Ever notice how when Mercury decides to throw one of its classic retrograde tantrums, suddenly even the biggest stars get tangled in a drama web thicker than a Kardashian’s contour? Well, buckle up — because the latest tea swirling around Nicki Minaj and producer Punch might just be the cosmic chaos in action. It all apparently kicked off back in 2020, when Nicki supposedly hit up Punch for a SZA feature. But like a bad date ghosting mid-convo, things went cold fast. Punch says he passed the message along about SZA being deep in “album mode,” and then… crickets. The feature never happened, and now he’s left in the lurch, mid-dragons and all. Meanwhile, Nicki’s radio silence could either mean she’s brewing something big or just dodging the whole mess — your guess is as good as mine! Astrology aside, when your creative stars don’t align, does it all just fizzle or is there more smoke here than a barbecue gone wrong? LEARN MORE

When The Breakfast Club host Loren Lorosa asked him about the origins of the drama, Punch claimed everything began in 2020 when Nicki allegedly contacted him for a SZA feature. Loren said, “He responded and told Nicki Minaj that SZA was in album mode heavy and that he would get it over to her, and that was it. They never spoke again. [The] feature didn’t happen, but he says he’s lost after that as well.” So far, Nicki hasn’t publicly responded to his claims, but we’ve reached out for comment.
