Celebrity feuds are like Hollywood’s favorite soap operas, filled with drama, twists, and unexpected plotlines. The entertainment industry has seen its fair share of clashes. But in the world of hip-hop, the latest showdown between Soulja Boy and J. Cole took a surprising turn, all thanks to the one and only Nicki Minaj and Twitter.
It all started when J. Cole, in a candid moment on the A Safe Place podcast, revealed his initial resistance to certain elements of hip-hop, including Soulja Boy’s music. Cole’s honest confession led to a fiery exchange as Soulja Boy took offense, venting his frustrations on social media and Instagram Live. He even mocked Cole for his age, his 360 deal, and his career trajectory compared to his own. Soulja Boy didn’t mince words, launching a profanity-laced tirade against the rapper.
He started on Twitter saying, “Pussy nigga I wrote and produced a #1 record at 17 in 2006 drake just gave you your first #1 this year sit the fuck down nigga u not all that @JColeNC u don’t got a #1 solo record I do.”

Nicki Minaj, known for her own share of feuds in the industry, decided to intervene. She joined Soulja Boy on Instagram Live to address their own alleged falling out, and during their conversation, she made it clear to Soulja Boy that he had misunderstood J. Cole’s comments. According to Nicki, Cole had actually praised Soulja Boy and acknowledged his contribution to the hip-hop scene. Soulja Boy, in a surprising turn of events, immediately took Nicki’s advice to heart and publicly apologized to J. Cole.
In a tweet, Soulja Boy expressed his change of heart, admitting that he had misinterpreted Cole’s words and that Cole was actually showing him love.
“My bad dawg. @JColeNC sorry for the confusion. keep doing your shit we from two different worlds. I stand on what I stand on, it’s hard coming from where I did man. I dealt with a lot of hate my whole career so it was just messed to think it would come from you.”
