Nicki Minaj has announced she is retiring.

The rapper made the sudden announcement this afternoon. Her tweet reads: "I've decided to retire & have my family. I know you guys are happy now. To my fans, keep reppin me, do it til da death of me. X in the box cus ain't nobody checking me. Love you for LIFE." As fans will notice, that tweet signs off with a quote from her verse from Alicia Keys' 2012 single "Girl on Fire."

Of course, it's hard to tell how serious Minaj actually is. After all, premature retirement announcements in the hip-hop world are all too common. So we'll just have to wait and see.

Just the other day, Minaj appeared on Megan Thee Stallion's video for "Hot Girl Summer."
