Nicki Minaj’s latest video has caused quite a stir, to say the least. Is the video self defeating? Is the old Nicki back? Are we all supposed to unfollow her on Instagram? None of the answers to those questions are important. What is important is how Hip-Hop reacts. Well, today we get its first response.

New York’s Chewy Garcia wants to shift your attention, not deflect it, to the women who could be just as guilty as the men Nicki targets. We’re not trying to say one sex is more innocent than the other but you always have to look at both sides of the story. His Fat Kid Rules The World is on its way, courtesy of Scholarich. And mad props to Scholarich’s founder, Kamau Harper, for making it to MSNBC’s The Grio Top 100 People of 2013.
