Nicki Minaj wants confirmation on SZA's age after days of consistently going at the singer-songwriter via social media.

On Wednesday (July 16), in response to Nicki calling her a "fake girl's girl," the five-time Grammy-winning singer posted a message that allegedly showed Minaj requesting a collaboration with her through an unspecified third party.

The insinuation offended Minaj, who began to reenact the conversation on Thursday (July 17) with multiple X posts that targeted SZA and Top Dawg Entertainment president Terrence "Punch" Henderson.

One post that Nicki reshared shows a t-shirt with the following printed on the front: "Hey it’s Nicki. Minaj? No. The knickerbockers. We’d like to know if when you play basketball if your freckles wipe off when you sweat. Otherwise we’d like to offer you a once in a lifetime chance to play for the NEW YORK KNICKS."

In another, Minaj called SZA "the lady that sang on Black Panther" and made a dig that she "used to sing in English." SZA collaborated with Kendrick Lamar on 2018 track "All the Stars," which was on the Black Panther soundtrack.

"And she's in her mid 40s right," the Pink Friday 2 artist continued. "If not I need to see her [birth] certificate."

"Yall know she lies chi," Minaj concluded.

SZA, who's 35, hasn't acknowledged Minaj's more recent posts but has been called "ugly" and an "odd little weirdo" by Minaj throughout the rapper's tirade. The beef kicked off on Tuesday (July 15), after the "Snooze" vocalist was alleged to have called Minaj a "silly goose" for seemingly taking a swipe at Punch. Since then, Minaj hasn't let up on her posts, and has shaded SZA on Queen Radio.
