7: How to Murder Your Career: Nicki Minaj Chose This

There was a version of Nicki Minaj's story that ended in an
undisputed, generational legacy. The first female rapper to be
taken seriously in a boys' club genre, the blueprint for every
female rap career that came after her. That version of the
story still exists — but she keeps trying to rewrite it.


This episode breaks down the slow erosion of one of the most
dominant runs in hip hop: the feuds that overshadowed the
music, the moments where she chose ego over artistry, the Megan

made it increasingly hard for even loyal fans to defend her.


The tragedy of Nicki Minaj isn't that she lost — it's that she
was winning, and she torched it herself. This one doesn't hold
back.
