·56 min·5 clips

Nicki Minaj felt attacked by Megan Thee Stallion's lyrics referencing Megan's Law and sexual predators in her family.

The episode begins with hosts Maria, Catarina, and Michelle introducing guest Madalena Joaquim to discuss musical beefs, setting a playful tone. They start with number five: Azealia Banks, noting her feuds with Taylor Swift, airlines, and a Reddit page listing her targets alphabetically. Number four is Mariah Carey vs. Eminem, focusing on Carey's song 'Obsessed' as a response to Eminem's claims, with debate over who won. Number three is Nicki Minaj vs. Megan Thee Stallion, detailing how Megan's song 'Hiss' referenced Megan's Law and sexual predators, which Minaj took personally, leading to social media clashes and diss tracks like 'Bigfoot'. Number two is Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake, covering the background of the 'big three' (Kendrick, Drake, J. Cole), Kendrick's refusal to collaborate, and the strategic release of diss tracks like 'Euphoria' and 'Not Like Us', which used AI voices of Tupac and won a Grammy. Number one is Kanye West vs. Taylor Swift, recounting the 2009 MTV VMA stage interruption, subsequent songs like 'Famous', Kim Kardashian's involvement, and Swift's album 'Reputation' as a response. The hosts conclude by thanking the guest and signing off.
