Nicki Minaj Cancels Upcoming Album Amid Threat to Her $20M Mansion Over Unpaid Judgment

 

Nicki Minaj shocked fans by abruptly canceling her highly anticipated 2026 album, declaring she's quitting music in a fiery social media post that tagged and appeared to blame Jay-Z. The dramatic move comes amid escalating personal and legal troubles, including a $20 million Los Angeles mansion facing a looming threat of forced sale to satisfy an unpaid court judgment. The rapper explicitly called out industry figures, tweeting: "Ok I’m not going to put out the album anymore. No more music. Hope you’re happy now @sc. Bye, Barbz. Love you for life.

The decision by the self-proclaimed "Queen of Rap" to cancel her 2026 album is the culmination of weeks of online tension where she alleged that industry insiders were deliberately sabotaging her music. This recent fallout has also reignited her long-standing grievances with Jay-Z's Roc Nation, specifically over claims she was shortchanged on her stake in the streaming platform, Tidal.

This escalating drama coincides with a severe legal threat: Minaj's $20 million Hidden Hills mansion is now at risk of forced sale. Court documents show that she and her husband, Kenneth Petty, have failed to pay a $503,318 judgment owed to former security chief Thomas Weidenmüller, whom Petty allegedly assaulted in 2019. Weidenmüller's lawyers are pushing for a court order to sell the property, arguing its estimated $6 million in equity is sufficient to settle the debt.

The combination of a canceled album, her intensified feud with Jay-Z, a renewed online spat with Cardi B, and the looming loss of her home marks one of the most tumultuous periods of Nicki Minaj's career.
