She continued and explained that Nicki Minaj cut ties with her after she made similar comments in the past. βI said I agree that Nicki kinda f**k with the girls who canβt really rap β when you got the girls over here (herself) who really do,β Banks declared. βNow, some people might get mad at me for saying that, but itβs the truth. Everybody canβt rap.β She added her perspective is βnot because Iβm a rapper. Iβm saying it because not everybodyβs going to say it.βΒ
