Nicki Minaj may have won the inaugural Game-Changer award at BBWomenInMusic ceremony, but she didn't want the night to be about her
After accepting the game-changer award, the rapper honored the young talent, calling him a"kindred spirit" who was passionate about those he loved and the music he was making, and expressed regret for not doing"something to help."
She recalled a moment while touring with the late rapper, while they were walking to the stage one day. "He held my hand and told me to stay calm and pray. I was shocked that he told me that, but right there in that moment, I did feel calm and wondered, 'Hm, what am I actually worried about?'" "I know this is a Women in Music night, and I'm honored to be in the presence of all these women," she continued. "But it doesn't feel comfortable to talk about me when someone so important to our culture died."
