Is the song a collab with Nicki Minaj?

Rumours that the song is a collaboration with rapper Nicki Minaj surfaced on Wednesday (May 20), when Power 105.1 radio jock Honey German revealed the news via Twitter. Honey tweeted: “I’m hearing that @6ix9ine has a new track with @NICKIMINAJ coming out soon – Let us wait"

6ix9ine's friend and blogger, DJ Akademiks, offered the suggestion, "Taco."

Nicki Minaj then tweeted an emoji of a taco, which created more hype about the possible Nicki collab.

On 24 May, 2020, Tekashi posted on his Instagram that whoever guesses the feature on his new song will get to go to his house.

The majority of the comments are guessing Nicki Minaj.

Justin responded to the allegations in an Instagram story: "60,000 units came because we don't disclose our numbers until the end of week.

"That's called strategy."

He went on: "The rules are clear one credit card can buy max 4 copies. Anything over that the entire amount gets thrown out.

Ariana's post further defended her fans against Tekashi's accusations calling them "ride or die motherf**kers and I thank god every day that I have them in my life.

"Not just when they fight for us to win (even when I ask them not to as I did this week) but because they’re some of the greatest people I know.”

"YOU ARE VERY TALENTED AND BEAUTIFUL GOD BLESS YOU. But you will NEVER UNDERSTAND MY PAIN.”
