It's been a hot minute since Nicki Minaj blessed us with some new music, so when she debuted her remix of Yo Gotti's social media-inspired anthem "Down in the DM" on Thursday, traffic stopped, Congress shut down and school was canceled.
Well, all of those things should have happened because Minaj name-checks some of the biggest names in the biz, like Drake, Miley Cyrus and Kylie Jenner, in two blistering verses you'll be reciting deep into 2016.
Here are the highlights: (Explicit lyrics below)
"Fuck you mean? Fuck your little memes / Even Queen Bey had to tell 'em I'm the queen."
Let's all go back to a simpler time: the Drake vs. Meek Mill feud of 2015. After Meek Mill, Minaj's boyfriend, accused Drake of ghostwriting his lyrics, the Toronto rapper clapped back with two diss tracks and a barrage of memes insinuating that Mill was only famous because of his connection to Minaj.
At his concert in August 2015, Drake performed against a backdrop of some the most viral Meek Mill memes, including one that featured a participation award for Mill's diss track "Wanna Know." #dead.
The "little memes" Minaj references on the track are most likely referring to the feud and Drake's involvement in propagating the anti-Meek Mill posts. Minaj drops Queen B to remind fans of their multiple collaborations over the past year, including the "Flawless" remix and "Feeling Myself." And B literally called Minaj a rap queen during her freestyle at the TIDAL X: 1020 concert in Brooklyn.
"Then he put his hands in my pants / Felt them thick lips and got wood / He said, 'Kylie, wuss good?' / I said, 'Miley, wuss good?'"
Minaj comes for Kylie Jenner next, comparing the 18-year-old's much-discussed lip injections to her own vagina, while simultaneously throwing in a reference to her glorious MTV VMAs moment.
Well, this is super awkward now.
Listen to the full track below and please inscribe our most favorite lyric from the remix on our tombstone: "If it go down in your DM then baby boy, you lucky /
'Cause 99.9% of these fuckboys can't fuck me."
