Minaj Fires Manager
By WENNFriday, April 9, 2010
LIL WAYNE’s rap protegee NICKI MINAJ has fired her manager after three years together.
The hip-hop star terminated her working relationship with Debbie Antney, boss of Mizay Entertainment, in a brief letter earlier this month (Apr10), although the reason for her dismissal has not been revealed.
Antney was then served with a cease-and-desist notice, banning her from conducting any business on Minaj’s behalf.
She tells Hip Hop Weekly magazine, “I received a letter, which was (a) suspension. The next letter that came in was a cease and desist in doing all business with Nicki Minaj from Nicki’s attorney.”
But the manager, mother of rising rapper Wacka Flocka Flame, insists she has no hard feelings towards the Young Money group member.
She adds, “I love Nicki. I wish her the most success. It’s not about the music, she’s like one of my children… I wish her no harm, only much success.”
The news comes just days after Minaj pulled out of a planned tour with Rihanna and Ke$ha.
