Dr. Umar Johnson Delivers A Blunt Message To Nicki Minaj

During an interview on the platform, dressed in a yellow-and-black hoodie, Johnson acknowledged Nicki’s immense talent and intelligence, saying, “Very talented sister, very articulate sister, very intelligent sister, tremendous lyricist. Few sisters I could put in front of her in terms of lyrical talent.” But he didn’t hold back his disappointment, questioning her decision to use her platform and success to support political figures. “How dare you build a comfortable life for you and your beautiful family…and use that success to help Donald Trump leverage his military agenda?… Our sister Nicki…you are being used,” he said, delivering a blunt warning to the hip-hop star.

The Comments Section Is Divided

Why Did Dr. Umar Johnson Come For Nicki Minaj?

Nicki Minaj caught everyone by surprise at AmericaFest 2025, sitting down for an exclusive chat with Turning Point USA and Erika Kirk, wife of the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The rap superstar didn’t hold back, showering praise on Donald Trump for his perseverance and calling him a source of hope for many. But the moment that really had the crowd buzzing? Her subtle, shade-filled comment about Vice President JD Vance, whom she referred to as an “assassin,” left fans and onlookers wondering what exactly sparked that energy. This isn’t Minaj’s first time aligning with Trump either—she recently took to X to support his stance on military action in Nigeria, stressing that no group should be persecuted for their religion.
