Nicki Minaj Peter Rosenberg

Nicki Minaj Peter Rosenberg,Pink-haired diva Nicki Minaj was headlining the Hot 97′s Summer Jam music festival in East Rutherford, N.J. — that is, until radio host Peter Rosenberg slammed this song as "wack" and Minaj's record label's president, Lil Wayne, pulled her off the festival's lineup  The beef escalated after Minaj's exit in an explosive on-air call between DJ Funkmaster Flex and Minaj, in which both parties lashed out at each other Nicki Minaj's feud with DJ Peter Rosenberg seems to get even bitter. After the Harajuku Barbie explained the reason why she bailed out of the Hot 97's Summer Jam 2012, Rosenberg quickly responded to her statement by claiming that he was unapologetic about his diss toward the "Super Bass" raptress.
"Regardless of whether the time was good or not, the fact that she then pulled out and Young Money pulled out, means I will never apologize for that. Never," so the DJ told Rap Radar in an interview. The radio personality additionally claimed that he never insulted Minaj but he only gave his opinion about her song.
"I need it to be clear - I gave an opinion on a song," the DJ defended his blatant comments at the New York fest last Sunday, June 3. "And Nicki Minaj and [her label] Young Money decided to skip Summer Jam. Because of an opinion, not a personal attack, nothing derogatory because she's a woman."
During the interview,

 
Rosenbeg once again called Minaj's song "Starship" a "girly-a** dance-pop" and suggested that the femcee's camp were overreacting. "That's why music is so mediocre nowadays, because no one can give opinions," he claimed.
"If you give an opinion, cats hate you, their crew skips your concert, they diss you on Twitter, their boyfriends threaten to punch you in the face," said Rosenberg, referencing to Minaj's boyfriend Safaree "SB" Samuels who threatened to punch the DJ at Summer Jam.
Rosenberg went on stating, "Nicki's boyfriend went on Twitter and said he was going to punch me in the face because I don't like a pop dance song that his girlfriend made." He added, "My fans - and by that I mean, not fans of me, fans of real hip-hop, appreciated what I said..."
"The world is not just Barbz. The world is not just 16-year-old girls," he continued. "There are a lot of people out there who feel that they don't like music like that. Not all of her music, the song that I specifically referenced. She's had a lot of good moments. 'Starship' ain't one of them, and it represents the opposite of real hip-hop."
Previously, the "Your Love" hitmaker talked to Funk Master Flex, explaining that her fans "didn't appreciate his [Peter Rosenberg] comments." She insisted, "It's not about his opinion, because I have opinions about DJS at Hot 97 and hot 97. I wouldn't dare come on your stage leading put that concur."
"Everybody is grown enough to keep their opinions to their self. When you disrespect Nicki Minaj, you're disrespecting my fans. Don't make those three million people...that their inferior for their personal taste in music," so the 29-year-old rapper stated.
The beef started when Rosenberg criticized Minaj's song at the Summer Jam. "I know there are some chicks in here waiting to sing along with 'Starship' later. I'm not talking to y'all now. F*** that bulls***. I'm here to talk about real hip-hop s***," so he told the crowd that time.

Words are, after the incident, Minaj also boycotted next year's edition of the festival. According to TMZ, Hot 97 wanted to have the Trinidadian-born raptress as a performer for the 2013 gig. However, when the Young Money first lady heard about it, she reportedly refused.
Nicki says Peter Rosenberg should’ve thought twice before attacking the only woman on the Summer Jam 2012 bill. She says the whole Summer Jam 2012 incident taught her to value herself. She used the example, if you hear men dissing and making fun of you — you’re not going to still walk into a room
Nicki concluded the interview by saying, ‘what she don’t do is perform at a place where PEOPLE don’t RESPECT her!’
If you haven’t been following the drama surrounding Nicki Minaj’s beef with New York’s Hot 97, basically what happened was Hot 97 morning show host Peter Rosenberg took the mic during a pre-Summer Jam festival and sh*t on Nicki Minaj’s single “Starship”, saying:
“I know there’s some chicks here waiting to sing ‘Starships’ later, I’m not talking to y’all right now. F*ck that bullsh*t. I’m here to talk about real hip-hop sh*t.”
Nicki Minaj, and her boss Lil Wayne took offense to Rosenberg’s comment.
Wayne, who was already feeling some kind of way after being dissed by the Oklahoma City Thunder NBA team, took to his Twitter page to complain bitterly about Rosenberg’s insult.
This is what happens when celebrities bite the hands that feed them. Once rappers reach a certain plateau in their careers, they get amnesia and they forget that the big market radio stations  are responsible for their careers.
When no apologies were forthcoming from Rosenberg or Hot 97 — Nicki Minaj pulled out of the HOT 97 Summer Jam.
Wayne (who was set to make a surprise appearance that night) and other YMCMB artists, DJ Khaled, Busta Rhymes, and Ace Hood, also pulled out of the concert.
But the beef didn’t stop there. Hot 97′s biggest competitor, Power 105.1 got in on the act by taking sides with Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj.
Host Angela Yee said: “Common sense would say ‘ok this is our star for the evening, we actually hired her because she can sell the tickets, so let me not get on stage and diss her.’”
Yee’s co-host, DJ Envy, added: “Lil Wayne made the perfect decision; I would’ve pulled her a long time ago. They belittle women, and lets be serious they’re the number 8th morning show in the market. The Donkey of The Day this morning goes to Hot 97 as a crew, as a staff, and as a motherf*cking label.”
As the drama intensified all over the blogosphere Monday, Nicki called into Funkmaster Flex’s show on Hot 97 to plead her case. CLICK to hear that audio.
After all was said and done, Hot 97 still refused to back down or to apologize to Nicki or Wayne.
Reigning Queen of Hip Hop Nicki Minaj got dissed by the usually fun-loving New York DJ and "Hip Hop Squares" host Peter Rosenberg and like an episode of "Game of Thrones," we're seeing it's never good to take on the Queen. On Sunday, the morning show host told the crowd outside Met Life Stadium, "I know there's some chicks here waiting to sing 'Starships' later, I'm not talking to y'all right now. F--- that bullsh--. I'm here to talk about real hip-hop sh--."

Young Money chief Lil Wayne quickly heard the verbal slight and tweeted a simple response: "Young Money ain't doing summer jam." A few hours before her planned set, Minaj promised on Twitter that history would be made. But after Lil Wayne made his executive decision, Minaj went along with it. As our colleagues at RapFix pointed out, he didn't just punish the jam by taking out Nicki: DJ Khaled, Busta Rhymes, Ace Hood and even Lil Wayne himself, who was expected to make a guest appearance, all bailed. Meanwhile, Minaj told Hot 97 she has no problem if someone doesn't like her, it's just that he shouldn't be calling her out before her headlining set that his station invited her to.

It may not have been the best response, but it sure as hell guarantees nobody will cross Lil Wayne and Young Money again. That said -- after getting super cranky about not getting to see the Oklahoma City Thunder in person, you'd think he'd have some sympathy for all the ticketholders who were at Summer Jam to see Minaj and the Young Money crew. Stars, they're just like us!
