Nicki Minaj spoke out against the Recording Academy for moving her hit Super Freaky Girl, out of the Grammy's rap category and placing it into a pop one. 

However, the 39-year-old rapper clarified that she would still attend music's biggest night if she received a nomination. 

"I feel like I am in a really good space and therefore, why not?" she said in an exclusive interview. 

Her Instagram Stories, however, suggested otherwise. 

According to the artist, the social media posts weren't as serious as some may think. "I think sometimes people think that I'm more ‘angry' than I am," she said. "I could be heated about something right now and five minutes later, I'll forget about what I just spoke about." 

At the same time, Nicki isn't afraid to speak when it comes to her experience in the music industry. "I put in a lot of work," she said. 

"I own the right to speak on my own workplace, my own culture. I owned it. I am so much more into music than just a few raps or lines on the song."
