Ming recently spoke about being the sister of a rap icon and said she does not want to be known as Nicki Minaj's sister when it comes to her own music.

"We gon' clear this up, y'all," she says in the Instagram video below. "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 Luanli. 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."
