Kmart Finally Issues A Statement After Dumping Nicki Minaj’s Clothing Line

KMART SAYS IT HAPPENED A WHILE AGO!

(AllHipHop News) Kmart has issued a comment on their decision to drop Nicki Minaj’s clothing line from their retail stores.

News broke of Nicki’s line being dumped over the weekend, just as Remy Ma was unleashing her diss track “shETHER” upon Nicki.

Reps for Kmart said the line had been discontinued at the end of 2016, even though the story just leaked out over the weekend.

“Kmart is thrilled that we were the first retail partner to create a custom apparel line for Nicki Minaj. From the development of the line to showcasing it in stores to designing exclusive capsule collections, we have enjoyed a positive relationship with Nicki Minaj and her team over the last three years. As our partnership came to a close in 2016, we would like to thank Nicki Minaj for being a great partner and wish her continued success in her future endeavors.”

As a result of the weak sales, item in the clothing Nicki’s line have been slashed by over 50%.

Most of her garments are sitting in the clearance section on Kmart’s website. But the lousy sales are not necessarily due to lack of demand for Nicki’s line.

Kmart has been struggling for years and is scheduled to shut down 150 stores in 2017.
