Amber Rose Says She Put Nicki Minaj On Kanye West’s Song ‘Monster’

Amber Rose Claims She Put Nicki Minaj On Kanye West’s Song ‘Monster’

Kanye West‘s ex girlfriend Amber Rose maintains that she told Ye to put Nicki Minaj on Monster, which solidified Nicki’s place in mainstream rap.

On Tuesday (July 19), Amber Rose was a guest on Van Lathan and Rachel Lindsay’s Higher Learning podcast promoting her new rap single “GYHO.” During the sit-down, Amber spoke about her ear for talent.

“I have a good ear. I’ve A&R’d a bunch of amazing projects,” she told the hosts around the 54:40-mark of the interview. When asked some specific names she added, “All my boyfriends. All of them,” which include Kanye West, Wiz Khalifa and 21 Savage.

She then confirmed her insistence is the reason Nicki Minaj ended up on “Monster.” “I put Nicki on ‘Monster.’ [Kanye] didn’t know who Nicki was back then,” Rose continued. “I had Nicki pull up to the studio and I put her on ‘Monster,” she told the Higher Learning podcast hosts.

“She was still coming up. And I saw her in the studio and I said, ‘Oh my f-cking God, this bitch is talented as hell.’ And then I went back to Kanye and was like, ‘You need to get this girl Nicki on ‘Monster.” He was like, ‘Who? What? No.’”

Kanye met with Nicki and she recorded a verse. She says Ye almost pulled her verse from the album because it was too good.

“He told me that the same day. He was like, ‘How the f-ck did you bring in a bitch that killed me on my own song?’” he allegedly told Amber.
