Nicki Minaj may boast owning two of 2022’s top-selling singles courtesy of her inaugural solo Hot 100 topper, ‘Super Freaky Girl,’ and its predecessor, ‘Do We Have a Problem,’ but it appear it’s the Recording Academy that has the problem with the iconic Rap diva.

Details inside.

Minaj is no stranger to being shut out by the GRAMMYs as she – despite having delivered some of the last decade’s most memorable female Rap efforts – has only garnered 10 nominations (but no wins) since her 2010 debut album, ‘Pink Friday.’

On the other hand, most – including the femcee herself – expected a different outcome for the award show’s 2023 ceremony given the gargantuan commercial and critical response to her 2022 offerings, namely ‘Girl.’

However, weeks ago the 39-year-old may have landed on the wrong side of the Academy’s radar when she called them out for reports that her Rick James-sampling tune was under consideration for inclusion in Pop categories instead of Rap.  In seeming response, they omitted her from every category as revealed at a nominations’ special that aired Tuesday (November 15).

While Nicki herself hasn’t responded to the snub, her faithful fans – affectionately called Barbz – haven’t done as well keeping their silence on the matter.

Look below to see some responses.
