Nicki Minaj went off on a reporter on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday after he asked her a question about "unity." She had been speaking with DTLR radio host Fadam Got Da Juice when she argued that everyone will always have disagreements with one another. “Do we have unity amongst human beings? Like, if its eight billion people in the world, imagine thinking all eight billion people gon’ get along with each other,” Minaj explained. “I used to be a waitress. It was a bunch of people not getting along in there. I mean, no matter where you go, you’re going to be at odds with people. I think the point, though, is when you get to a place where nothing around you affects what’s inside of you.”

When Elliott Wilson congratulated him on landing the interview, he wrote back: "She ducked the smoke on the question man. I had to take the shot though." Minaj eventually caught a repost of the comment online and wrote in response: "The obsession. Only thing I ducked was his fkng breath. Smelled like a double portion of 4 wings & some french fries hot ASS & ketchup n****."

When The Shade Room shared the back-and-forth on Instagram, many of Minaj's fans came to her defense. "He asked a question she answered it. He then tried to be funny on the internet and she came back funnier. Play stupid games win stupid prizes," one user wrote. Another added: "How did she duck the question? I’m just starting to believe ppl brain just shut off every 5 secs. Lol. How yall not keeping up?"

English Teacher‘s debut album ‘This Could Be Texas‘ has re-entered the UK Top 40 following their Mercury Prize win.

The Leeds four-piece recently snagged the prestigious music prize at the ceremony held earlier this month at Abbey Road Studios.

They warded off competition from the likes of Charli XCXCMATGhettsThe Last Dinner PartyCorinne Bailey RaeBeth GibbonsBarry Can’t Swim and more with their debut album, ‘This Could Be Texas’.

Now, UK record labels association the BPI has reported an increased demand for the record. The BPI (which also organises the Mercury Prize) claimed that ‘This Could Be Texas’ gained a 1,073 per cent increase in sales in the week after the ceremony – its best chart performance since it was released in April this year.

Other albums by Mercury Prize nominees BERWYN, Corinne Bailey Rae and corto.alto also saw sales increases of over 100 per cent.

NME spoke to the band shortly after their win, where they said they would “continue to be honest” about their struggles as a band.

“It was never a conscious [choice] to be like ‘We’re going to be one of those bands that does that’,” frontwoman Lily Fontaine explained. “It’s just that when we get asked questions about those things, we’re always going to be honest. If we continue to be put in situations where we’re asked about that, we will continue to be honest about it.”

NME also spoke to the band for The Cover, where they hinted at their debut album and what was to come: “I feel like the next set of songs will truly reflect where we are now,” guitarist Lewis Whiting shared. “We don’t want to sit within one sound; there’s some huge-sounding ballads coming up. We’ve got a point to prove.”

We also reviewed their debut, awarding it a full five stars: “What you have in ‘This Could Be Texas’ is everything you want from a debut; a truly original effort from start to finish, an adventure in sound and words, and a landmark statement. Poised for big things? Who knows if this industry even allows that anymore. Here are a band already dealing in brilliance, though – who dare to dream and have it pay off.

“Not everyone gets to go to space, but at least English Teacher make it a damn site more interesting being stuck down here.”
