Jason Martin, a Compton rapper known as Problem, took to Instagram on Sunday (June 18) to voice the allegations.In the post, Martin claimed that Minaj had been working on a song called “Barbie World” with Saweetie for several months, but that Minaj eventually replaced Saweetie with Ice Spice. He also alleged that Minaj had been using Saweetie's idea for the song's music video without her permission.Saweetie has not yet responded to the allegations. Minaj has not commented on the matter.The accusations have sparked a debate on social media, with some people supporting Martin's claims and others defending Minaj. Some people have pointed out that Minaj has used the name "Barbie" in her music for years, and that it is not clear that Saweetie actually had a finished song called "Barbie World." Others have said that it is unfair to accuse Minaj of stealing Saweetie's concept without any concrete evidence.The allegations have also raised questions about the ethics of sampling in hip hop. Some people have argued that Minaj's use of Saweetie's idea for the music video is not technically sampling, since she did not use any of Saweetie's vocals or lyrics. However, others have said that Minaj's use of Saweetie's idea is still unethical, even if she did not use any of her original material.The allegations against Minaj are still unproven, but they have raised important questions about the ethics of sampling in hip hop and the ownership of ideas in the music industry. It remains to be seen how the situation will be resolved.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
