their beef is and why there
is beef on your timeline, it's because the X accounts
have been xing. Okay, both of them have been on
Twitter using all characters all right, one hundred and fifty
or more?
Speaker 1 (02:22):
What is the character count on X now?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
I think it's about like maybe like two fifty or
something like that, whatever it is, Okay, the girls are
giving paragraph essay, Okay, so born Lauren is here reporting
a live from the sidelines and tell you this shit
is sad. It's very sad to watch because Nicki Minaj
to me has always been the girl who can hang,
the girl who could you know?
Speaker 1 (02:44):
She she can get with the guys.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
The raps is rapping, the penance, penning, She's doing what
she needs to do. Trailblazer, pink print. And I'm not
a barb like at all. I honestly think people who
subscribe to the barb language are delusional, very delusional people,
especially if you're over at the age of like twenty
one doing it Like I got barbs in my mention
right now that are fifty five plus and I'm like, yo,
(03:07):
being a barb aarp is crazy, like a barb receiving
Social Security like using your government received money because you
have hit a certain age and a certain level of
you can't even remember your kids' names. To be a
barb and go see Nicki Minaj is insane. But one
thing I will say, Nicki Minaj is such an icon
(03:27):
and such a legend. I admire the fact that she
has people all over the world. I mean, I got
people cussing me out in French Spanish tongues like y'all
ain't chilling whatsoever. They didn't call me a tabhole. I
thought that was a good one. Now the tabhole, I'm like,
I see what y'all did there. I thought that was
(03:48):
a good one.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
All right.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
They go hard for her. I've said this about Taylor,
Swift and Beyonce. I really respect people in any industry,
but especially in the creative industry who can gat who
can get people together, make them think all on one accord,
make them buy things, make them show up. That is
a art in itself. That not everybody can do. But
(04:10):
the issue is, you know, just a just a very
brief summary and background.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
If you are seeing all of this.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Nicki Minaj and Cardi B stuff on your timeline, you're
a bit confused or you're.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Just tie it.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
To put this all in a very short summation, Cardi
B has joined that group of women that I'm talking
about that is able to use her art, to be
able to galvanize, to make people listen to her music,
care about her thoughts, go buy her products, show up
to album signings and things all over the world and concerts,
and Nicki Minaj is upset about that. That's what it
(04:44):
boils down to. That's what it is always boiled down to,
and it's sad to watch. I remember when Cardi B
and Nicki Minaj had that fight at Fashion Week, and
I'm gonna get to the tweet where she coming for us.
I'm gonna get there, but I remember the night that
Nicki Minaj. Yeah, I'm gonna get there, but I gotta
be a little bit boring before I get there. Okay,
you know I'm gonna lean into this born Lauren thing.
(05:05):
I dressed like a librarian today for a reason.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
All right.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
They had to fight during fashion week, and I remember
getting a phone call middle of the night and the
phone call I received on the other end of the line,
they're screaming, They're like, Nicki Minachi, Cardi b just got
into it and you know it, it was all it was.
It was mayhem and I could sense that it was
hectic just from being on the phone, and I'm all
(05:28):
the way in La. My first thought was, first of all,
these two women are the biggest celebrities, some of the
biggest celebrities in the world right now. What the hell
are they doing and why? That was the first thing
I thought. The second thing I thought was why is
(05:49):
Nicki Minaj, Like, like, why is Nicki Minaj? Are you
even allowing yourself to get to this point with any
new artist Beyonce? What never ever a Diana Ross. Let's
talk about like celebrity and elegance and big brands and
big business in Trailblazers, Diana Ross would never You can't
(06:15):
even speak to her nice because you can't speak to
her at all. You got to go through her people
unless she allows you to. My point is is that
at one point I held Nicki Minaj to a very
high regard because of everything she's been able to accomplish
in her career.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I know it's not easy for women to rap, and
a lot of it too.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
I've always said, and I've said this on The Breakfast Club,
how much of what we see Nicki Minaj do in
response to women and rapper and just not even just women,
because you know she calling out rock Nation and a
bunch of other things and other people to just things
in rap in general, right, or things that she goes
through in her life. How much of what we're seeing
(06:53):
and how we're seeing her respond to that have to
do with what she's been through. She's had to fight
very hard, she said, to you know, tuck her tail
and just take some things.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
A lot I'm.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Assuming as a female and rap, especially because she opened
up so much for so many other people. She came
after some of the great too. She's also had issues
with Kim you know, but we cannot act like Niggi
Minaj and everything that she has done, the albums, the sales,
the tours, the you know, all of that. We can't
(07:26):
act like that, and it happen. But I think the
reason why people love to talk to her as if
she's just anybody is, because that's she got her acting
like it and it's not just her. I feel the
same way with Cardi too. I think there is a
certain level of y'all get into this. It's the rap beef, right,
But when it starts getting to a point where you
(07:47):
might be, y'all, y'all messing up the coin in all
of the trailblazer, big brand, big business image and not
even just image, because it's not even just about perception.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Y'all have really done this. When it gets to the
point where y'all are messing.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
That up, I'm like, all right now, like let's take
a lesson from the greats, even if they got busy. Baby,
it's a folk tale. We hear about it. It's a
different time now. Everything is documented, y'all. They're on X
with all this back and forth. So Nicki Minaj sweets
yesterday at Cardi B she mentions a culture again and
(08:22):
in the tweet, you know, of course anything coming at cultures,
you already know how that's going to be received from Cardi,
like whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
And I want to also say too that.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I don't think here in this situation like people are
picking side, like I'm team Nikki, I'm team Carty. I
don't have a team anything. I'm team this looks dumb
as hell. And here's who's looking the dumbest. And here's
what's dumb on both sides. And I'm gonna say it,
like I think, for Cardi, if first of all, you
come from my kid, it's up. So I unders then
(09:00):
how Cardi feels.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I don't have a kid.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
But I mean, I could only imagine because I felt
that way about my niece and she's not even my child, right,
So I get that.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
And I think that there's a certain level of.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Like I'm not even on the whole, like women shit
of power each other and blah blah blah. Because I've
said it, and I've said it here on this podcast.
Sometimes you just don't like it and it's it's just
how the cards fall. But I do think that there's
a decorum even if y'all gonna get busy, even if
you're gonna trade shots on songs, talk crazy about each
(09:30):
other all that. I think it gets to a certain
point where it's like, but please remember who y'all are,
like that that's my whole thing with this, right, So
Nicki Minaj tweated.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
It's a lot of tweets. Okay, I'm only gonna read
a few. This is the same one. This is the
same one.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
I'm looking at the Barney photos right now that made
me laugh. This is the same one I read this
morning on the Breakfast Club too. That kicked it all
back off. So Nicki Minaj got back on X after
they were feuding. They Cardi B and mnage refuting yesterday
on X and she said, why can't I find it? Now?
Speaker 1 (10:02):
I know it ain't deleted.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
It. Okay, here we are, dear Culture vulture. Your mom
is pregnant with another monkey to add to her litter.
The gag is she was jealous of a little baby
boy simply because his hair was longer than all four
of you ball monkeys put together. Now, that is a
tweet to Cardi B, an Offset's daughter Culture. Of course,
(10:25):
Cardi replies back, and you know, there's the back and forth,
and then they continued.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Now it started.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
There was one point where Cardi B says that, uh,
Cardi B says that Nicki Minaja's son, Papa Bear that
his favorite color is five, and that's why Nicki Minaj's mad.
She's been calling Nicki Minaja's son, slow this whole argument. Yesterday, okay, yesterday,
Carti said that Nicki Minaja's son is non verbal and
(10:56):
the only thing he knows how to do is.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Bang on spoon is bang spoons.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
If you say my kid's favorite color is five, I
gotta see you now, like now, I like, And that's
what I mean by I get it. I totally understand that.
It gets to a certain point where it's like, all right,
what's up? All right, okay, cool, what's up? But Cardi
B is pregnant number one, Nicki Minaj is Nicki Minaj.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
They're never Nicki Minaj and Cardi.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
B realistically will never ever see each other. Like it's
not like y'all just randomly be like hanging outside, y'all
gonna run into each other somewhere or like in the clubs,
in the streets.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
I know, Nikki, I mean, n Nikki.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I know Cardi goes out like Cardi B and the
ship clubs and she'd be running around or whatever. But
even that, it's like there's security, there's hella cameras. Y'all
are two of the biggest celebrities in the world. That's
not gonna happen. So at this point, now they're the
show that's happening, where y'all are coming for each other's
kids and talking about all these personal things. The only
people watching is them people that are sitting behind the
(11:58):
checks of the brands and the business this is and
all of that. I wouldn't even play them games with
my coin because one thing that's not gonna happen to
kie Minaj. When people decide and businesses decide, and other
artists decide that they want to distance themselves from you.
The barbs in their social Security check them o G barbs,
them barbs that you know still got China closets in
(12:19):
their kitchens and smoke Newport pack one hundreds. That's in
my commons screaming right now with the sink breath.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
They're not going to.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Be able to support the lifestyle you're used to living.
That lifestyle is funded by the fact that you are
a global superstar.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
What are you doing?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
There's obviously something more here at play, whatever that is.
I hope that people around you are seeing this because
it almost gives like a like a spiral out, like
a downspiral up sorts like almost like what we were
seeing like what we were seeing Kanye West do online,
and Carti said it in her tweets, like, it's to
(12:57):
the point now where I just got.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
To see you. But again, when are y'all gonna see
each other?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
That's not gonna happen, not like y'all would have to
plan that, like it would have to be so planned
that it's not even worth the meetup because y'all are
who y'all are. But she said it, I'm not gonna
let you mess up my money. Smart choice, Cardi, because
at this point, whatever is happening, it's so sad to
(13:22):
watch because I don't care what nobody says. Whether you're
Cardi be, I don't care what anybody says. There's no
At some point in Nicki Minaja's career, she's inspired women
across the board. I'm not a rapper. I feel like
I should have a mixtape, though I definitely think yo.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
If I dropped a.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Mixtape called Boring Lauren, y'all would y'all listen to that mixtape?
I do like four tracks. I would do like four
because I'm so boring. That's all y'all probably gonna get
thro anyway, maybe too. My whole point is though that
at some point in every woman's life that is a
(13:59):
fan of culture, especially if you're a fan of hip hop,
there has been something that you have taken from Nicki
Minaj as inspiration. We talk a lot about the bad
things with her because she's always just doing the stuff.
Like Niki is very outspoken, she's very loud. The beefs
be beefing, like you know what I'm saying. And I
don't want people to take this as like I feel
like Cardi B and Nicki Minaj can't have an issue
(14:21):
with each other because when the guy rappers do it.
We talked about Drake and Kendrick Lamar Forever and they
went to hell with each other as well, and we
let them rock because it was in music. My point is, though,
is that and I say this with Drake too. You
can't take away what Drake has done. You can't take
away to what Nicki Minaj has done. But it is
(14:42):
sad to watch. It is very sad to watch knowing
how I mean, at least how I think of Nicki
Minaj and what I think of what she's been able
to accomplish in her career and break through and all that.
To see her online giving it up the way she
giving it up right now.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
I'm very confused.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I don't know what's happening, and it's scary to watch,
if I'm being honest with you, like I'm looking at
it like I don't ever want to end up like this,
like I don't ever want to be I don't know
what is the cause of this. You know, there's been
a ton of different reasons why people think this is
happening that is being reported, I know, you know, even
Cardi and throwing insults Nicki Minaj's way, has you know,
mentioned what she thinks is the cause of this as
(15:22):
well too. Whatever it is, I don't want to end
up here because what it screams is that.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
I don't know. It's just miserable. It's miserable, it's confusing.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
It's sad, it's childish, it's very insecure. And that is
not the Nicki Minaj that moved to Atlanta and then
took over the rap game. That Nicki Minaj was busting
down doors, not giving two shits about what anybody had
to say about her.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
All of this because.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Nicki Minaj thought that Cardi B shaded her on an album.
Not Gonna hold y'all. I thought Cardi got off a
line or two about Nikki as well, But even if
she did, so what.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Get it?
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Like, Nicki Minaj is one of the greatest female rappers.
Debate who you want to debate. She's there, Let's have
the conversation about it. Like she is, all right, So
she threw line, you way throw one back, y'all talking
about babies and kids, and I'm like, Yo, this is
(16:32):
insane and it's so crazy to me too. I think
even the stuff when Nicki Minaj is tweeting about jay Z,
It's like she's tweeting about jay Z and rock Nation,
but she don't touch Queen Bee. But I even with that,
I think about that, and I'm like, I know that
that relationship with Beyonce meant a lot to Nicki Minaj
at one point. Being able to do shows with Beyonce
meant a lot to Nicki Minaj at one point. Where
(16:54):
do you think that relationship comes back into play Nikki
at this point? Like how like that's that woman's husband.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
What do you think?
Speaker 2 (17:04):
It's just there's so much on the line here for
both ladies, So it is sad to watch something as
small as she might have talked about me on a
song be the root issue of all of this back
and forth to the point where now it's like, all right, y'all,
let me get to the sweet. So Nicki min I
tweeted and a bunch of outlets. She tweeted at Billboard
(17:26):
she said their time is done. She tweeted to Charleston
Harvey orra at TMZ said.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Their time is done.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And then she tweeted to the Breakfast Club and she said, Charlemagne,
did you put that bleaching cream on your dick too?
She tagged the President of the United States and told
him lock them all up. Imagine if you called yourself
Trump the god oh bitch, lock up born Laurence. She
(17:56):
spelled my name la u r e n. My name
is spelled l oh r e and it pisses me
off when people spell my name wrong.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
But that was my only issue with it.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I'm like, I mean, anybody really gonna lock me up? Like?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Did nothing, Nikki?
Speaker 2 (18:10):
All I did was read to tweet. You tweeted like
my bad, so sad, Like I don't know what you
want me to do. I mean, stop tweeting, I'll stop reading.
Oh dang, I'm dressed like I belong in doctor Seus's
and now I'm rhyming. The barbers are gonna have a
fiel day with that one too, y'all. Are y'all gonna
eat me up? I can already I'm green eggs and ham.
(18:31):
I can already see it in the comments. Yup, go ahead, Barbes,
go off. Yeah, So Born Lauren.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
That is me.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
I'm here, I'm being born Borden alive and Jess with
the test to Cole's too. They're very nasty people. Queens
niggas run these niggas, and I guess the queens people
she's talking about or something is envy. I don't know, man,
I don't know, but here's what I will say. First
of all, stop tweeting, stop tweeting, I'll stop reading. I
(19:02):
also mentioned too, the Born Lauren conversation was a conversation
back in twenty twenty three when the world first met
me on the Breakfast Club. So that means Nicki Minaj
has been paying attention for some time. And I am
truly honored. Y'all know I'm doing this space. I don't
act like I'm not truly honored that you have tuned
in and that I've kept you tuned in all of
(19:24):
this time, because what people don't think much about is,
you know, Born Lauren is anchoring conversations and choosing how
we discuss things on that platform, and you have been
tuned into every single conversation. Even though this is the
first time you've said something directly, I know it has
grinded your gears, Missmanaja, and I'll be able to say
anything any other time because there's been several times where
(19:45):
we've talked about you. In some of those conversations, I've
actually defended you. Not that I care to have to
defend you, nor is that my job. My job is
to be born, because that is obviously what keeps you
coming back. I appreciate the tune in the bar welcome,
please follow me totally fine if you want to, you know,
spark in the comments, do what it is that you
guys do. But all I will ask at this point
(20:08):
is that both women, Nicki Minaj and Cardi B I
think it's just done. I think it's over. Y'all got
JT and Santana and you know the whole that whole
click down, spiraling over this YO. Last night X was
looking like twenty fourteen Twitter was lit last night. I
think it's been a long time since I pulled up
(20:30):
the club Twitter and was like, Yo, I'm here, I'm parked,
I'm parlaying in the parking line. I ain't going nowhere,
but I was there, and I guess y'a always said, well,
I mean, you're telling them to stop, but you tuning in.
It's my job. I'm not just boring Lauren. I'm also
in your business Lauren too. Nicki Minaja says she has
an album dropping on March twenty seven, twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Born Lauren will be tuned.

Breakfast Club and here at the Ladies with Laura la Rosa.
