What happened between Stefflon Don and Nicki Minaj? Beef explored as former issues apology over clash with fans

In an exclusive conversation with the host from GRM Daily, British artist Stefflon Don opened up about the alleged beef with Nicki Minaj and expressed her apologies over the same. Back in 2018, Don reportedly got hateful comments from Nicki's fanbase, after she expressed her views on the beef between Nicki and Cardi B.

In the video released on July 4, 2024, on GRM Daily's YouTube, Don said,

"I was like I'm not leaving it no more, so then me and the fans started arguing, and then as they're arguing, they're throwing her (Nicki) name around... As I'm defending myself, I'm also bringing her name into it, and it wasn't really about that."

The rapper added:

"So, it was my bad for like putting a name in it cuz they kept flinging around 'oh Nicki's this, Nicki's that you ain't...' It was just that I didn't even know it was going to get that big..."
