Nicki Minaj Denies Cocaine Abuse Rumors: “I’ve Never Done Coke In My Life”

Nicki Minaj’s behavior over the last several days had many social media users questioning if she has a substance abuse problem. The Hip-Hop superstar went on a days-long tirade on social media about Megan Thee Stallion following the release of Meg’s “Hiss” single.

According to Nicki Minaj, the rumors about her having cocaine-fueled rants are completely false. Around 12:30 am on Monday (January 29), while promoting her “Big Foot” diss record, the 41-year-old rapper addressed the speculation that she spent over 72 hours on a drug binge.

“Whenever you see the words ‘coke rant’ you know they mad. If y’all hear how loud I’m laughing,” Minaj tweeted. “I’ve never done coke in my life. But if I did, I’d do it proudly. Waited up all night for this ‘ass’ song tho right?”

This was not the first time Nicki Minaj had to address online rumblings about a possible addiction to narcotics, specifically cocaine. While denying coke usage, the “Pills n Potions” performer admitted to using other drugs in May 2021.

“I wouldn’t be embarrassed about any f###### drugs I did, that’s why I talk about the m############ drugs I do in my m############ music,” Minaj said at the time. “Always have, always f###### will. If I’m off ’em, I’m off ’em, child.”

Nicki Minaj’s “Big Foot” has been met with mixed reviews so far. The Pink Friday 2 album creator’s loyal fans have been praising the song. Minaj retweeted Barbz’s positive posts about the track.

However, a lot of the reactions to “Big Foot” have been negative as well. Many X users panned Minaj’s audio clapback to Megan Thee Stallion. In addition, commenters on the official YouTube version of “Big Foot” clowned the song. Read some of the YouTube comments below.
