On Monday, Nicki Minaj defended Will Smith after he slapped Chris Rock, and now she's going to bat for Ari Lennox.
The Dreamville singer's birthday was on Saturday, March 26, but she didn't enjoy herself.
"To recognize that those friends were never friends at all. Those loved ones were never loved ones," tweeted Ari. "It's heartbreaking reality and many people that gave a f*ck aren't here anymore. You think you have all this time and you simply don't ... Probably the most depressing birthday to date."
Sadly, the Pressure singer received some negative comments after her tweets, so she blocked some people, and that's when Nicki came to her defense.

"Why should this woman have to block ppl on her bday?" wrote Nicki. "Y'all be running some of the best talents out this game then wonder why this sh*t so fkn dry! Idk what y'all said & IDC. You're beautiful & I love your voice. Gotta learn how to just be tunnel vision to the love mama."
Ari thanked the Young Money rapper afterward and that was that.
