What did Trick Daddy say about Beyoncé and Jay-Z?
Trick Daddy came under fire by Queen B fans after his remarks about Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s careers.
“Beyoncé ain’t trying to give back to music, and Beyoncé don’t write music,” Trick Daddy said on the Clubhouse app before adding, “Beyoncé can’t sing.”
“Man, I watched my godmama train Beyoncé, vocal lessons all her career,” he said.
“I’mma give an unpopular opinion right now: Beyoncé is to R&B what Jay-Z is to New York. That’s why they together,” Trick Daddy added.

“Jay-Z ain’t never won the greatest rapper alive. Whoever put him on a level like that?”
The rapper suggested that Jay-Z is only successful because New Yorkers wanted a big hip-hop star after Biggie Smalls was murdered, adding, “New York lost Biggie and they needed a hero.”
“New York lost [Biggie], they needed a hero because they wanted to be the Mecca of hip-hop. They just handed it over to Jay-Z.”
Has Trina responded to Trick Daddy’s comments?
As Queen B’s Bey-Hive’s ripped Trick Daddy on social media, Trina officially distanced herself from the situation and her fellow Miami rapper.
“ALL day, Everyday… The Queen,” wrote Trina on Instagram, as she shared a video of Beyoncé and Jay-Z performing together.
