“So many of you guys didn’t f*cking feel loved and nurtured at the most important time in your lives,” Minaj said to Joe Budden.

Minaj went on to explain that, through raising a young son of her own, she’s come to realize that the grown men in her life need to receive the same kind of nurturing love that she provides Papa Bear with. “A lot of time, especially Black men, they’re not even allowed to show their emotions.”
“They get told, oh you gotta man up, and you gotta do this and you gotta do that. You gotta be the man of the house before you even… You know what I’m saying? A lot of times, the man needs to be treated like that, ladies! You know how we nurture our sons and our children, and we just adore them and kiss on them? They want that, they need that too. So, I just wanna make sure that I let Black men know for the rest of their lives – I love you, and we need you.”
As her chat with Budden continued, Minaj confirmed that she wouldn’t let a “couple idiots” posting stuff online ruin her impression of all Black men.
