In follow-up tweets, she made it abundantly clear whom she was addressing in her tweets. She retweeted a person who suggested that Roc Nation, who is in a long-term partnership with the NFL as the league’s official live music entertainment strategists, will appear in the search results for everything on X, formerly Twitter.

“Yup. Everyone’s aware. Clearly they don’t care. So why should I? What ima do Chi?” she continued. “Tried to tell y’all but y’all wanted brunch LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO I’M ON A FKNG ROLL. WAIT. HACKED. HACKED.”

She followed up by accusing the music industry of “playing dumb.” She added, ‘Y’all know his next move is going to be to tell y’all a ‘certain someone’ is being treated soooooo unfairly so that y’all can go back into that trance. … Go & enjoy your fkng money b4 it’s too late.”
