Janelle Monáe, fresh from performing at this year’s Grammy Awards, isn’t one to be shy from speaking their mind. At a Grammys after-party event, Janelle Monáe delivered some shots in the direction of Nelly after the St. Louis rapper performed at President Donald Trump’s inauguration.
As reported by TMZ, Janelle Monáe linked up with Anderson .Paak, who won a Grammy Award alongside his NxWorries partner Knxwledge, at his West Hollywood club, Andys. In a clip obtained by the outfit, the always dazzling Monáe gets into a quick freestyle making quick work of Nelly for aligning himself with Trump.
From TMZ:
Janelle dropped some bars, “I used to like Nelly … but then he performed for Donald Trump. “F**k that [n word.] I don’t give a f**k … Nelly, you sold out. I used to think he was cool … F**k you [n word.] Get a new attitude.”
Monáe and .Paak jammed over a number of tunes, including Nelly’s “Hot In Herre” hit. No word yet if Nelly is going to respond to the jabs but he’s already stated that he’s comfortable with his position.
