Nicki Minaj Sides with Judge Brinkley in Meek Mill Case
Nicki Minaj has raised quite a few eyebrows today, following the release of her Elle Magazine cover story.
Just a day after Meek Mill‘s request to have Judge Brinkley removed from his case was denied, Minaj’s interview with Elle has been released.
Covering the July issue, Nicki Minaj was asked about her thoughts on Meek Mill’s case, views on the judge, and where she thinks Meek Mill’s freedom stands.
“I wouldn’t wish that on anybody,” Nicki states after hearing the news of Meek’s bail denial back in April. “But I’m also not gonna bad-mouth a judge who…because anything I say stays on the record.”
Just when the interviewer was about to move on, Nicki continued to side with Judge Brinkley.
“I know that when I went there pleading for his freedom, I know that she”—Judge Brinkley—”spoke to me and was very sweet and maternal, and we both cried in her chambers, and she gave him another chance,” Nicki says. “So I don’t know what’s going on.”
These comments come after Meek Mill’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, stated to various outlets how inappropriate Common Pleas Judge Genece Brinkley has been, making this situation a personal vendetta against Meek Mill. Judge Genece Brinkley was accused of making the request that Meek Mill re-record a famous Philadelphia pop band, Boyz II Men’s song “On Bended Knee,” in dedication to her, after his 2 – 4-year sentencing back in November of 2017.
Meek Mill was released on Apri 24th, 2018 following a decision made by the Supreme Court of Philadelphia, overruling Judge Genece Brinkley.
Chance The Rapper quietly revealed his upcoming mixtape, “Star Line,” via Instagram. In his bio, he simply stated, “Working on my mixtape it’s called Star Line.” The project will feature collaborations with notable artists like Lil Wayne, DJ Premier, Lil Yachty, and more.
On X (formerly Twitter), Chance shared a teaser clip featuring appearances from Wayne, Preemo, Lil Yachty, Jermaine Dupri, T-Pain, Jazze Pha, and Vic Mensa. Additionally, he gave fans a sneak peek of a new track titled “Buried Alive” and polled them on whether he should drop a music video for it.

“Star Line” marks Chance The Rapper’s follow-up to his 2019 album, “The Big Day.”
Saweetie took to social media Tuesday morning that her ex-boyfriend Quavo reached out to her via direct messages, following his mention of her in his latest diss track aimed at Chris Brown, titled “Over Hoes & B-tches.”
In the song, Quavo raps, “I can take a model chick and make a Saweetie, n-gga,” which Saweetie didn’t take lightly. She shared a screenshot from January 2024, showing Quavo’s message on Instagram, which she hadn’t opened. The preview read, “Damn. We used to mean af to each…” Saweetie’s caption for the screenshot humorously suggested she hopes the model Quavo compares to her.

The history between Saweetie and Quavo dates back to their relationship from 2018 to 2021, which ended amid allegations of infidelity on Quavo’s part. Chris Brown didn’t hesitate to leverage their past relationship in his own diss track, “Weakest Link,” claiming to have been involved with Saweetie while she was still with Quavo.
“You fucked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no fuck, lil n-gga/ ‘Cause I fucked yo’ ex when you were still with her, bitch, I’m up, lil n-gga,” he rapped.
Quavo previously dated Brown’s ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran, who filed for a restraining order against Brown after their breakup in 2017.
After the recent launch of her haircare line CÉCRED, Beyoncé surprised fans, offering a glimpse into her personal wash day routine, showcasing how CÉCRED complements her natural hair.
In an Instagram caption she writes, “It has been such a special experience seeing all of your #cecredwashday rituals all over my timeline… I just had to join in with something I had in the archives 🥰
Being disruptive and challenging everything people feel should be the process has always been exciting to me. My hair and music seemed to do that a lot over the years…
Maintaining 25 years of blonde on natural hair through all the experimenting I do has played a huge part in developing @cecred’s products. It’s the hardest to keep color-treated hair healthy and strong, but @cecred is here. All quality, with NO shortcuts. Congratulations to the entire CÉCRED team for contributing to developing award-winning products. 💕
Happy #cecredwashday!
You are CÉCRED.”
