See tracklist below:
The most talked about track on the album is “Barbie Dreams” where she took aim at Drake, DJ Khaled, Meek Mill, Young Thug, among others.
For Drake, she said: “Drake worth a hundred milli, always buying me sh–/ But I don’t know if the pussy wet or if he’s crying and sh–”
Meek Mill – “Meek still be in my DMs, I be having to duck him/ ‘I used to pray for times like this,’ face ass when I f— him”
DJ Khaled – “Had to cancel DJ Khaled, boy, we ain’t speaking/ Ain’t no fat n—a telling me what he ain’t eating”
Young Thug – “Used to f— with Young Thug, I ain’t addressing this sh–/ I caught him in my dressing rooms stealing dresses and sh–”.
Addressing criticism on the track, Nicki Minaj, on her new Apple Beats 1 “Queen Radio” show this week, Nicki Minaj said:
You guys know that’s not a diss, right. I love them. I said things about people who can take a joke and not be emotional about it.
Reading the reactions to ‘Barbie Dreams’ is f—ing hilarious. Everyone is saying how disrespectful ‘Barbie Dreams’ is, and that’s why I f—ing love it.
She also said on Twitter that the track is not a diss, adding that it’s “light-hearted”. She wrote:
