She's pissed Nicki did it first AND better. J.Lo's song is trash.

But JLo did it first, no?! She recorded it first and people knew about it before Anaconda. She released the teaser video before Anaconda too, so... Maybe she's pissed that someone released a song with a similar idea before she and her fucking slow team decided to release the song several weeks after FL peaked.

If she's pissed about anything she's pissed because she knows Nicki is more relevant right now than her so her song could potentially overshadow hers, but I still think this is all speculation.

It could be a number of things. No beef though. I think J.Lo's ex choreographed Anaconda at the VMA's and Fashion Rocks. She could be critiquing his work to him..

Y'all are doing the MOST. J.Lo was clapping at the beginning of the performance and greeted Nicki at the Vma's. What y'all want her to do in her seat, smile the entire time? She had the same face I did watching the performance and it was no shade.

This is quickly becoming one of my top 3 tracks from 2014. I don't understand all the hate it gets for its lyrics. What is wrong with everybody? Haven't they ever heard of the word f-u-n? I cannot imagine anyone listening to this and not burst a laugh or two or dance his ass off to the beat. Thank God Billboard added streaming to the Hot 100 cause it would be a shame if this only peaked somewhere in the top 15 when in fact it's one of the massive songs of the moment.

From Billboard:
People that "don't want none" of Nicki Minaj: Nicki Minaj's high school.
According to the rapper, her old high school in NYC doesn't want her coming back to speak to students. "I wanted to go back to my HS and speak to the students but the new principal declined," Nicki wrote on Twitter on Thursday (Sept. 11). "No need for me to inspire them, I guess. SMH...That school changed my life and I wanted to pay it forward to the students there now. I was really looking forward to it."
Sure, the "Anaconda" video isn't the most appropriate thing, but it's high school, not third grade. And speaking of -- Minaj has plenty of practice doing the "inspiration" routine. Remember when she stopped by Ellen to surprise 8-year-old Sophia Grace?

Lame ass principal.

Sir Mix-A-Lot on Nicki's smash:When did you learn that "Baby Got Back" was going to be sampled?Nicki got my manager's number through Universal, we both have deals with Universal, and she got on the phone with us one night. It was just old school vibing. She had this idea she was feeling pretty good about. We had already told her it was cool to use it [but] she called back saying she wanted to change something about the chorus. She ended up coming up with all the ideas. Next thing I know, the song was done. One thing I'll say about her is she's a beast in the studio. I think sometimes, people look at the sexy stuff and they think she shows up and does her vocal time and then leaves. No. That girl works hard. I was very impressed with her work ethic. Did she send you drafts or did she just ask your permission to sample it?I had just heard small little snippets of what was going on. After that, she didn't send anything, which was understandable, because things get leaked and it takes the edge off the release. I understood why there were no copies. When you first heard the record, what was your impression?I really like it and it's funny because some people tell me, 'oh, that's not the meaning of 'Baby Got Back,' because it's not "Baby Got Back!" Don't get me started on that. But, when I first heard it, I really liked it. I liked the change in feel. She did a lot of things, like at one point she really slowed the track down at half-speed and then went back to full speed. It was pretty fun. It was a cool song. The song was a big deal, but the official music video took it to a whole new stratosphere. What was your first impression of the video? I was like, "Damn!" I'm not exaggerating. I watched it probably 10 more times just to see who all these women were. But, I thought it was fun. What it said, on a more serious note, when I did "Baby Got Back," women with curves were not accepted. But that's a fact, they were not in the mainstream. We've come 180 degrees from that point. Not only is it accepted, but it's also expected, which I thought was cool. To me, if nothing else proved it, that did. It was a sexy ass video. I tell people all the time, I'm Mix-A-Lot. I'm not a rocket scientist. I'm not stupid, but I believe in having fun with music, and that's what I believe it was. It was fun. I had a ball with the song, I loved the song. What was really impressive, honestly, was the way she ramped up her social media efforts. Just being on the inside looking out… it was incredible to watch it ramping up and the fans retweeted her stuff. What's been this new generation's reaction to discovering your song? I'm sure there are plenty of people who are just learning about "Baby Got Back."I haven't run into those people yet. The people that I've been running into, they're like, 'it's about time someone used it.' These are kids. I'm talking about 17, 18-year old kids walking up, going, "I've been listening to that track since I was 12, about time somebody did it.’ But it's really interesting that YouTube has become everybody's music source, so people get to go backwards in time and listen to stuff. Have you thought about or been asked to perform the sample part with Nicki Minaj at any point?That was something that had been discussed but some things didn't work out on my end, on my side, really. It was timing, I was on tour and other stuff, but you know, my thing is, I don't want get in the way of the track. A lot of people say that we need to do something together, but in my opinion, this is Nicki's creation, this is her thing and getting in the way of it is not cool. I think it should be done the way she wants it done. If she asks, great. If she doesn't, it doesn't offend me at all. It's a beautiful thing. One thing you don't want is some fart getting in the way of the track. That's how I feel about it, and there are so many guys who have been where I've been and seem to resist the fact that the game is being pushed forward. But that's natural, it goes where it's supposed to go. So I love it, and I don't want to get in the way of it at all. She doesn't have to pay homage; she's already done that by redoing the track.

I can't deny it... I really love this song now lol. It's fun, catchy, and I don't know why it gets so much flack. I'm glad to see it steadily increasing.
Also, I think it's really stupid that she couldn't speak at her high school.

Still don't get why this is not blowing up. Well it's top 10 somewhere. The iTunes sales should match higher charting.
