Nicki Minaj Joins Ariana Grande In Blasting Grammys’ Producer
I pissed off the same man Ariana just called out for lying. Grammy producer KEN. I was bullied into staying quiet for 7 years out of fear. But I’ll tell my fans the REAL on the next episode of #QueenRadio they deserve the truth.
Also, CONGRATS to everyone who won last night. 🙏🏽 https://t.co/YjmoIOPt6o

Nicki Minaj was noticeably absent from this year’s Grammys, and the rap phenom opened the floodgates when she revealed why in her latest Twitter tirade.
Minaj took aim at Grammy producer Ken Ehrlich to claim that he was the reason she’s never won a Grammy, despite earning 10 nominations.
“I p***** off the same man Ariana [Grande] just called out for lying,” the Head Barb tweeted. “Grammy producer KEN.”
She continued, “I was bullied into staying quiet for 7 years out of fear. But I’ll tell my fans the REAL on the next episode of #QueenRadio they deserve the truth.”
i offered 3 different songs. it’s about collaboration. it’s about feeling supported. it’s about art and honesty. not politics. not doing favors or playing games. it’s just a game y’all.. and i’m sorry but that’s not what music is to me.

As previously reported, Grande declined to both attend and perform on Sunday’s ceremony because she said her “creativity and self-expression” were “stifled” by Ehrlich. Word was that Ehrlich placed what Grande considered to be unreasonable restrictions on what she could perform on the broadcast. She also accused the producer of lying to the press about why she was absent from the ceremony.
