On the Monday August 20th episode of #EverydayStruggle, DJ Akademiks, Nadeska and Wayno talk about Nicki Minaj’s public meltdown over her ‘Queen’ album sales. Despite her big promo run, the album moved approximately 185,000 copies in its first week, which means that Travis Scott keeps the #1 spot for a second week in a row with another 205K copies of ‘Astroworld.’ In response, Nicki Minaj accused Akademiks of spreading ‘fake news,’ and attacked Spotify, Drake, Pitchfork and media in general for being out to get her. Is Nicki having a full meltdown over the numbers? Meanwhile, Young Thug finally dropped ‘Slime Language,’ Kodak Black is home from jail, Drake is still taking shots at Kanye West and Tay-K has been put in solitary confinement behind bars.

Beyonce please call nicki and tell her to STOP this nonsense it's a bad look
1) She has lost a lot of likability because of some of how she has used her connections to get other people banned.
2) This albums sounds okay but it doesn’t feel like 2018 or futuristic to any degree. Co-sign whoever has already made these points.
3) there were no trap beats. The sounds don’t sound todayish at all.
4) she needs to write from the perspective of an underdog not a queen.
5) she has accomplished a lot and is great but needs a rebrand

Queen, Astroworld, and Slime Language are all trash. Don't @ me.
If Queen was a good album like 7/10 at least but it's not
why does the video quality looks goofy ever since joe left?
I thought Barter 6 was Thug’s album?! 🤔
Drake is the goat…..nicki is Salt
13:01 Wayno is right if nickis album was a 10/10 atleast a 8/10 we wouldn’t give a fuck about numbers we’d actually be pissed but the shit WASNT good it was below average and that’s why Nicki is bitching about numbers and not the damn music
There were no "OG's" around Tay K… Mostly niggas that were his age pretending to be what he was.
The album is just trash overall, she made that "Little Rappers" song or whatever thinking it was gonna get hella hype. #TryAgain
EDS is dead but had to watch this episode to see Akademiks reaction
