In “Red Ruby Da Sleeze,” Nicki Minaj brags about her close connections with gang members and exploiting violence and follows on forward by taking shots at stars who she despises, such as Donna Karan and Latto. This also marks her first 2023 track, following Nicki’s erotic August 2022 single “Super Freaky Girl.” Her single also samples Lumidee’s August 2003 track “Never Leave You (Uh Oooh, Uh Oooh).”
Despite the violence and drama, she surfaced sections of the track throughout social media. On February 23, 2023, Nicki teased a piece of the single on Instagram and TikTok, announcing its release date and title:
RedRubyDaSleeze 3/3
😎👑🥢🦄♥️
After many teasers, she revealed the artwork of the track and a chapter worth of promotion of the song.
On March 3, 2023, she finally announced the official release on an Instagram post with the caption:
RedRubyDaSleeze is out now. ♥️🥢
