For those who don’t know, streamers have been raking in the cash as their followers purchase tokens and they’ll blurt out sayings associated with the items — essentially turning themselves into programmed robots.
The Barbz showered Minaj with items like hats, hand hearts, microphones and roses throughout and Nicki did her best to keep up.

“A TikTok gun it’s sending out money,” she intoned. “Oh, a microphone. Y’all know what I do on that mic, I destroy these hoes. Woah, a cake. Oh, something from medieval times. Get those motherfucking hands out of here I done told y’all that. Don’t get blocked, bitch. Hot dogs on the beach.”
Prices vary but typically each coin costs about $0.01. The newfound TikTok sensation has proved to be a lucrative opportunity to go viral for streamers with the likes of Pinkydoll and Cherry Crush leading the pack.
Nicki Minaj isn’t the only rapper joining in on the trend as Lil Pump has even been participating in the robotic flow for some fast cash. Pump can be heard repeating the catchy chorus from he and Kanye West’s “I Love It.”
As for Nicki, she’s working toward the release of her anticipated Pink Friday 2 album, which is slated to arrive on November 17.
She’s turned up the rollout and has been teasing new music. Nicki even claimed she wrote the “greatest” song of her career to date last week.

She continued: “My babies have to have this. The world needs this. Trees will grow. Y’all I’m in love. I’m not kidding y’all.”
