Tekashi 6ix9ine and Nicki Minaj released their latest collaboration called "Trollz," marking the second single from the rainbow-haired rapper since his release from prison. Before it even came out, it was the subject of much controversy as people attacked Minaj for working with the accused snitch. Now that the track is getting airplay, people are picking up on some of the Queen's bars and, as always, she's got people talking.
There are a couple of lyrics that stand out in Mrs. Minaj's verse, including possible digs at LisaRaye McCoy and Usher.
"Somebody usher this n***a into a clinic/My flow's still sick, I ain't talkin' a pandemic," raps the legend in her verse. While she likely isn't directly dissing Usher, the R&B star did say that Minaj got her "blueprint" from Lil Kim. Maybe this is her way of getting back at him. After all, Usher likely does spend a lot of time at the clinic, given all the herpes accusations he has faced.
A more direct line came before though.
"Dollar, dollar bill, come get her/Even your man know Nickis do it better," she said to start off her portion of the track. This is a dig at LisaRaye McCoy, who starred in The Players Club. In the movie, Dollar Bill owns the club. LisaRaye accused Nicole Murphy (get it? Another Nicki...) of wrecking her marriage last year.
Clever lines from the Queen.
R. Kelly Begs For Prison Release, Pleads Not Guilty To Herpes Allegations
R. Kelly has been making a ton of news from behind bars.
R. Kelly’s alleged crimes have been very well-documented in the media and his alleged victims are adamant that they want to see justice served. As of right now, the disgraced R&B singer is behind bars and awaiting trial, while also having to deal with other pending indictments. For instance, it was reported by Vulture that Kelly recently plead not guilty to an indictment that included nine counts of racketeering and sexual abuse. Within this indictment, Kelly was accused of knowingly exposing two women to herpes. In fact, one of these alleged victims was a minor.
Aside from these matters, Kelly is looking to get himself out of jail, once again. If you remember, we reported on how Kelly tried to convince the judge to let him out of prison, twice during the month of April. Of course, the Coronavirus is making its way through the prison system and Kelly wants to make sure he stays safe of the illness.

According to TMZ, this time around, Kelly and his lawyer are claiming that the singer is “likely diabetic” and could be at risk of death should he become infected with COVID-19.
The judge has yet to make a decision although they fear Kelly could intimidate witnesses should he be allowed to leave early. The singer is making the case that he will be on his best behavior although it remains to be seen if his efforts will get him anywhere.
Stay tuned for updates on this story as we will be sure to bring them to you.
