The ever-controversial Banks took to her social media channels this afternoon to fire various shots at Minaj after she shared a preview of the upcoming "Bed" video showing her dressed as a mermaid.
This then led Banks to fire off a now-deleted Instagram post of Minaj's mermaid photo with the caption: "Chicken of the sea sis. Stay in your own lane. @nickiminaj lol you running out of ideas girl."
We assume this is due to Banks also appearing as a mermaid on the illustrated cover to her 2012 mixtape Fantasea, and since obviously only one rapper can ever be depicted as a mermaid, she has accused Minaj of stealing the concept.
Banks then followed this up with a long string of anti-Minaj tweets, several of which you can find below.
Why does nicki Minaj have to be so damn corny . Like sometimes it's just like sis !!!!! Find some art !!! Please !! Lol

Shit even cardi outshined her ass this year. The truth of the matter is that the nicki Minaj reign is up. I saved her from iggy but she didn't follow through on the plan to save her from cardi. Now cardi is going to eat her alive and there's nothing I can do. I'm done with her https://t.co/CdqkcSEMh7

Minaj will drop her latest album Queen on August 10, and we can presumably expect its mermaid-friendly video for the record's "Bed" single soon.
