Nicki Minaj seemingly slammed her sister, Ming Li, for speaking about their estranged relationship in recent interviews.
On Monday, the “Anaconda” rapper went on a tirade while chatting with her fans on Stationhead. In the clip, Minaj — born Onika Maraj — questioned why an unnamed person would publicly speak about a “person they love.”
“Why would a person speak openly about a private person? Why would a person do that? Who would you speak about in your interviews if someone wanted to interview you? Yourself, right?” she asked.

On Monday, the “Barbie World” rapper, pictured here in 2017, questioned why someone would speak about a “private person” in an interview.
Nicki, 41, then indicated that her comments were about a relative.
“I think y’all think talent like, you could catch it like a cold. Or maybe people could pass it through the genes. Even with blood relation, what God has given to me is mine,” she shared.
“You have to go and get your own. You have to discover whatever it is that you’re great at. Being a mooch and a clown don’t run in my DNA.”
Page Six has reached out to Nicki’s rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.
“I think y’all think talent like, you could catch it like a cold. Or maybe people could pass it through the genes. Even with blood relation, what God has given to me is mine,” she said to her fans on Stationhead.
Despite the apparent shade to her half-sister — born Ming Maraj — the aspiring rapper still showed love to her big sis.
“I still love her, I tried as a sister to please her but I realize I gotta please God first cause only he can judge the gift he gave me❤️🙌,” she commented on an Instagram post of Nicki’s rant.
The 12-time Grammy nominee’s comments came after Ming, 18, got candid about how she would “get bullied a lot” when people questioned why Nicki didn’t do certain things for her.
“People used to say like, ‘Oh if this person was your sister, why didn’t she do this for you?’” Ming said in a June episode of the “We In Miami” podcast.
“I never needed her to help me get to my goal. I just needed her to see that I can do it and she can be proud of me without having to think that I needed to have an easy way to get to the top.”
Ming said independence outside of her famous sister was “really important” to her because she used to have the urge to try to “impress” the “Barbie World” emcee.

When asked what her current relationship was with Nicki, Ming replied that they were “never close” because the hip-hop star was “always busy.”
“Even though people do think that like, we are not cool, we’re gonna argue. My sister do be getting mad at me. But this is nothing new — siblings ‘gon fight.”
However, Ming said Nicki was a “good sister” who checked up on her and their father from “time to time” and made sure they were “good and situated.”
