Nicki Minaj Declares Herself The 'Queen' Of Rap On New Track 'Yikes'

Nicki Minaj's first single of 2020 is here!

On Friday (February 7), Queen Barbz dropped "Yikes" — a bass-heavy track produced by Pooh Beatz that is reportedly serving as the promotional single for her highly anticipated fifth studio album.

As fans know, the song sparked controversy when Nicki teased it on Instagram Monday (February 3), playing a snippet of the track that included a Rosa Parks name-drop. "Woke up, the price of coke up/ I just hit them with the low cut, then call my folks up/ Somebody 'bout to get poked up, go call the tow truck/ All that talking out your neck might just get your throat cut/ This a matte truck, not a black truck/ When we move tell 'em, "Back up," click c-clack, duck/ Hella bands, pull up, stashed up super facts up," she raps before getting to the controversial line about the first lady of civil rights. "All you b*tches Rosa Parks, uh-oh, get your a** up."

While TMZ published an article claiming "Nicki was NOT in any way, shape or form attempting to diss the great Mrs. Parks -- she was just using her in what she thought was a clever metaphor aimed at her haters," the 37-year-old rapper took to her Instagram Story on Wednesday (February 5) to dispute the report.

"Never said this," Nicki captioned a screenshot of a headline that read, "Nicki Minaj Says Rosa Parks LyricsWas 'Bad Timing:' Not Meant To Offend Or Disrespect Parks." She added, "Had no clue anyone was mad. Don't care. #Yikes."
