Last Friday, Megan Thee Stallion seemingly went hard against Nicki Minaj with her single “HISS,” which references Megan’s Law in a line thought to be about Minaj’s husband, a registered sex offender. Minaj instantly fired back on Instagram live, teasing a proper diss track that arrives today in the form of “Big Foot,” a brutal litany of insults and allegations that is sure to keep this beef simmering for the foreseeable future.
Before the song’s lone verse even begins, Nicki uses the intro suggest she might purchase the rights to Megan’s songs and claim that the Houston rapper had sexual relations with a man her late mother had been seeing. Nicki also charges Megan with fake crying during a 2022 interview on CBS This Morning.
’Fore I hit Carl and buy your catalog
(Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha) Sigh
How you fuck your mother man when she die?
How you go on Gayle King and can’t cry?
At the start of the verse, Nicki accuses Megan of using ghostwriters, among them Pardison Fontaine, Megan’s ex-boyfriend.
This lil’ beggin’ whore talkin’ ’bout Megan’s law
For a free beat, you could hit Megan raw (Ooh)
If you a ghost writer, Pardi in Megan jaw (Ooh)
Next comes the first of several references to the 2020 incident in which Megan was shot in the foot by Tory Lanez. The Canadian rapper and singer was ultimately sentenced to 10 years for the assault.
Bad bitch, she like six foot (Ooh),
I call her Big Foot (Brr)
The bitch fell off, I said, “Get up on your good foot”
Nicki doesn’t believe Megan actually got shot—or at the very least, she knows it’ll hurt Megan to align herself with that conspiracy theory. So she claims Megan lied to Gayle King about the shooting, and that she failed to tell the truth about undergoing cosmetic surgery. Nicki also blasts Megan for allegedly sleeping with her former best friend’s man.
Um, why did you lie about your lypo?
Fuckin’ your best friend man is crazy, you the type, though
You was lyin’ to the Queen, then you went lyin’ to the King, Gayle
In the outro, Minaj threatens to release more songs—she apparently has five cued up—if Megan doesn’t say she’s sorry by tomorrow. Nicki also throws a diss at internet personality KenBarbie, with whom she’s had drama in recent years.
I don’t think you want the next installment of this song
I know it’s the most attention you’ve ever gotten
One-flow hoe, but, uh, trust
If you don’t apologize to your mama in 24 hours
Shit gon’ get uglier than KenBarbie, okay? Don’t play
