A fan chimed in on the post, expressing, “Isn’t it frustrating that she only shows up when she wants something from you? It’s been almost a year since she dropped the trailer and still no visuals. I’d be pretty annoyed relying on the element of surprise.”
Not a single visual from super cokey grandma begins to compare to Beyonce’s. Nobody cares about what you’d be pissed about tbh. This not your fight. Move!

Another commenter added, “You all conveniently ignore her and her family, the shady behind-the-scenes dealings, and everything done to elevate her. Talking about morals? Laughing my a** off! You’re selective. You just don’t like Nicki. Next case.”
And yal love to overlook her & HER FAMILY, the nasty BEHIND THE SCENES tings, & the things that have been done to GET HER WHERE SHE IS. Wanna talk about morals?! Lmfaoooo! Yal pick n choose. Yal just don’t like Nicki. Next case. 🤣🤣

Unlike many music stars, Beyoncé seldom expresses her opinions on social media. Instead, she relies on sharing photos and videos that convey her message. Artists like Minaj and Cardi B, on the other hand, are highly active and leverage platforms like Instagram Live, Twitter, and other apps to engage with their fans on their own terms.
