Nicki, whose parents moved to the United States from Trinidad before she joined them in the U.S. two years later, has spoken previously about cocaine use and domestic violence at her childhood home in Jamaica, Queens, including an episode in which her father tried to burn down her house.

In an interview with The New York Times in 2015, Nicki was asked if she was abused by her father.

“No. He was just abusive,” she said. “I would always hear him yelling and cursing, always. And it made me feel it was the way to interact because that’s how I saw him interacting.’’

In a 2010 interview with Rolling Stone Nicki stated that as a child, she “always felt like being rich would cure everything,” allowing her to take care of her mother so they could leave her father. “That was always what drove me,” she said.

“I was disappointed in my father,” she said. “i was afraid, very afraid, that something would happen to my moth­er. I had nightmares about it.”
