Cardi B Sparks New Nicki Minaj Feud Rumors With Verse on Young Thug’s Uy Scuti
Written by b87fm on 09/26/2025
Cardi B’s feature on Young Thug’s new album Uy Scuti is sending the internet into overdrive, as fans dissect a fiery lyric many believe is aimed at her longtime rival, Nicki Minaj—and Nicki’s husband, Kenneth Petty.
On the track “On The News,” released September 26, Cardi raps:
“How you laughing when I heard you getting beat on, gotta pay your n**a way every trip y’all be on.”*

The bar immediately lit up social media, with fans convinced Cardi is throwing direct shade at Nicki’s marriage. The first half of the lyric is being read as a jab at rumors about the couple’s relationship, while the second part paints Petty as financially dependent on Minaj—a narrative that’s followed him due to his legal troubles and limited career path.
Young Thug hasn’t commented on the line or the speculation around the two rappers’ beef, but the timing of Cardi’s verse is impossible to ignore. Just days earlier, Nicki Minaj announced her next studio album, set for March 27, 2026. Fans online quickly connected the dots, suggesting Cardi’s bar was designed to disrupt Nicki’s rollout while reigniting their feud.
This wouldn’t be the first time the two have gone head-to-head. Their rivalry dates back to their infamous clash at New York Fashion Week in 2018, and every few years, it seems to resurface with a new spark.
With Uy Scuti already dominating hip-hop headlines, the question remains: Was Cardi B just rapping—or did she just fire another round in one of rap’s most talked-about rivalries?
