Back in the early 2000's prior to finding fame, Nicki Minaj, was in a group called The Hood$tars with Safaree Samuels, 7even Up and Lou$tar.
According to 7even, Nicki was really about that street life at the time and was willing to be the getaway driver once when he robbed someone.
"She was a 'G.' Nicki ain't soft, man," 7even explained during a new Vlad TV interview. "It was a episode one night where we were by (a New York City club) in Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. I seen a mark. I said, 'Listen. let me go handle my business.' She was like, 'Yo, just hurry up.' She was with it, so I was surprised.
"I actually [knew the victim]," he continued. "This is 2004 ... there was no cameras around. A lot of people wasn't telling at the time, so it was lit. [I didn't have a] gun. I yapped him. That's how I was at the time. Gun or no gun. The nigga chased me down and she spinned off. And we busted down. That's how that went. We ran a red light and everything."

Kodak Black was back in court for a 2nd day on Friday, April 21, facing several probation violation charges.
The 19-year old "No Flocking" rapper, born Dieuson Octave, is accused of disrupting and getting kicked out of a court mandated anger management class, attacking a bartender at a Miami strip club and leaving the state of Florida to attend an Adrien Broner boxing match without permission from his probation officer.
Jennifer Cunnigham
Bartender Jennifer Cunningham testified on the 1st day of the trial that Black allegedly attacked her while at Club Lexx gentlemen's club. But under cross ecamination she admitted to not seeking medical help until after she had contacted a lawyer.
Cunningham also admitted to calling Black's manager threatening a lawsuit.
Tonya Durham
On Friday, Cunningham's testimony was undermined by another bartender who was working that night.
Tonya Durham told Broward Circuit Judge Michael Lynch, that it was Cunningham who attacked Black and that he was in a defensive posture, leaning back with his hands up.
Durham said she did not see the rapper kick Cunningham.
Black has already turned down a plea deal from prosecutors. He is staring at up to 8 years in prison if found guilty of violating his probation. Since a probation violation does not require a jury to determine guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, Lynch will have to make the determination.
