Nicki Minaj joins Lil Wayne for a remix of the ‘Carter VI’ song and takes shots at the NFL, JAY-Z & Shannon Sharpe

“Banned From NO” is off of Lil Wayne‘s new album Tha Carter VI, which was just released last Friday (June 6).

The Queen's icon then dives headfirst into her bristling verse, which finds her sniping at NFL player-turned-podcast host Shannon Sharpe, who has been critical of Minaj in the past. Minaj doesn’t hold back, using sharp wit and clever wordplay to address the former NFL player Shannon Sharpe, who turned into a sports media personality.

“If I send a pic of Shannon you ain’t that Sharpe/ Cause you still can’t spell Prague and that’s horrible,” she raps.

Nicki finally clapped back in the booth after the Pro Football Hall of Fame and former co-host of First Take on ESPN shaded Nicki last year in February. Sharpe shut down a fan’s request for him to host the Queens rapper.

“@ShannonSharpe Nicki said on Stationhead she wanted to be on your podcast!! I really want to hear you talk to her about everything going on in the media, especially after her snub tonight!” the social media user wrote.

Sharpe, shuts down the idea, as he quote-tweeted the post soon after with a succinct “Nicki who?”

Nicki also sent a shot at the NFL and Jay-Z about their choices for the Super Bowl Halftime Show, which overlooked Wayne in his hometown earlier this year. “NFL, fire some n—s and then call us,” she spews in defense of the Young Money boss.

Tha Carter VI arrived on Friday (June 6) filled with 19 tracks and features from Kodak Black, MGK, Bono, BigXthaPlug, Jelly Roll and Big Sean. The “Banned From NO (Remix)” marks the first Weezy-Minaj collaboration since 2023’s “RNB” from Pink Friday 2.
