Nicki Minaj claims that Roc Nation boss Jay-Z owes her between $100 million and $200 million after he sold the majority of his shares in the streaming platform TIDAL.

“We’ve calculated about 100–200MM so far. #JayZ call me to settle this karmic debt. It’s only collecting more interest,” Minaj wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “You still in my TOP 5 tho.”

She also tweeted, “Anyone still calling him Hov will answer to God for the blasphemy.”

Jay-Z purchased TIDAL in 2015 for $56 million, aiming to flip the script on music streaming and put power back in the hands of artists. However, TIDAL still struggled to compete with juggernauts like Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music.

In 2017, Jay reportedly sold a whopping 80% stake in the platform to telecom giant Sprint for $200 million.

Fans are trying to work out the numbers, as if 80% of the company was only worth $200 million, how can she feel she is owed such a massive amount of money, considering her stake was just 3%?
