Nicki Minaj has received a lengthy apology from Shannon Sharpe after she dissed him on new Lil Wayne collaboration “Banned from NO”.
On the track, the Trinidad born rapper spat: “‘Bout to cop you slides, all you do is flip-flop / If I send a pic of Shannon, you ain’t that Sharpe.”
The line appeared to be a barb about the NFL legend turned media star commenting “Nicki who?” when a fan told him she wanted to appear on his Club Shay Shay podcast.
In a new episode of his Nightcap show, Sharpe apologized to Minaj and attended to explain the comment as a misunderstanding.
He said: “I used to go back and forth with people. I was talking about Nikki Haley. Nikki Haley said it’s really great for everybody of Black America, and I was like … ‘When has it ever been great?’”
harpe continued: “Nicki, I was not trying to be disrespectful. Of course I know who you are. I would be remiss to say that I thought you knew who I was, or that you knew anything about Club Shay Shay. I’m not that arrogant.
“Nicki, I apologize. I meant no disrespect. You’ll always have an open invitation if you ever want to come sit down and have a conversation. Even if you just want to have a private conversation on the phone or something. It won’t go any further between you and I.”
