“This is Amsterdam btw, where weed is legal,” she added.
“They’ve been trying everything they possibly can to TRY to stop this tour,” another post read.

“They try to make me book another jet every time. All b/c I fired mngmnt who I found out for years were adding on 30-50K on my jet & pocketing it. I fired a tour mngr recently who was doing the same thing & mad he got the boot. Their goal is to make me late, & to pocket 40K,” Minaj posted.
“They didn’t know I was planning for them just like they were planning for me. Me filming every single thing made them really mad,” she wrote.
“They’re trying to keep me from MANCHESTER,” she posted, referencing a scheduled concert in Manchester Saturday night.
