But I don't fuck with horses since Christopher Reeves (Uh-oh)
14(Uh-oh, uh-oh)
15Gotta be careful when I dip, it's flips all in the whip
Block noteTurns a luxury-horse boast into a Megan subliminal
TargetMegan Thee Stallion
MeaningWhat it means: Nicki first prices the horsepower of her vehicles, then says she avoids ‘horses’ by invoking Christopher Reeve's riding accident. Why it was said: In the wake of tension with Megan Thee Stallion, the abrupt rejection of horses was widely heard as nameplay on Megan's stage identity; embedding it inside a car boast gives Nicki deniability while still making the association easy to catch.
Wordplay‘Seven-hundred on them horses’ begins with vehicle horsepower, pivots to literal horses through Christopher Reeve, and then carries the implied Megan Thee Stallion reference.
Context‘Red Ruby Da Sleeze’ was widely read as containing subliminal shots at Megan Thee Stallion and Latto, following their separate public tensions with Nicki Minaj. The interpretations remain tied to specific wordplay—especially horse imagery and copying claims—rather than treating every boast as a diss.

71Caught 'em with they hand out, tryna catch the sauce (Uh-oh, uh-oh)
72Thierry Mugler flow, tryna cut the cloth
Block notePortrays the target as controlled by others
TargetMegan Thee Stallion
MeaningWhat it means: In “Six-hundred horse, how you gon' catch the boss?,” Nicki Minaj depicts Megan Thee Stallion as dependent on a label, executive, crew leader, or gatekeeper rather than acting independently. Why it was said: ‘Red Ruby Da Sleeze’ was widely read as containing subliminal shots at Megan Thee Stallion and Latto, following their separate public tensions with Nicki Minaj. The interpretations remain tied to specific wordplay—especially horse imagery and copying claims—rather than treating every boast as a diss. The accusation attacks autonomy by suggesting that Megan Thee Stallion's career choices and even the feud itself are being directed by somebody with greater power.
