Nicki Minaj has said she is no longer releasing her new album and she blamed Sean Carter, better known as Jay-Z, in a cryptic tweet.
The rapper initially announced her sixth studio album would be released in March 2026, but has since decided to axe the entire project
In a series of tweets shared on Wednesday, October 15, she wrote: “OK, I’m not going to put out the album anymore. No more music. Hope you’re happy now @sc. Bye, Barbz. Love you for life.”

She had tagged Jay-Z’s account, @sc, but didn’t provide any further explanation on the cancellation.
However, hours before the official announcement, she claimed “they” didn’t want her to “put out music”.
“They don’t want me to put out music. Me winning makes them feel like they lost. They’re right. However, it didn’t have to be this way,” she said.
“Lots of ppl part ways in business. They know how successful my next album is going to be. Tried to sign Wayne, Drake, me.”
Jay-Z owns Roc Nation, which is seemingly what the rapper is referring to when she tags him. She also referenced Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez in multiple tweets.
She had also tweeted: “They came BEGGING the QUEEN for a tour & album & I said NOPE!!!!! LMFAO. Wanted to patch it up. They needed help from the QUEEN & the BARBZ.”
Her latest feud comes after she battled with Cardi B on Twitter/X.
