Craving to carve out her own lane in the rap game, Ming recently made the first move by releasing her new single "Thinking Bout U" featuring Iz LaMarr and Masika Kalysha earlier this month. After she first made her debut featuring on the Rakeem Love track "Do It Again" back in January.

Speaking to her relation to the self-proclaimed and publicly supported “Queen of Rap,” Li expressed that when it comes to her own music, she does not want to be known as Nicki Minaj's sister.

"We gon' clear this up, y'all," Ming proclaimed in an Instagram video. "So, basically, as I'm going to start my music career further on, I will no longer be known as Nicki Minaj's little sister. I am known as Ming Luan Li. And right now I'm going to do big things with myself without having to get secret help, any type of easy help. I'm going to work my way to the top.”

Love that for you Ming, best of luck.
