Nicki Minaj has taken to social media tonight, expressing her unhappiness at Grammy-granting body the Recording Academy.
The group issued a decision today that Minaj’s recent song “Super Freaky Girl” doesn’t qualify to compete as a rap song at the annual awards show, and will instead be forced into the “pop” category.
Nicki Minaj protesting saying that she would be OK with the shift if it were applied consistently to other artists that straddle the crossover line, which she believes is not the case.
“I have no prob being moved out the RAP category as long as we r ALL being treated FAIRLY,” Minaj tweeted late Thursday, in response to her submission being moved out of her chosen category. “If SFG (‘Super Freaky Girl’) has 2B moved out RAP then so does Big Energy!” she added, referring to the Latto hit of that name. “ANY1 who says diff is simply a Nicki hater or a troll.”
Minaj had a series of tweets on the matter. She even answered a Twitter user who noted, “Anaconda was nominated for Rap Song. Wouldn’t you say that SFG and Anaconda are sonically similar. So what changed??? #grammys”
“I’d LOVE to know,” Minaj replied.

She added later, “Could you imagine someone telling you not to ‘complain’ about being treated unfairly at your workplace?” she wrote. “This is my job. I work very hard. No diff from a 9-5 where you should speak up for yourself if you know you’re a great employee & continue to be purposely sabotaged.”
