Nicki ain’t sucking DJ’s ***** to P L A Y ha’ songs so they are threatening? IM GOING TO ******* END THAT SHAPE SHIFTER AND THE ALCOHOLIC OF RAP

I am speechless on the BS they keep doing to Nicki in the industry… they allowed Travis to do the MOST unethical BS stunts, then let this girl sell physical copies of a song, advertising her coochie juice on them… but as soon as Nicki & the barbs are about to exceed sales expectations….

We are all fast to forget what they did to britney with blackout, and ff.

 

They keep changing rules 

[PlatinumB]

I don't understand. Why would they do this? What is the 100 barbz contest?

Do you really think there is a giant conspiracy to bring down a random female rapper with minimal influence? She’s a pop star, that is all. And you know that this is allllll promotion and heavily managed and articulated. She knows how to market herself, so do the 100s of people behind her  

Big corporations have much bigger fish to fry, they’re in the business of making billions, not worrying about $100,000 in sales from a musician...

And btw, her ramblings literally make so sense.

Theres other things to worry about in the world.

Nicki basically asked fans to buy her music and show receipts. So Billboard phoned and threatened her that she goes “against the rules”. I’m really pissed off! Nicki was predicted to sell over 250k of Pink Friday so they want to stop her. CAN YOU IMAGINE THESE HOEEEESZZZ?

That's so bizzare?  Why would showing receipts be against the rules but buying different remixes of the same song isn't against the rules?  Billboard is a mess.

I don't know if you were here when they changed the rules suddenly after BLACKOUT dropped. It's strange. I don't care what anybody says, "DO WE HAVE A PROBLEM" by Nicki is a #1 record, but they filtered the sales due to "mass buying." LIKE WHAT? Lil Nas X was cash apping fans to buy his album, and Cardi was paying radios to play her songs. INDUSTRY PLANTS!

 

[Style.]

But when the s** worker of rap, ex rap*** by the name Belcalis Almanzar DOES this, then what?

Nicki has been so boring and repetitive lately.

Always wanna show and make sure is known to the whole world how great she is. 

Babe put some effort into making great music, you will not need to worry about anything else then. 
She’s been doing the same old flow and rapping the same old lyrics since 2015.

I think I was here but I wasn't a member. Joined in 09  I remember them changing the rules last minute so vividly. Yeah it's weird that its always women who get the last minute changes...

What’s the correlation with the thread? Can you read? It doesn’t matter if the music is TRASH or not, the fans ARE buying the music regardless so why punish her for having a fandom?

Billboard sucks balls!

The chart system is so outdated. Imagine music being about music and not about sales and #1’s. Commercial success has no effect on the music I love.
