In an ongoing feud that continues to capture the attention of fans, Nicki Minaj has fired back at SZA with a series of sharp social media posts. This latest round of drama comes after SZA leaked a text message in which she asked for a feature from Nicki back in 2020, reigniting tensions between the two artists.
On July 17, 2025, Nicki took to X (formerly Twitter) to reference SZA’s contribution to the “Black Panther” soundtrack, where she performed on the hit song “All the Stars.” She sarcastically remarked, “Oh wait is that the lady that sang on black panther song? I LOVED THAT MOVIE!!!!” followed by jabs about SZA’s age and her singing career.
The feud escalated when SZA shared screenshots of their past text exchanges, highlighting that Nicki had previously requested features from her without any follow-up. SZA’s caption read, “Nicki. You absolutely know my music and what I contribute cause you’ve asked for features twice to no response.” This prompted Nicki to respond with more pointed comments, including insinuations about SZA’s authenticity.
The back-and-forth started when SZA tweeted about “Mercury retrograde,” suggesting to her followers not to take the bait from trolls. Nicki interpreted this as a slight and retaliated with her own tweet, accusing SZA of being disingenuous. The tension has only increased as both artists have taken to social media to express their feelings, with SZA attempting to shift her focus back to her tour amidst the drama.
Despite the ongoing feud, SZA has chosen to focus on her music and upcoming performances, stating, “Lmao lemme go back to being calm shy and meek. Y’all have blessed night!” as she prepared for her next concert.
As this high-profile conflict continues to unfold, fans are left wondering what will come next from both artists and how it may influence their music moving forward.
