SZA has told Nicki Minaj to "bark at the wall" after she launched a tirade against her - including branding her a "dead dog".

The beef between the music stars began after Nicki took aim at SZA's manager, Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE) president Terrence "Punch" Henderson, with jibes such as "Tiny D*** Executive".

Nicki then went on a rampage accusing SZA of bullying huge stars such as Beyonce, Rihanna and herself, re-posting alleged old tweets SZA made about them.

One read: "Beyonce lookin more and more like madonna every day! Coulda swore she was black at one point... #justsayin (sic)"

Referring to the resurfaced posts, Nicki wrote on X: "Me after I suck some good zik. Guarantee you wouldn't fight a man. We have every tweet of your incessant bullying, lying, and more.

"Your name was added to that s*** list s****y drawers.

"Same thing that make you laugh make you…s***."

Kill Bill star SZA had posted the following around the same time, but later claimed it was not aimed at Nicki, writing: "Mercury retrograde .. don't take the bait lol silly goose."

Nicki did think it was about her and proceeded to call SZA a "dead dog".

The Starships hitmaker also once again called for justice for Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez' daughter, Demoree Hadley, who accused her mom of wrongfully having her admitted to a mental health facility.

She wrote: "Go draw your freckles back on bookie #JusticeForDemoree #DepositionPerez Liar liar pants on fire. Sounding like a fkng dead dog."

Nicki has been campaigning against Perez - who was pardoned by President Donald Trump in 2021, after being arrested for conspiracy to distribute narcotics - for some time now.

After being trolled by Nicki's fans - who are known as Barbz - SZA pointed out her successes and penned about her joint Grand National Tour with Kendrick Lamar: "I get bullied by millions online every day then step my a** out onna packed stadium tour where ppl show me REAL love . IN REAL LIFE . My parents are healthy and I'm the most successful I ever been . GET SOME F****** PERSPECTIVE n BARK AT THE WALL !!! (sic)"
