Minaj: 'I get along with female rappers'

Nicki Minaj has insisted that she gets along well with her fellow female rappers.

In an interview with Perez Hilton, the 24-year-old expressed frustration with the idea that women in hip-hop are automatically assumed to be enemies.

"There are many female rappers that I get along with," she said.

"There have been so many female rappers that have congratulated me and given me genuine love, from Trina, who is my darling, to Missy Elliott to Queen Latifah to Foxy Brown to Remy Ma. It goes on and on, and that's what people don't understand."

She continued: "People think that I'm the 'hated female rapper'. But a lot of the girls have shown me a lot of love and behind the scenes have said, 'Congratulations, keep up the good work.' Can't we all just get along?"
