Y'All Seen This? Nicki Minaj Calls Steven Tyler's Comment Racist on Twitter

[gemini86]

He basically said she wouldn't get the most out of a contestant's musical ability . Which I agree with because she can't get the most out of her own talent .

So you mean becoming the highest selling female rap artist of all time is not making the most of your talent? Come on, B- stop reachin' with the hate.

i hope u dont mean nicki minaj is the highest selling female rap artist of all time. im pretty sure lil kim, foxy brown, lauren hill... especially lauren hill, and the brat sold more records than her

Why is she even on the show anyways, the bitch can't sing.

there was slight racist shade in that comment though, lets not play dumb

steven tyler thinks black people don't like folk music, which is where the bob dylan comment came from

as if nicki's incapable of enjoying someone like dylan because of her skin color

lets not play dumb. if you've ever been to a rock show or had an in depth conversation about rock with a white person, the amazement on their faces is hilarious.

True. My question is why did he say that? Maybe she was being too harsh on a contestant and he used that analogy saying she wouldn't know talent if it stared her in the face. Or did he say it randomly? Either way she pulled that race card hella quickly, shit wasn't even that serious.

she did jump to the race card quickly, shows she walks around with that motherfucker up her sleeve all day.

Looked further into it, and this is the full quote from Tyler

"These [contestants], they just got out of a car from the Midwest somewhere, and they're in New York City. They're scared to death; you're not going to get the best [out of them]. If it was Bob Dylan, Nicki Minaj would have had him sent to the cornfield! Whereas, if it was Bob Dylan with [me and J.Lo], we would have brought the best of him out, as we did with Phillip Phillips. Just sayin'."

Meaning, Nicki wouldn't know what to do with an artist music wise, which is true seeing her own critical failures as a musician. He just so happened to offhandedly mention Bob Dylan. But he basically said what everyone's been saying about Minaj going to Idol: she's just there for the ratings, not to help the artists.

she shoul get donkey of the day but shes not lol. they aint even put that interview with her up there cuz of how she treated them it looks like

 

[Lincoln]

Whats so racist about what he said? She must have never seen that one episode of the Twilight Zone

props for the reference. this is probably over so many heads.

 

[OGClarenceBoddicker]

That's what social networking

lol...Bob Dylan and Steven Tyler are OG's in the music world. Does Nicki Minaj really think they would pay attention to what she thinks about their comments? Her gimmicky attempts at race-baiting attention don't work on them.

Steven Tyler was probably lampin' in his pool in his castle around a bunch of hoes when he saw this and thought "this bitch is crazy, i've been doing this back when her mama was suckin' on her grandma's titties".

To which Bob Dylan probably replied "Nicki's mama got one big titty and one small titty, and we called that bitch 'biggie smalls'"

Certain shit you can't say to Black folks.

That bolded in yo post, if a White dude said that shit to me, especially a old White dude, it might be sum. That ain't no mama joke, that's a mammy joke.

Don't use "cornfield" to no nigga, don't matter how you mean it.

At the same time she took it too out of context. Sound like he was just sayin she a tough judge.

White people just don't know how to interact wit Black people.

@SwampNigga learn what the fuck cornfields meant and don't be stupid.

 

[blackrain]

His comments weren't racist ...premature being that nobody has seen any of the show, but not racist

Boy sit yo hipster, trendy, "I just read that Twilight Zone episode reference on that Complex link comment section now Im gonna act like I knew somethin everyone else didn't" ass down some where, cracka ass.

You ain't built for discussion in no area.

First Mariah Carey, now Steven Tyler. She keep messing wit these heavyweights, she's gonna find herself outta the industry. And then we will get the porno Nicki Minaj that we've been waiting for. Her dignity is just low enough to do it after those "Barbs" or whatever the fuck they are out-grow her dumbass image.

She was upset about Walmart and Target retail stores not stocking enough of her lastest album the re-up and so far it look like it is going to have dismal numbers for the first week.

[(Nope)]

Steven Tyler was trying to get at my mom once upon time, she should have let him smash so I could get some Aerosmith money.

being the highest selling anything in this era means 9 times outta 10 you don't have talent just pop gimmicks that appeal across genres. The cater 4 sold around 900K first week and that shit was a weed plate and nobody even plays shit from it anymore. Talent doesn't= sales just like telling the truth doesn't=allot of press or site hits. The more you troll and have gimmicks the more attention/numbers you do.

You're right, I also don't wan't those genes, I don't need to be out chea looking like a grown ass lizard anyway.

 

[yeah i rap so don't]

Not giving her attention is the answer man.

Bruh, you still making music?

If so send something new to my inbox.

Also, if you're a grown man who listens to Nicki Minaj, chances are your favorite channel is Bravo.

He was referring to a classic episode of the Twilight Show when he made that statement not racism
