However, the rapper claims it was all a big misunderstanding. In a since-deleted tweet, Lanez claimed that his fingers slipped on his touch screen and accidentally liked the tweet.
He added that Nicki Minaj is "favourite female rapper" and accused eagle-eyed social media users of stirring the pot when it came to his "honest mistake".
"@NICKIMINAJ is my favorite female rapper..I don’t know what y’all are trying to do this morning ..I made a honest mistake on a touch screen phone," he wrote.
"Anytime I’ve had an issue, y’all know me for being vocal . I wouldn’t go like a random tweet nor use my platform to insult the queen."
Meanwhile, both Nicki and Cardi are working on their upcoming albums.
Minaj recently teased a potential follow-up to her critically-acclaimed debut album 'Pink Friday ', while Cardi confirmed her sophomore album is well on the way.
