Ilyasah Shabazz, daughter of Malcolm X, shared her thoughts on Nicki Minaj using a photo of her father holding a gun on the cover of her "Lookin A**" single cover. She got backlash for using the image, which was taken after Malcolm felt he needed to protect his family after their home was firebombed. Ilyasah responded to the situation by saying that Nicki didn't understand the message behind the photo.
During the conversation, Ilyasah also spoke about why people throughout history have pitted influential black leaders against one another, including Malcolm X and Martin Luther King. She explained that her family is actually close with the Kings, and Ilyasah added that she thought Coretta Scott King was her biological aunt when she was growing up.
