A lot of People on Social Media donāt have the FULL picture nor understand what exactly happened between Nicki Minaj, Mulatto, & The Recording Academy. Nicki Minajās beef is, was, and will always be with the Grammyās and their shady practices. This is how it was spun to the public: Long story short due to Whitney Houstonās Untimely Passing on February 12th 2012, the same day as the 54th Annual Grammy awards; the Grammy producers didnāt want Nicki to perform for this outlined reason despite having already watched the performance, approved the set, & song (Roman Holiday) before hand. The performance was meant to be a parody of the movie āThe Exorcismā.
