Chanel West Coast Says Nicki Minaj Is The Reason Her Young Money Deal Didn’t Work Out

Chanel West Coast parted ways with Young Money after being personally introduced to the crew by Lil Wayne. The Ridiculousness star stayed with Young Money under a management deal for a bit before parting ways from the label.

It’s been long rumored that Nicki Minaj didn’t want her involved with the business, which CWC confirmed during a 2019 interview.

However, during her latest sit-down conversation with Shirley Ju for Shirley’s Temple, Chanel briefly spoke about what happened, affirming that Nicki was indeed the reason behind her leaving Young Money.

“It didn’t work out because, basically, it was more because of certain people really not feeling me being part of the clique.” The interviewer mentioned Nicki Minaj’s name and Chanel confirmed that she was speaking about her.

“Yeah, yeah, it was that,” she said. “But I don’t really wanna talk about that because it’s really old. I’m really grateful that Wayne fucked with me and gave me a co-sign and was like, be part of my clique, but yeah, I can’t control what happened. So many different politics that people don’t know behind the scenes.”

Chanel says that she really wanted to work further with Lil Wayne, revealing that her dog’s name is actually Weezy. However, things just didn’t work out in the end. Her response to the situation shows maturity and the ability to move on.
