Nicki Minaj says SZA sounds “like a fkng dead dog” as social media spat erupts

Nicki Minaj has said that SZA sounds “like a fkng dead dog” as the two artists have traded insults on social media.

The spat broke out on X on Tuesday when Minaj posted a shot at Terrence “Punch” Henderson, the president of Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE), the label that is home to SZA. “Yall remember that man from tde who kept bullying me on Twitter for no reason?” she wrote.

“We have the receipts. Lol. I never even responded to him. What was his name again, yall? Im going to give him a nickname. Ima call him ‘Minus 30 million’ from now on. #JusticeForDemoree.”

In a follow-up post, Minaj added: “Tiny Dick Executive.”

Shortly afterwards, SZA posted: “Mercury retrograde…don’t take the bait lol silly goose.”

Minaj appeared to take the post as a response to her comments on Henderson, replying: “Go draw your freckles back on bookie”, before adding: “Liar liar pants on fire. Sounding like a fkng dead dog.”

She also included support for Demoree Hadley in her post, the daughter of Desiree Perez, the CEO of Roc Nation. Hadley has claimed in a recent lawsuit that her mother had her unlawfully institutionalised in mental health facilities for nearly two weeks.

SZA did respond to that tweet directly, writing: “I don’t give a fuck bout none of that weird shit you popping.”

IN REAL LIFE. My parents are healthy and I’m the most successful I ever been. GET SOME FUCKING PERSPECTIVE n BARK AT THE WALL!!!”

Minaj recently claimed that she is owed $200million (£148m) by Jay-Z, which she said was linked to her equity in the music streaming platform Tidal, and said that the Democrats had “attacked me over my cousin’s balls”.

SZA, meanwhile, recently spoke out alongside Chappell Roan about how they are affected by public backlash. “You don’t get another time to make a second impression,” she said. “People just take that shit and go and build your identity. And it’s excruciating, and it’s hurtful, and it is devastating. And I do be crying. And I needed you to say that.”
