Nicki Minaj and Big Sean reunited on stage during the “Big Foot” rapper’s Pink Friday 2 Tour stop in Detroit.
During Nicki’s stop in the Motor City, she invited Detroit’s favorite son to perform their smash 2011 collaboration “Dance (A$$).”
The song originally appeared on the “Precision” rapper’s album Finally Famous.
Despite the excitement in Detroit, Nicki faced some Pink Friday 2 Tour issues just days earlier.
She said the reason she was able to enter Canada was because of its most famous resident: her old friend Drake.
The Young Money rapper was almost three hours late for her concert in Montreal when her tour traveled north of the border.
Nicki blamed a series of flight delays on a “sabotage” attempt that she theorized was tied to authorities looking for her husband, Kenneth Petty, who had only been granted permission to travel internationally the day prior.
Minaj elaborated on the situation, thanking Drake for coming to her rescue.
“Drizzy he made a couple calls for me,” she wrote on her Instagram Stories.
Drake himself appeared in the audience at Nicki’s show in Toronto that same night, with the Pink Friday 2 star shouting him out from the stage.
Nicki Minaj’s explanation for her border issues were originally laid out in a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter).
“Yesterday my flight scheduled for midnight shut their plane down @ 12:58pm. Never in 15 years have I heard of anything like that. A 70K G4 and thought we were going to PAY THEM for that flight as well as whatever flight I’d have to get on next. They thought wrong,” she wrote.
“Today, we asked if we could leave at 1pm. They said no, we could leave at 3pm. Then they said that won’t work, we’d need to leave at 5pm. ?!?!!!!! Yup. For a 930pm show in Canada. When we got to the plane, they then said they were ‘STILL FUELING’. At 630pm, they said they were ‘still fueling’ (for an hour & a half flight).”
Nicki then accused the delays of being part of a conspiracy to hinder her tour: “When we did get to Canada, they did a bunch of stuff they didn’t do the last 2 times I came for the OVO FEST. They started searching through my personal purses. Usually they take me to the car with my purses & check the bigger luggage.
“Nope. Not this time. They know I have a show, they know we’re 20 mins away. They know we don’t have a police escort. The sabotage be real but GOD IS REALER. They wanted the show to be cancelled but GOD!!!!! Bwahahaaaaaaaa #GagCityMONTREAL #SoldOutMINAJ HEAUX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
