50 Cent Reacts To Lil Nas X’s Nicki Minaj Costume

Lil Nas X’s past as a Barb is something that he tried to hide in the past. For a while, he denied that he ran an incredibly popular Nicki Minaj stan account on Twitter. Only as of recent has he embraced his past by slightly poking fun at the previous account he used to hold.

For Halloween 2020, he decided to fully own up to it and give credit where credit is due. He dressed up as Nicki for Halloween, recreating the rap Queen’s outfit from the “Superbass” video shoot. The costume wasn’t simply a quick get-up that he put on, similar to his Cam’ron get up in 2019. He pulled out the prosthetics to match Nicki’s curves, captioning the photo, “NAS MARAJ.” Though Halloween isn’t done just yet, Lil Nas X’s dedication should have him at the top of plenty of “Best Costume” lists of 2020. He’s damn-near unidentifiable.

The elaborate get-up received praise from plenty of people, though others were a bit less reluctant to embrace the look. 50 Cent, for example, shared Lil Nas X’s flicks to his Twitter account, captioning the photo, “what the fuck, Nikki come get him !!! Lol.”

Lil Nas X quickly responded to Fif while simultaneously poking fun at himself. “why u in barb business?” He asked in response to 50 Cent’s tweet.

This isn’t the first time Lil Nas X became a talking point for 50 Cent, though the “Old Town Road” artist has never really issued a response. After Lil Nas X came out as gay, Fif seemingly used this in an attempt to berate former G-Unit member and current rival, Young Buck. The “Rodeo” singer and the “Shorty Wanna Ride” rapper posed for a quick picture last year. 50 Cent later reposted it while taking homophobic jabs at Buck over an alleged relationship with a transgender woman.

NNORDY steps into jazz fusion with latest release “Wrong Turn”

NNORDY’s latest release, “Wrong Turn” is a fully live jazz fusion album that showcases the limitless possibilities of instrumental storytelling with the remarkable chemistry between guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums. The song has no words but is an excellent story told through musicianship and sets the stage for listeners to embark on a rich jazz experience.

“Wrong Turn” shows the strength of live performance from the get-go. Each instrument feels alive and in conversation with the others, a dynamic dialogue that develops organically over the course of the piece. Without vocal guidance, each musical phrase is left to speak for itself, giving the listener the freedom to interpret the track in their own way.

The guitar and keyboards often lead, crafting complex melodic lines and textures that give the music direction and atmosphere. Meanwhile, the bass and drums lay down a solid rhythmic base, creating movement and momentum while still leaving a lot of room for exploration. NNORDY creates a track that both dedicated jazz fans and listeners looking for something adventurous and fresh will enjoy. “Wrong Turn” shows that instrumental music can be as expressive and compelling as vocal music.
