Was Nicki Minaj Abused By Her Father? Cardi B Makes Shocking Claims, 'Haven't Forgave Your Mother'

Nicki Minaj and Cardi B have lately been embroiled in a heated exchange of words through X (formerly Twitter) posts. It was a continuation of the years-old feud between the rap queens. The two beloved singers have a history of taking digs at each other and even going so far as to indulge in fistfights. Recently, Nicki Minaj reignited the conflict by dissing the album sales numbers of Cardi B's new album, Am I the Drama? As both sides went personal and hit each other's vulnerable spots, Cardi B made bombshell claims regarding Nicki suffering ab*se from her father as a child.

Did Nicki Minaj's father ab*se her as a child?

Nicki Minaj had mentioned her late father, Robert Maraj's ab*sive nature time and again. She opened up about the detrimental effect he had on her life and career. In numerous interviews and also in the trailer of her shelved Netflix documentary, the Barbie World singer recalled how her mother couldn't resist her father's ab*se and it was Nicki who stood up for her. Now Cardi B has provided additional information regarding the issue. She alleged that Nicki's father did not just ab*se her mother, but the rapper was also subjected to similar hostilities.

In one of her latest October 2, 2025 tweets, Cardi mentioned that Nicki suffered from childhood 'trauma' due to her father touching her inappropriately when she was a child. The Bodak Yellow singer also stated that Nicki herself shared that the little girl inside of her would never be able to forgive her mother, as she was a bystander when Robert ab*sed Nicki. After making such a personal revelation about Nicki, Cardi didn't stop. She went on to allege Nicki of resorting to dr*gs to numb her pain and trauma and advised her that it wasn't the right thing to do. Cardi B wrote:

"You said out your own mouth that the lil girl in you haven't forgave your mother yet and that's because your mom used to stay silent when your dad used to touch on you everytime he did that crack pipe… I know you experienced a lot of trauma and abuse but drugs is not gonna help you."

Cardi B accused Nicki Minaj's husband of cashing in on her addiction

Cardi B said that Nicki Minaj "need to go to therapy NOW" and that her husband, Kenneth Petty, would never try to help her with her addiction. In her lengthy tweet addressed to Nicki, Cardi wrote, Kenneth "is not stoppin you from your actions because he lets you do drugs all day to numb you so he can max out your credit card." The WAP singer alleged that Nicki's so-called friends, whom she invites into her house and shares her life stories with, go out and talk behind her back. However, Cardi wanted to be 'the realest peeson' to her and let her know that she needed medical help for her mental health.

Why did Cardi B share such personal deets about Nicki Minaj?

If Cardi B's post is to be believed, Nicki had a particularly troubled childhood, and her friends and family were reportedly trying to capitalise on it. However, you might wonder what led her to the point where she decided to share such vulnerable details of Nicki's life with the world. Nicki started the war of tweets with a dig at Cardi's album sales numbers, and after a response from Cardi, the former dragged the latter's children into the drama. She made defamatory comments on Cardi's 8-year-old daughter, Kulture's appearance, referring to her as 'ugly', 'roach', 'monkey' and 'vulture'. She also accused Cardi of infidelity, leading Cardi to lash out at her, too.
