Robert Maraj, the 64-year-old father of Nicki Minaj, died Saturday after being struck in a hit-and-run incident in Mineola, New York Friday night. TMZ first reported the news, which has been confirmed by the Nassau County Police Department. Maraj, who lived in Mineola, was struck while walking around 6 p.m ET, and taken to the hospital where he later passed away. The driver of the vehicle reportedly fled the scene "Without a meaningful description from witnesses.” Minaj, who was born Onika Tanya Maraj, has yet to publicly address the death of her father. The singer has previously described Maraj as violent towards her mother, telling Rolling Stone in 2010 that her father once set fire to their home with her mother inside. "I remember when my mother would let my father be violent with her and she always brings up this story about when I was a little girl and I would stand in front of my mother," the singer said, demonstrating how she put her arms out for protection, in her 2018 documentary Queen. "That's why maybe some people would describe me as abrasive or bitchy or whatever because I vowed from that age no man would ever abuse me, call me out my name, treat me like that. Then all of a sudden, that was my life.” Source | Summary

I shot my shot and he said no to me but that was only the beginning
None
The gym instructor left me on a machine and the next moment, this tall and well-built guy came to use the machine next to me. From that moment on, all I did was to look around and see where he was. An hour or so later, I turned around and couldn't find him anywhere. When he didn't come around, I lost the urge to train. As fate would have it, one day he walked up to me and said, "That's not how to do it. You'll end up hurting your muscles." I said, "Help me. What's the right way?" He said, "Bend your knees and straighten your back." I was struggling. A month or two later, I joined him in his car as he drove around town. He didn't know how to treat me and he didn't know how to handle the knowledge of me loving him. One evening after gym he asked me, "Can I drop you home?" I said, "I can walk. Is part of the exercise." He insisted but I walked. "He started chasing me around at the gym. He would force his way to train with me and force himself to drop me home. When I don't go to the gym, he would come to my house and force me to dress up and go with me. I pretended I didn't like it but boy I enjoyed every bit of the attention he gave me. He would say,"It's a Friday night, why don't we sit out for a while" I would be so overjoyed in my mind but I would force a frown and say, 'I'm tired. One day he said, "She's no more in my life." I said, "What happened?" He said, "It's the same issue. Long-distance and the mistrust. She said she couldn't take it any longer and I said I couldn't take it any longer too. We broke up." I said, "I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you're not bleeding on the inside?" He said, "That relationship died long ago. We were only keeping the ghost around. I didn't feel any hurt or whatsoever. It's good she's gone. She's happy and I'm fine.” I wanted to jump and fold my arms around his neck and kiss the hell out of him but that little voice in my head kept saying to me, "Girl hold yourself together. Don't be stupid. Keep the charade going, it's fun.” I couldn't hold myself together the next time he was around. We wanted to have a very large one with everyone at the gym present but the order was to have only a few people present. We thought of postponing the wedding but our hearts couldn't wait a day longer. We got married in the presence of those who could be around and since then, we've never stopped looking into each other's eyes. Source | Summary
