Kodak Black and Nicki Minaj are getting blasted by fans for blaming PnB Rock’s girlfriend for his shooting death in Los Angeles on Monday, Sept. 12, 2022.
Even rap queen Cardi B came out and slammed all the people who are pointing the finger at PnB Rock’s girlfriend, Steph, for posting this photo of the two of them eating at Roscoe’s House of Chicken & Waffles shortly before he was gunned down in a robbery attempt.
On Monday evening, Kodak suggested that the girlfriend needed to take her own life for posting where she and PnB were eating prior to the gunfire.
Nicki Minaj also had some strong words for those who orbit the rappers’ worlds and like to flex to their friends the places they are visiting.
After Pop Smoke there’s no way we as rappers or our loved ones are still posting locations to our whereabouts. To show waffles & some fried chicken????! He was such a pleasure to work with. Condolences to his mom & family. This makes me feel so sick. Jesus. #SIP #PnbRock 🕊

Fans ripped into Minaj for placing the blame for the murder on the girlfriend who is already traumatized by witnessing the shooting and her boyfriend’s eventual death.
To say this knowing your fan base is going to go after that girl is very irresponsible. It wasn’t smart but I’m sure her intention was not for him to be harmed and she probably feels bad enough as is smh

So you as a public figure just gone add to the Train of Blame. Like any fan couldn’t of posted him, not knowing for a fact if the killer ever saw her story. That girl is traumatized and going through enough and people with your energy aren’t helping at all

Cardi B countered Nicki and Kodak’s sentiments sharply. Cardi said it is “irresponsible” and “inconsiderate” to make PnB’s girlfriend the target of so much hate when they should be comforting her after her tragic loss.
I highly doubt nikkas was looking at PMB’s babymom IG. He was in a bad location and people stay outside plotting. It’s very irresponsible and inconsiderate to blame her for something so tragic. We should be sending nothing but love to her and his family at this time.
