Nicki Minaj is speaking out about the backlash over her acceptance speech at Sunday’s BET Awards. As she accepted her fifth award for Best Female Hip Hop artist, Nicki emphasized that she takes part in writing all her songs, leading some to believe she was taking a shot at fellow nominee Iggy Azalea.

Furthermore, the “Queen Barb” points out that she’s publicly congratulated Iggy on the success of her hit song “Fancy,” adding “she should be very proud of that.” Nicki also praised fellow female songwriters Lauryn Hill and Missy Elliott for their inspiration.
