Nicki Minaj has broken her silence on what she describes as ongoing spiritual warfare within the music industry, claiming that unnamed but influential figures have been behind many of the challenges she and other talented artists have faced throughout their careers.

Speaking during an episode of a podcast hosted by evangelist Bryce Crawford, Minaj reflected on the personal toll of refusing to play by the rules set by those at the top of the industry, describing her experience as one of relentless spiritual warfare.

She said she wished she had understood sooner just how spiritual an experience the music industry could be, remarking that she felt as though she had brought a knife to a gunfight.

She went further, alleging that powerful figures within the industry treat musicians as property and as assets to be monetised, and that they actively work to undermine those who refuse to conform.

When asked directly whether she believed the Illuminati was real, Minaj stopped short of confirming the idea but did not dismiss it either.

She said her situation felt deeply personal, explaining that while she believes a group of people has made things difficult for her, she could not say with certainty whether they belonged to the Illuminati or some other entity, adding that she had never viewed her struggles as the work of an entire secret society against her, though she acknowledged it remained a possibility.
